Fanfiction Book Club: Explicit Relationships

Fanfiction Book Club - Explicit Sexual Relationships, 4-5 June 2022

Sexual relationships are a creative inspiration for many authors in the Tolkien fandom, and have often been a topic for much discussion and debate. This is our chance to celebrate the imagination of fanfiction authors and how the community envisions sexual relationships among the various peoples of Arda.

This book club will be held on Saturday, June 4 and Sunday, June 5 in the #fanfiction-book-club-nsfw channel on the SWG's Discord server.

** Though it is not the main subject of the story, this fic contains implied/referenced rape/non-con. Readers who wish to participate but want to skip this can stop at the sentence beginning “Still, they could steal a few more minutes together before he sneaked back to his guest room." Discussion will be moderated and participants will be asked to spoiler using || on either side of any text mentioning this content.
