Biography:   For various reasons, Embers is the last story I will post here. My main archive is SWG, and my profile there is in my links list.

I've been a LotR fan since before the movies came out. Less than a year after I finished LotR, I read the Silmarillion and fell in love, though I've only recently become involved in fandom. I'm partial to the Elves in general and the Fëanorians in particular.

I write mostly Silmarillion fics, and am not terribly prolific because I do not post Works in Progress, though I do have multiple stories in various states. I am primarily a character writer and most of my stories focus on Maglor or Elrond.

Constructive criticism is always welcome, though please be aware I do use some British spellings.

Due to spam, my email isn't available here. The easiest ways to reach me are via my LJ or the contact form on SWG.
