Prequel to the Fëanoriel Chronicles & Potential Standalone #1 in Numenor, #1 in Arnor* * * * * * *The line of Fëanor ended when Sauron, in his wrath, killed Lord Celebrimbor of Eregion and impaled his lifeless body on a spear to use as his battle standard in the Second Age. Except it didn't end. The elven loremasters and wise men of Middle Earth knew otherwise. For long years, records of the half elven descendants of Caranthir and Haleth were kept in Rivendell and Annûminas. They were an open secret, wearing the colors and symbols of Fëanor but seldom using his name to distance themselves from the bad luck of his House.And so as the Second Age ended and the Third Age moved on, the line continued, until the last remaining twin children of the line of Fëanor, Maedeth and Rínior, find themselves in positions of power in the crumbling Numenorean kingdom of Arthedain as it fights for its life against the shadow of Angmar.But even thousands of years after Mandos spoke the Doom of the Noldor, it still haunts the footsteps of the House of Fëanor. And with the inevitable fall of Arnor, perhaps the Doom will finally come to fulfillment: "The Dispossessed shall they be forever."* * * * * * *Rated: PG-16Based on: The Lord of the Rings Appendices and The Silmarillion More info inside…

"The Olympians have been called many things, but forgiving is not one of them."* - * - * [adventure, dark comedy, romance - book 1]Loyalty. What did it mean? As the Second Titan War raged across the United States, Half-Bloods began to pick sides. To some Half-Bloods, loyalty meant fighting for their godly parent. For some Half-Bloods it meant standing beside their friends. Sometimes those two definitions of loyalty clashed. They pulled to either side of the war. And sometimes, Half-Bloods picked the wrong side.When the war comes to a close, the traitor Luke Castellan repents of his actions long enough to kill Kronos and is given a funeral with honor. His final act granted him redemption.But what about the living? Who redeems them in the eyes of the gods?This is the story of three Half-Bloods who become the sacrificial lambs on the altar of repentance to the Olympians.

[ angst, thriller, found family, romance ]Imogen Clare Adler. She almost couldn't remember the last time she'd been able to use her given name. There'd been the six months in deep undercover in Chicago. Before that, four years on special assignment with the FBI. Every night, to try to ground herself in reality, Imogen repeated in her mind the names of the friends she'd left behind. Jay Halstead. Will Halstead. A handful of others from Organized Crime. The list went on. It felt better to count memories than sheep as she lay in dirty motel beds or in sealed white vans. But as the six months came to an end, Imogen found her own name strange to use. She'd been another person for so long. Returning to reality in Chicago could prove to be more challenging than she expected.

Putting together a large collaborative story isn't easy. But in my experience, it is totally worth it.Semi frequently (and more and more recently) I have people asking me to help with getting started writing. Along with that, I sincerely regretted not recording my progress on my latest fic series, especially the developmental stages. So I figured, why not try to kill two birds with one stone.AdamantiumDragonfly (Flora) and I (Silz / Julianne) are tackling a large Band of Brothers OC fanfic in the coming weeks and months. We are working together, with the main fic published under her account here on Wattpad, and my account on Ao3 and FFN. This book is about what we do to make it come true.I'm not an expert. Far from it. But I have been around the block for awhile, both as a writer and a member of collaborative stuff. So hopefully I can provide some insights, including how to develop more unusual plots, characters, etc, and maybe how to get your book out there and read. This will all be through the lense of Band of Brothers fanfiction, but should be pretty applicable to most fandoms.…
