The Way of the Wombat

Whilst there has been very little fic here, on my journal, over the past few months I have been busy writing and revising.

As the two stories involved have now both been posted in other places I thought it was time to put links here.

Some of my friends might remember, back about five years, that my first major piece of fic was in the Buffyverse and was called 'Ten Years After'. It looked at Dawn, ten years after the events in 'Chosen', the last episode of the original Buffy Series.

After having posted 'Returnverse' stories at 'Twisting the Hellmouth' I was entitled to post some non-cross-over stuff. And so I went back to Ten Years After and read it again; not bad, really.

I have revised it, tidied it up a bit to make it actually read better without changing the story, and have now finished posting it. So, if you would like to reacquaint yourself with 'Ten Years After', or read it for the first time, the whole story is posted HERE

It is rated as 18 at TtH, is 72,500 or so words long, in 22 chapters - with the following summary;

It is 2013, and Dawn is beginning to realise that she is not, as her sister insists, a 'totally normal young woman'. This story is, mainly, about 27 year old Dawn coming to terms with an unexpected future.

It is categorised there as 'romance, Spike/Dawn - but remember - this is grown-up Dawn, not teenaged Dawn!

..........................................

For those not interested in Buffyverse stories, or in rereading TYA, I have been writing properly at the same time - a nine chapter story in the 'Returnverse', set during Haldirin's childhood.

This time it was for plot_wout_porn - where there are some excellent fics being posted, by the way...

Uh - yes - so - the story is called In The Winter Garden, it features Tindómë, Rumil, Haldirin along with middle-aged Éowyn, Legolas and... well you'll have to read to find out the 'and'!

The entire story is only a touch over 20,000 words and chapter one is HERE. If I've remembered, each chapter should have a link to the next one. And there is really no porn (sorry if you are a porn addict...!), and so is rated a 13.
