What hail and well met! Welcome to my wee little boring profile page!

I welcome feedback in every form (including, but not limited to, secret whistle). When my health allows, I love to write back! I don't use Author's Notes to reply to anonymous reviews, though, so if you have a question or want to discuss my writing choices please be sure to sign in. I relish constructive criticism, but abusive language and incoherent ranting will not be tolerated. Such ”feedback” will be deleted or reported. Thank you for helping to foster healthy interactions in the gracious spirit of Professor Tolkien.
