Hello all! And how are you?
(hides in corner to escape rotten tomatoes)
I know there is no excuse WHATSOEVER for going missing for so long.
Yes, I have been busy with school, tests, and the last of the coursework (almost finished with coursework, though. YAY!). But I also discovered the joys of a LiveJournal (Ooh! Tell me what you think of it! The link is on my bio), and I joined a wonderful LotR writers community on LJ called 'There and Back Again', and I found HASA! And I have been doing some beta-ing. It is so much fun! So I have been productive, at least.
Anyone waiting for updates on stories, I really, really do apologise sincerely for the long wait. But I promise I will get stuff posted in a couple of weeks, once it's the holidays. I have revision to do then, and I can assure you I will be doing plenty of writing then to take my mind off stuff. I am currently in the process of finding a beta for UWMA (anyone interested? Anyone at all?), and T&T is moving along in my head at least.
Meanwhile. I've been busy drabbling! It is so much fun! I have been doing this challenge thingy with a couple of lovely people, where we each contribute one or two words each, and then have to use all of those words in a drabble. FUN! It was my birthday last week, and I was determined to post something then, but schoolwork took over. So this week instead. I thought I would put up completed drabbles here and then perhaps add more later. If you have some time, do tell me what you think of them!
Righty ho. On to drabbles then. I thought I would list the words with them, since some of them are hard! And I'm not feeling particularly imaginative about titles, so…
But hope you like them!

1. Light, joyful, shadows, library
A light from the shadows shall spring...
It sits there, alone, but not forgotten.
The sword of Elendil, Narsil. Once it was wielded by the greatest of the Faithful. Today it is broken, an empty heirloom, resting in the library of Imladris.
In Imladris, where the blood of Numenor has been fostered, generation after generation, in the hope that one day there may be one who will reclaim the throne of Gondor.
That day is nearing...
Estel, he was called. His joyful childhood is left behind now. He is no longer a mere human. He is Aragorn, son of Arathorn.
So? Any comments? And can someone suggest a more imaginative title for this collection of drabbles, please?
