Hey! So I noticed that like me you are also a big lotr fan, and recently I wrote and completed a fanfic about arwen and aragorn (a love story). If you have the time, would you perhaps give it a try?

@LadyElmerya Hi! For sure, I'll take a look at it! 
            
            If you are a fan of Legolas, feel free give my stories a go too (although they are a bit lengthy ) 
            
            Happy reading!

Dear readers, 
          
          You all inspire me so much that chapter 2 of "Lady of Rivendell" has basically written itself! Enjoy the extra chapter release! Sending you all lots of love ♡

Mmk ik this is kinda weird but i think it would be hilarious if Legolas thought there was smth going on between Celebriel and thorin

@https_imslow Hi! The beginning of the book is still a bit of a mess as I am trying to organize all my ideas into a consecutive storyline before beginning to publish chapters. Sorry for the wait :( I will hopefully have the first chapter up in a couple of weeks at most. Hang in there!

Thank you for your lovely note and the compliments to my writing.
          
          Actually, I wanted to correct you on one thing "riel" means "garlanded maiden." I checked my copy of The Silmarillien to be sure. Her high elven hame was Alatariel. Go to the Appendix and look up "kal".
          
          I want to take my story from her birth (written) to the end of the Third Age (or so). She does not go on the quest for the ring, but joins Aragorn when he  is met by Elladan andElrohir, and the Dunadain.
          
          Thank you again for liking my writing!

I was  going to be all uptight because you named your character  "Celebriel" which I used first, then I decided that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Besides, you probably didn't notice my story and you would have no way of knowing that my story is probably older than you are. (I'm guessing without revealing my age!)
          
          Anyway,  you continued working on your while in my ADHD  manner work on too many stories at once. And besides, your Celebriel was probably named after mine by her parents as my Celebriel is the sister of Celebrian.
          
          There was no good reason to write you this but I just felt compelled to. Congrats on all your reads, the most reads I have on a story is 88K

@martykate1 Hello friend!
            
            I'm so sorry about that, I assure you I had no idea that you had coined the name first.
            
            I do a lot (and I mean, a lot!) of etymological research when it comes to my characters' names (in this story and other drafts). I can't even count the number of times I  change one of my wip characters' names because I'm not satisfied with what it means or how it looks or even just how Tolkien-esque it sounds. 
            
            That being said, I chose Celebríel from a purely etymological standpoint, combining the Sindar "celeb" (silver) with "iel" (daughter) and following the structure of her mothers name, Celebrían.
            
            I hope you can understand where I'm coming from and that I absolutely respect that you technically put the name to paper first. 
            
            It's great that you're working on your story again! Happy writing! :)
