FIRST PLACE in the 2008 MEFA Awards! One decision made differently - the Three Hunters run through that second night of their chase after the Orcs rather than rest - and everything changes. Well, not everything. They're merely captured by the Orcs like Merry and Pippin. Not in the plan. One decision changed doesn't change one's destiny, however. How each of them are to reach the fate destiny has in store for them is a bit peskier, though... In this AU story, Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli are ca...

FIRST PLACE in the 2008 MEFA Awards! A series of AU vignettes in which each member of the Fellowship hears the call of the Ring - and answers it. My take on the big What-If. Varying degrees of angst, drama, action, and perhaps a little more angst. I can't thank Thundera Tiger enough for all her help and patience with this story. Without her guidance and encouragement, this story would never have seen the light of day, nor would I have considered posting any of my writing....

...might not still be a drabble. This is the place where I deposit what passes for drabbles for me, though I rarely can keep a drabble even close to 100 words. More often you'll find drabbles-and-a-half, or double-drabbles. Nevertheless, I will be posting snippets of various sorts, characters, and whatever pops into my head. Some are entries into a Yule Mathoms Challenge, others are entries for the "Back to Middle-earth" month at There 'n' Back Again forum. Please feel free to leave a comment ...

WINNER 2007 MEFA Award! In FotR, we read: “Their farewells had been said in the great hall by the fire, and they were only waiting now for Gandalf, ... Bilbo huddled in a cloak stood silent on the doorstep beside Frodo. Aragorn sat with his head bowed to his knees; only Elrond knew fully what this hour meant to him.” What did Tolkien mean by that line? What did that hour, that moment mean to Aragorn? What was going through his head? What did Elrond know that no other did? This vignette is my...

An AU vignette of one of the Fellowship receiving bad news. No, it didn't happen, but I was suddenly struck with this scene in my head and decided to take the plunge. It's my first post to HASA and first LotR story. Please be gentle! Thanks to all those who have generously offered their feedback. I've now reposted the edited story. Feedback still welcome!
