MissMilton

20s creeping on 30, slowly working towards a bioengineering research post, and living quite close to one of the schools Tolkien attended. I first read The Lord of the Rings when I was eleven and it has been one of my favourite books ever since. I started writing fanfic in 2001 and I like to focus on areas left blank or murky in canon. I am most comfortable writing about Eowyn, Faramir, Denethor, and Arwen.
