Happy New Year in Blogland!
No new writing finished yet, I am afraid. I have been very busy so far this week with my family - but live in hope that I will have two days left to answer e-mails and get on with the stories.
I will keep this short, but I just wanted to thank those whose encouragement, support, enthusiasm and grammar corrections have been invaluable to me this past year. So - in alphabetical order, 'Thank you' to Bellemaine, Ellie, Ellin, Eru_Melin, Fëanor, Magoleth,and those others who have PMed and e-mailed me. :)
Special thanks to my husband for putting up with me writing at odd hours.
I have been so impressed with the art work done by Eru_Melin and Sulenir (see Council of Elrond - Member's Art) that I picked up a pencil and drew Mark. And yes - that *is* an Elven circlet he is wearing. Bellemaine should recognise it! ;)
I hope to have more to post by the end of the week. :)

I'm always quite impressed with your drawings. If I drew my wife, she'd be a glorified stick figure and would probably be quite embarrassed if I posted it on my blog. Mark, on the other hand, is probably quite pleased with how his portrait turned out!
I agree! This sketch is simply wonderful!! I know now why your sister thought Jenny Dolfen's Fëanor was a drawing of your husband! :) :) :)
Seriously, you are so good at this. Whenever you draw something else, please post it pronto!

Mark might be quite pleased with this rendering of him - but he doesn't know I have posted it on my blog! :)
Can I point out that he normally doesn't wear an elven circlet! It was just amusing to me, because he had been crawling through the loft doing 'something', and had a dirty t-shirt, jeans with holes in - and an elven circlet on his head! I just had to capture that! ;)
The ciclet is a gift from a good friend, and he wears it when we go to fancy dress / medieval type events.
I haven't got the front of his hair quite right though, even though it was a mess at the time!
But fortunately for me, he is tolerant of my artistic endeavors!
Eru_Melin - I thought of you when I put that lable on the entry! ;)
I may have a free day tomorrow? I am really hoping I don't get disturbed - I have so much I want to do - like read your paper, Feanor! :)
hy,you have a great blog and I'll love it....
I'm new and I have just accidentally seen your blog but I know I will of now on read it.... I hope you like mine too!
Hello, lady arlenne :)
Please feel free to leave comments as you want.
I have only been 'blogging' since April - but it can be good fun. I use it mostly to help me with writing stories and keeping in touch with friends. I don't post every day, though.
I am having a madly busy day at the moment, but I will take a look at your blog later.
