The Barbarians at the Gates Blogathon is Here!


Welcome to the Barbarians at the Gates blogathon, hosted by myself and Quiggy over at The Midnite Drive-In!  We're here to celebrate "sword-and-sorcery" stories in all their unique glory.  

Once again, the blogathon rules:

1. Anything that fits the idea of "sword-and-sorcery" will be allowed. 

2. Only one person/post per film or idea (but you can get around that a little bit).  

3. We would like to limit the entries per person to 3 (if you are that ambitious). 

When your blogathon post is live, simply leave a link to it in the comments on either this post or the similar one over at The Midnite Drive-In, and we'll add you to the official roster.  And then take a few minutes to enjoy each others' posts!
