For we are attempting to conquer Sauron with the Ring. And we shall (it seems) succeed. But the penalty is, as you will know, to breed new Saurons, and slowly turn Men and Elves into Orcs. No that in real life things are as clear cut as in a story, and we started out with a great many Orcs on our side.....Well, there you are: a hobbit amongst the Urukhai. Keep up your hobbitry in heart, and think that all stories feel like that when you are in them. You are inside a very great story!

Dreams of Gold by Lindelea
While I'm not writing new material at present, I went to a "green concert" last night, and it made me want to post something in honour of those who wear the green. This ficlet is part of a larger work, unfinished and unpublished (except for one chapter that was tacked on to another story as an epilogue of sorts). This part, which can stand alone, seems to be three or four chapters long; don't know, as am cutting and pasting a relatively small part from a very bulky draft. In any event, the story is a snippet out of a longer Quest, regarding hobbits who left the Shire behind to travel Southwards, to Caradhras, Moria, Parth Galen, and beyond. Think good thoughts; perhaps the whole thing will be posted by the 17th.

Tall Tales by Misty
Bilbo tells a story to a young friend. A/N: If the tale told here seems to differ from that in the Hobbit, keep in mind that Bilbo is the storyteller, and he has been known to change details to make himself look better. This was written for the weekly challenge on the AragornAngst list for prompt # 3: Riddle. There is a maximum word count of 500 words for the challenge. This story has exactly that. This story takes place in the year 2943 of the Third Age, a year after Bilbo returns home after the events in "The Hobbit", when Estel is 12 years old. // quote from the Hobbit //

Thranduil's Begetting Day by daw the minstrel
Men and Elves gather to celebrate Thranduil's Begetting Day. A cast of thousands, mostly OC. And, I fear, a descent into farce. My apologies.
