About Me

Greetings, my fellow Tolkien lovers. My name is Kaylee Arafinwiel, and though I'm in my thirties I don't feel like it. Well, maybe my thirties if I was an elfling. Anyway, speaking of elves, Galadriel is one of my favorites (obviously) but the line of Oropher is my favorite to write with my friend Emma. I've branched out into writing other Silmfic though, so I hope you will enjoy.
