Tolkien quote of the day:

"Arrow!" said the bowman. "Black arrow! I have saved you to the last. You have never failed me and always I have recovered you. I had you from my father and he from of old. If ever you came from the forges of the true king under the Mountain, go now and speed well!".............The black arrow sped straight from the string, straight for the hollow by the left breast where the foreleg was flung wide. In it smote and vanished, barb, shaft and feather, so fierce was its flight. With a shriek that deafened men, felled trees and split stone, Smaug shot spouting into the air, turned over and crashed down from on high in ruin.

Fire and Water, The Hobbit

bullet A Matter of Perspective by cathleen Last Updated: 9/17/2008

bullet Leaves of the Wood by Lissas Elves Last Updated: 9/5/2008
A place for unrelated vignettes and short stories about the lives of ordinary Wood-elves. Probably only interesting to tree-huggers like me.

bullet Just Rocks by Calenlass Last Updated: 9/5/2008
Even simple things such as rocks can hold some importance. Featuring Estel and Erestor. Written for OAA Prompt 127—Stone. This counts as a normal fic, however, because I couldn’t make the 500 mark. Complete. (I'm sorry if this has been reuploaded; something happened to it and it disappeared)

bullet No by Antane Last Updated: 8/30/2008
"All this last day Frodo had not spoken, but had walked half-bowed, often stumbling, as if his eyes no longer saw the way before his feet. Sam guessed that among all their pains he bore the worst, the growing weight of the Ring, a burden on the body and a torment to his mind." A glimpse into that torment. The Red Book is very briefly quoted/paraphrased from within the story.

bullet Nesting by Antane Last Updated: 8/26/2008
Nesting takes place in the fifth month of pregnancy or so I have been told, but this time it's Frodo's who has got it bad (and Rose some too) as he prepares Bag End for the birth of his niece. A good amount of fluff and some angst. A birthday mathom for our beloved Queen Galdadriel! Happy day, ammelda! Melinyel and God bless! *hugs*

Frodo and Gandalf saw Bilbo settled in at Tol Eressea. Now they are back, and Frodo's feeling much more himself than he has in a very long time. (The story has been complete for a while, but I just discovered that one chapter had been hidden by accident, probably when I was making some minor edits! I apologize to any who missed seeing Chapter 15.)
