I am a housewife, musician and aspiring writer who would genuinely like to be published someday. I am a mother of three grown children, am owned by two cats (both outdoor kitties for the time being.) I've been writing since I was 10 and wrote fan fiction long before such a thing was even recognized as such. I currently write for the Tolkien universe (Lord of the Rings, Silmarillion) under this authorname, and for several years previous to this, wrote for The Pretender under another ID.

I usually have several novel-length stories in development at any one time, both fan fiction and original works, but I generally refuse to post them (the fan fiction ones) until they are completed and through the beta/concrit process for polishing. In case FFN glitches, readers can find my current updates either at my LiveJournal at http colon slash slash aearwen2 dot livejournal dot com slash or at my private archive at http colon slash slash bennasaearwen dot yolasite dot com.
