About Me

I have been a member of the Tolkien fanfic fandom since 2003, and in that time have developed a deep love for the races created by J.R.R. Tolkien, especially as expanded by the "ancient history" of The Silmarillion. While I primarily write Lord of the Rings- and The Hobbit-based fic, it is almost always influenced by The Silmarillion and others of Tolkien's books - sometimes explicitly, other times only implicitly in the assumptions I have made about my characters. Through my use of The Silmarillion to augment my conception of Third Age events and races, I have fallen in love with The Silmarillion in its own right.

I tend to not write much Silmfic because of lack of time and some most insistent LOTR-based muss, but I love reading it and expanding my horizons in that wa. I have also written a few ficlets and short stories which I look forward to sharing with like-minded folk: that's you.

In real life I study philosophy, and as such I tend to like "deep thoughts" and themes. That is what really has won me over to the Silmarillion most fully, the emotional and intellectual depth that can be found in its pages. While I doubt I will ever leave the LOTR corner of the fandom entirely, I do find myself increasingly drawn to the earlier ages - much like JRRT himself, I suppose! I hope you like my stories, and I look forward to enjoying yours.
