Author has written 25 stories for Lord of the Rings, Silmarillion, Collateral, Old Kingdom Trilogy, Pirates of the Caribbean, Forgotten Realms, Harry Potter, Repo! The Genetic Opera, Buffy: The Vampire Slayer, and House, M.D.. 1 September 2009 The newest chapter of my most recent work-in-progress, Invictus, is going but going slowly. I have every intention of seeing this story to its completion. However, real life has been hammering me with rather a lot of changes lately, one of which being I have far much less time to devote to writing than I would like. Thank you to all my readers and especially my reviewers from the bottom of my heart for your boundless patience while I scramble after Aragorn, Haldir, Elrohir and Elladan. Most of the following tales are novel-length with a few short stories sprinkled liberally in. They are based around the largely speculative friendship between Aragorn and Haldir, my concept of which is eternally evolving. A few vignettes from other fandoms are thrown in for flavor as well.
