Fadesintothewesthide bio
 Author has written 26 stories for Lord of the Rings, and Silmarillion. It's been a while since I have updated this bio. Mae Govannen! It seems the fandom is reinvigorated by the new Hobbit movies. While I love Tolkien's work I am looking forward to PJ and CO.s take on our lovely woodland friends. Most of my stories are elf-centric. I am currently rewriting/revisiting my longest story- Creation Song- as the first version needed lots of work, had a lot of plot holes, and was not provided a fitting end. I blame the times I was writing for that. I have been a Thranduil fan since I first read the Hobbit ages ago as a child. It will be interesting to see how folks react to him now that the brilliant Lee Pace is portraying him in the movies. Hopefully we get more thoughtful pieces written about this fantastic Lord. PEACE & Namarie! |

Starlight: the Needle and the Sword by brigitte51 reviews
According to the Silmarillion, Fingon was married and was the father of Gil-Galad. So here's the story, or at least my take on it. From the early years of the Exile till the end of the 1st Age. Maedhros will pop in from time to time as well as other characters. I've added Gil-Galad as one of the 'main' characters (from chapter 16). And it's now complete!
