Howdy! I am Lindelas, Lin, or Jacquelindelas. Someday I will have a stetson, a horse, and pointed ears. Trust me.
I discovered fanfiction through a friend at camp who told me about the Mellon Chronicles and demanded that I read them. I made myself VERY unpopular with my family for the week or so that it took me to breeze through the stories, face glued to the screen, eyes wide with horror and apprehension as the orcs, Ringwraiths, evil uncles, and various natural disasters whumped on my favorite Elf and ranger. It wasn't too long afterward that I found Silver-blue and began making wonderful friends and memories in that place.
I began writing my own Lord of the Rings fanfiction right away, but that first story fell by wayside and will never be seen by any eyes but mine. A few years later I tried my hand again within the fandom of National Treasure and succeeded in completing my first full story, complete with much Riley whumping and hideous plot holes. Other NT stories followed, and then I moved into other fandoms, (Bonanza in particular) slowly improving, as must happen with practice.
I still have a long way to go, and much to learn about story craft, but as long as there are stories to be told of my favorite characters, fanfiction is wonderful practice and good fun. So please, enjoy my humble efforts, and tell me what you think!
