The results from the MEFAs came in a couple of days ago, and I'm the lucky recipient of some gorgeous shinies. What are the MEFAs? I hear you cry. They are the Middle-earth Fanfiction Awards. What's nice about the MEFAs is that scoring is done by reviewing: the longer the reviews, the more points for the story. It is a big reading and reviewing annual festival.
There are numerous heroic people involved in running it, but particular thanks must go to:
telperion1, who is the main organiser;
aranel_took, who designed a new website from scratch for the awards this year; and the wonderful banner makers who made and customised my shinies:
ellynn_ithilwen,
esteliel, and particularly
mrowe, from whom I demanded a shopping list of shinies as long as my arm! Not forgetting the various adminny people who quietly do good work behind the scenes - my thanks to them too.
And I'm hugely grateful to everyone who took time to read and comment on my stories over the past few months: those reviews coming in kept me going throughout an exhausting few months towards the end of last year (some occasional grim moments).
Now, shinies!

Ariel: Finduilas is made of air. A tiny ghost story.

By Sad Waters We Sat Down and Wept: “And the slaves of Mordor he released and gave to them all the lands about Lake Núrnen to be their own.” The King of Gondor receives an ambassador.

Withered Tree: A penny for the Old Guy... An AU set in Minas Tirith.

Foundered Land: It's not the end of the world. Yet. Faramir and Gandalf in the library of Minas Tirith.

Garden of Gondor: A series of drabbles concerning the Lord and Lady of Emyn Arnen and their family, over the years.

Caretaking: What aid can come to this heavy house?

Bequests: Due compensation. Drabbles from Ithilien.

The Use of Memory: "Memory is not what the heart desires..." Faramir and Arwen.
And I mustn't forget this beautiful banner, awarded to several of my stories, for placing in the top third of reviewed fic this year. Thank you to
aranel_took for this one:
