Day 9

In your own space, post a rec for at least three fanworks that you have created. It can be your favorite fanworks that you've created, or fanworks you feel no one ever saw, or fanworks you say would define you as a creator. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

In December 2016 I asked for requests for gift ficlets (probably around 500 words each, I thought). The character and prompt mix was pretty varied, some of them rather stretched me, and most were around or over 2,000 words. I like the variety, I like that I just wrote a line for what each should be about and got on with it, no flailing and whining, and I like that I can go back and read them and (mainly) not cringe. There are a couple of spin off ficlets and a gap filler and a few with people I never imagined I'd write but enjoyed. (And a few never made it, but I still have the requests and they will appear eventually because I get mad at myself when I do that).

So -- Gifties: December 2016 . Here's the character mix -- yes, yes, a fair bit of Erestor but still less than half....

Osse and Gil-galad
Erestor/Glorfindel (in Nevrast)
Gil-galad and Cirdan
Erestor/Gil-galad, Gildor, Elrond, Elladan, Glorfindel.....
Erestor/Elrond
Erestor and Gil-galad
Feanor and Nerdanel
Beleg/Haldir
Celebrimbor, Galadriel, Annatar

I so admire writers who can do this. Nearly 20,000 words, too.

I am not normally that writer, lol. I'm the type who spends forever just trying to work out what to write. I'm still surprised by this :D

Thank you again for your lovely gift! <3 This is really a lovely collection.

with people I never imagined I'd write but enjoyed.
I hear you on this! One of the reasons for me to participate in exchanges, too.

Kenaz asked for Beleg/Haldir and I was a) blank and b) intimidated, but it made me think about a time and place that hadn't meant much to me before and I really liked writing it. Things like that are always good because you'd never inflict them on yourself otherwise, lol.

And writing the Sanctuary follow up for you was a joy - I love that universe.
