First up
Here is the new one:
At Teitho, the challenge for October is Weird Tales: It’s supposed to be as general as possible to give you the opportunity to write anything fitting the spirit of Halloween: haunted houses, ghosts, vampires, werewolves, magic. Middle Earth has its fair share of dark corners. Halloween is the perfect time [...]

Sorry this is a bit late this month - I’ve been away.
Here’s the new challenge over at Teitho:
At Teitho, the challenge for June is Strange Encounter. What draws us to the world Tolkien created is not only the characters. To a large extent, it is also the fact that Middle Earth is a place of [...]

At Teitho, the challenge for May is Crime and Punishment: You could take this challenge as an opportunity to explore how “crime and punishment” would have looked in Middle Earth. Or you could approach this challenge on a more personal level: How would Aragorn be punished by his wife if he forgot their anniversary? The [...]

At Teitho, the challenge for April is “When I Was Your Age…!” Haven’t we all heard that sentence in our youth, mostly spoken in a long-suffering voice by an adult? It would be followed by the story of a misspent youth or the recounting of a marvelous adventure or a wise decision we would never [...]

I’ve been a bit slack on the fanfiction updates front, aside from being that time of year and being flat out at work it’s been way too hot to even think about spending too much time in front of the computer - we’ve had days of over 40C heat (with no real break to it [...]

Well it’s approaching that time of year again: Halloween; at least for some people, in Australia we don’t celebrate it, but that doesn’t stop me from wanting to read about it. I love a good horror story, of course just because it’s Halloween doesn’t mean the fanfiction has to be scary, over the years I’ve [...]

Here’s the latest theme for the monthly challenge held at Teitho:
At Teitho, the challenge for October is Healing. It is quite easy to break something or to hurt someone: a moment of inattention or a few ill-chosen words can be enough to shatter something precious. It is much harder to heal what was broken. Sometimes [...]
