LJ Community: The Elves in My Head

To my great annoyance, the latest round of code sweeps has eliminated all of the section breaks in my stories. It will take quite a bit of time to fix this, especially since I'll have to fix quite a lot of old code that ffnet has progressively disabled over the past six years. (No, I'm not annoyed, I'm furious, since the elimination of section breaks makes some stories incomprehensible.)

I've created a page for references to secondary sources regarding Tolkien's languages and mythology. ff.net now strips even partial URLs out of stories, so you may come across some rather strange results in my reference notes. Those URLs are now listed on my homepage under 'Tolkien Sources'. (Updated 04/22/2007 - all links are in working order.)

Rîn is currently undergoing extensive changes. There are some errors I need to fix, as I did not have access to all of the HOME volumes when I started that story. (Um, very much on hold.) I've left 'Til the Day I Die on the site as evidence that I've learnt something about writing over the past few years.
