Bio: Mainly write Silmarillion stories, but also a fair number of LOTR-based stories. The project that has taken a lot of my time and attention over the past period is my Maedhros/Fingon story cycle which includes, among others, my introductory story (Maitimo and Findekano) and my novella (A New Day).
28 PUBLISHED STORIES:
The Princess and the Horse Lord
Poetry Serial Rated:Adult
A canon-mindful AU story of love set in a time of war and its aftermath. These canon characters, Men and Elves, are often presented as stereotypically attractive, noble, and gifted. In this tale, interaction with a dramatically changed Arda reveals them to be flawed, passionate, funny, and conflicted as well.

Endurance
General Rated:Adult
(Although the story is rated Adult overall, the individual chapters vary in ratings from G to R. Each will be rated individually in the chapter title space.) A related series of drabbles, fixed-length ficlets, and short-short stories written in response to daily prompts of the 2009 Silmarillion Writers' Guild Back to Middle-earth Month challenge. They are part of my ongoing story cycle centered upon the House of Finwë during the Time of the Trees and the First Age. The tales are all of characters who strived and loved under the doom pronounced upon the Noldor.

I Hate You
Action Rated:Adult
Written in response to the Silmarillion Writers' Guild Back to Middle-earth Month challenge, prompt for Day 24: “Choose your favorite line or quotation from a non-Tolkien source.” This is a story referenced more than once but never developed in my short novel A New Day. Inspired by Dawn Felagund’s ficlet “Hatred,” it is an account of a low point in the relationship of Maedhros and Fingon before they left Valinor. (Slash.)

Full Brothers in Blood
General Rated:All
Gift for Dawn Felagund for Holidays 2007. Written to following prompt: "Fingon and Turgon, younger, in Valinor. You hint about their relationship--or lack thereof--a lot, and I find myself thinking on this when reading your stories. So I'd like to see a scene between them. It doesn't have to be serious or even revealing; just a hint of what there was between two brothers in Aman."

Early Winter at Himring Hill
General Rated:Teens
Fingon visits Maedhros at Himring Hill, after the Dagor Aglareb during the watchful peace of the Siege of Angband, with a mild implication of slash only. It is a lighthearted look at a subject usually written angst-filled and oozing with tragic implications; this one may have bit of foreshadowing for Silmarillion geeks, but is primarily joyful.

Notes: In response to the September '07 Silmarillion Writers Guild challenge for a story of forbidden lore. Also, must give credit to Keiliss for borrowing elements of the character of Elrond as a young adult from her lovely novel, Even Quicker Than Doubt.

Fingon's Heir
General Rated:Teens
