Summary
The music school AU no-one knew they needed till now!
Éowyn Earl is the star horn player in her year, simultaneously wrestling with the demons of her past, struggling with her current crush on violinist Aragorn Walker, and wondering what to do about the hideous professor Wykeham King who is making everyone’s lives miserable. Meanwhile, in the background, gradually coming into focus, is a very talented pianist, one Faramir Hurin.
A journey through healing, redemption, friendship - and a bit of revenge. Plus a very slow burn relationship. And a love-letter to my favourite orchestral instrument.
Inspired by ElrondScribe's brilliant Silmarillion music school AU.
No resemblance to any actual musicians intended, considerable liberties with my representation of the RNCM. Indeterminate time-frame: a bit like the Manchester of my teens (and its often unfortunate social attitudes); in other respects more up-to-date. The Mancunian rain is entirely accurate, however, and I make no apology for that.
Complete with playlist and epic author's notes.
NB - rating increased to E. I will mark the chapters in question so you can skip those bits (if you want M).

Summary
A Christmas tradition, you ask? Well, since about last Tuesday (to quote Elfhelm’s good lady).
Cinderella, as retold by Rossini and re-retold by me. With Éowyn as Cinders and Faramir as the prince.
Take Rossini's twist, where Cinders and the Prince meet in disguise and fall in love. Plus his addition of a wicked stepfather. Add in a dash of Barber of Seville style evil guardian, a bit of The Horse and his Boy kidnapped-as-a-child type plot device, and a pinch of Twelfth Night style cross-dressing.
Confused? I wouldn’t be doing my job if you weren’t.
Let the Christmas panto mayhem begin.

Summary
What do we need right now? A fourth age soap opera! Men, Elves, Dwarves and of course Hobbits. Friendship, family, love, lust. Intrigue, skirmishes, espionage. Adventure on an epic canvas. And hobbits on a (modest) quest.

Summary
So, after almost a decade of writing fanfic, I've decided it's time to take the training wheels off and branch out into original fiction. I have an idea for a series of historical novels set during the reign of James VI of Scotland (and I of England).
But it turns out this original work malarky is not easy, and writing historical fiction is not easy. So I thought I'd unburden myself a bit. Looking for support and advice from people who've trodden this path!
Eventually, I will get book 1 of the Lindsay Chronicles launched.

Summary
My various and occasional submissions for International Fanworks Day. Pretty much all crack-fic, spanning a huge range of fandoms. Nothing is sacred - no trope, no source material, no ship. Deeply scary imagery and RPF which may scar you for life. Enter at your peril.

Summary
Crazy AU. Gondor is Georgette Heyer's Regency England, the Rohirrim are Aussies, there may be cricket, cucumber sandwiches and general silliness ahead. (And weirdly, possibly the most canon take on Eowyn and Faramir I've ever written, which for some odd reason fits right in...)

Summary
“Come in,” said a low, melodic tenor, and Éowyn’s heart leapt to her throat. She knew that voice. She’d heard that voice in her dreams for the last few nights.
*
What better way to bid farewell to her old life than a one night stand with a perfect stranger? Éowyn and Faramir meet in a Wellington pub right before her move to a new job, a new city, a new start. The last thing she expects is to see him again on her first day at work . . . when Pippin introduces her to her new boss.

Summary
A year is a long time for two young people in the throes of love—it’s important to have rules in place to prevent immoral behaviour. And if there’s one thing we know about Éowyn and Faramir, it’s that they’re great at following rules.

Summary
As Faramir takes up his duties and prepares for the King's return, those around him quietly care for him. A later chapter in this story will include that kiss on the wall—how could it not?
This story is a companion piece for “Of Claim and Councils”, though each story can be read separately.
[With gratitude to Raksha the Demon for reviewing the draft of Chapter 1, and for her wonderful Lord of the Rings fanfiction—which, after all these years, still makes me happy whenever I re-read it]
