nelyo_russandol: SWG (SWG)
[personal profile] nelyo_russandol
Our July 2018 newsletter has been posted!

This edition brings you the latest SWG news, including a new essay by Himring published in our Reference Library, a trip back in time to our "Seven in '07" compilation, and the usual reminder about our current challenge, which this month is "Analysing Arda". Last but not least, we extend a cordial welcome to a new member of our community.

This month Oshun presents the second part of her biography of Galadriel. Continuing from Part 1's analysis of Galadriel's role in the early legendarium, this month's biography considers her role in the Second and Third Ages, where her foresight and penchant for leadership often allowed her to operate in highly significant ways in bringing the Ring Quest to fruition.

Finished your latest read and looking for something new? Look no further! Our newsletter lists all the stories, essays, and poems added or updated on our SWG archive during the past month of June. To keep up to date with what is happening within the wider fandom world, the Around the World and Web section brings you a selection of recent articles of interest, fandom events, and calls for papers.

As always, this newsletter would not be possible without the contribution of several volunteers. Many thanks to this month's contributors--Oshun, Elleth, Angelica, and Dawn!

Beta: Many, many thanks to Julie and thanks to Ghettoelleth for the help with Quenya
Warnings: none
Rating: PG
Setting: Valinor, 4th Age
Characters: Finarfin, Eärwen, Galadriel
Summary: Finarfin awaits his daughter’s return home from Middle-earth.
Disclaimer: I do not own the characters or settings. They all belong to Tolkien.


Notes: I thought I had already posted this here, but I hadn't, so I managed to have something for the month appreciating my favorite elf.

My daughter has her daddy wrapped around her little finger. After watching her and my husband play together one evening, it got me thinking about Finarfin and Galadriel and what their relationship might have been like. I hope I posted this correctly (I always seem to mess up the first go round posting here). Please let me know what you think of this little fic.

I can't think of much to say about Galadriel, except that the more Tolkien wrote about her, the more shiny and perfect he made her (see 'Unfinished Tales').

Title: True Silver

Chapter: not applicable (single drabble)

Author: Marta (melayton@gmail.com)

Rating: G

Warnings: heterosexual relationship (Celeborn/Galadriel) but not sexual

Genre: Romance

Summary: Celeborn's first impressions of Galadriel in Doriath

Author's Introduction: Hey guys. I do not usually write fic set exclusively in the times of the Silmarillion, though that backhistory often plays a part in my stories. So setting a whole story, even a drabble, in the First Age is new territory to me. I'm mainly interested in canonical stories. Is there anything here that contradicts what Tolkien wrote? Also, I'm interested in technical things. How would you improve this piece? (Keep in mind that it's exactly 100 words for a reason.)

Chapter 24 continuedChapter 24 continued )

Author's Notes:

This was a long and complicated chapter, but I chose it to submit because I think it sums up a lot of what has gone on before, for those who do not wish to read the whole story, and because it is the first "live" appearance of Feanor, although he and Mandos have had conversations in earlier chapters, in order to set up his eventual "appearance".

I was worried that perhaps there was not enough of Feanor himself in this chapter, though. For instance, I do not have him responding at all to Galadriel, which, in light of his previous obsession with her (which is dealt with in more detail in my other story about him: SSP). I don't know if I should do something with that.

I am also not sure if his character shows enough of the insanity that is beginning to rise up in him. It does increase more in the next chapter that deals with him primarily (Ch. 27), and then ultimately in Ch. 30: Soul Sacrifice, which contains the climax of the story. Taken out of context this way, it is difficult to put into perspective.

I am sorry that the chapter is so long, but I selected this one because it does bring together a lot of the other "sub-plots".
