| Elfique |
Author has written 34 stories for Silmarillion, Lord of the Rings, and Labyrinth. A Rohanian who eats like a hobbit and wishes she was an elf ;) I am of the female variety and living happily with a very nice man in a very nice little home full of fun books, music and films that refuse to stop inspiring me. I like: jogs, dogs, walks, visiting castles/historic sites, history, the countryside and wide open fields/spaces, forests, the beautiful English landscape in general, tea, reading, cooking, horse riding, my hugely ignoble steed (bless), photography, FF7-9, pear cider, music, breakfast, decorating, newcastle brown ale, writing, gigs, eating, whiskey... Crabbies Alcoholic Ginger Beer!!! Most of my older dated work is, as you can expect, not all that spectacular - not to say that I'm not proud of them since they were great efforts at the time and I still think they have their worth, and also, not to say I think any of my work is stirling stuff but you get the drift... its very tempting to delete a lot of my older work but I feel I should leave it for history's sake. The things posted within the last year or so are, unsurprisingly, what I would consider my best work to date. Awards: The Unspoken - MEFA 2011 Honourable Mention and Smaug's Treasure I enjoy reading: I enjoy listening to: Things I particularly enjoy watching: Favourite fictional pairings/couples: 2/6/11: Organising a wedding has taken over my life. Hopefully I'll write again soon, if not hiatus till next May! | |||||||
