[dwimordene_2011]

Title: And End Not In Grief or Anger
Author: Dwimordene
Summary: The end of the affair.
Characters: Halbarad, ELedhril (Thorondis)
Warnings: AU, a vignette to add to the “Blessings” challenge at T_W. This will make much more sense if you've read my Semper Fidelis, Aliana's sequel, Triage; and either my AU Blessings challenge entries or Resurrection

I think, for you, this is fluffy - no one dies, and a character even feels marginally better at the end than at the start...

[dwimordene_2011]

Heh. Yes, well, fluff is a relative term, right?

[mrowe]

As far as I know, it is...

I printed "Semper Fidelis" and "Resurrection" a while ago. LOVED them. This is a BEAUTIFUL continuation. *sniff*

ps - I'm curious if you're ever going to finish Dynasty? - I still come back to that and read it.

Considering that you described "Blessings" as pure sugar with caramel on top or something like that...
I think this can just about count as fluffy.

Hey, just wanted to let you know that I'm sort of discovering most of your works now (I ended up out of LOTR fandom for a while due to life, but had discovered Isabeau and Altariel's works back when the LOTR section on ff.n had only about 200 fics, and loved what I read, but didn't end up reading a whole lot of yours for some reason--maybe they hadn't all been written yet, don't know). And because they all sort of link together, and I keep recommending them to everyone, I'm organizing everything in one super long timeline (all the way back to pre-First Age, even), with the ultimate goal of creating epubs of them all. You can see more of the discussion here.

Altariel said you weren't on much, but I wanted to at least let you know what I'm attempting, and why: because I have quite a few friends who got into LOTR but never discovered your works because they were probably buried underneath the onslaught of bad fics spawned by the film renditions. Said friends look at the list of stories (by four different people, no less) and are

Hi Dorawen,

No, I don't mind at all. As they used to say, the good of a story is in its being read, so if you want to do EPUBS or what not, that's fine. I'm not around much - would love to, but have other things I prioritize more that keep me busy. I'm glad you've enjoyed my stories, and thanks for letting me know in re: what you have in mind.

Ha, I didn't finish one sentence in all my jumping around and editing. I also meant to say that the other trouble is sometimes I can't tell whether some story happened before or after some event, and if I know that, I can place it quite readily.
