Biography:   Hello and greetings! I am a fashion and costume design student. I am recently married and owned by 4 kittens. I was first introduced to Tolkien as a child by viewing "The Hobbit" animated movie. The book was later read to me. Gandalf was my first favorite character, but that list of characters was soon expanded once I was able to explore the rest of the books on my own. I am a big fan of the Realms of Men. Most of my stories revolve around them, especially in the 4th Age and 2nd Age. I have been told by others that I am obsessed with Númenóreans. Really, I am. I won't deny it. :-) I write a variety of stories, although I do enjoy humor, fluff, angst, and romance the most. I like to play around with different genres. When I'm not writing, I am often coming up with various costume and fashion design ideas. Some of my ideas actually do come from my stories, or a design might inspire an entire story. I would love to work in the film and stage industries someday, and my absolute dream job is to be the costume designer if they ever made Akallabeth a movie or film series.

bullet Forsaken Knowledge by Rhapsody Last Updated: 5/22/2009
In order to finish one of his greatest achievements, Celebrimbor applies a skill he considered forgotten. This was written as a belated birthday present for Pandemonium who challenged her friends into writing a story in the distinctive style of another well-known author. My choice is Marion Zimmer Bradley.
Beta and thanks to Wenont for tweaking it into the tiniest details! I added the long overdue author notes.
