I wrote some short fics based on excellent art prompts for the Scribbles & Drabbles challenge, and they all posted on the day I moved.
First, 1,225 words on Galadriel becoming a warrior following Finrod's death. "She was not a natural at this."

Second Scribbles & Drabbles fic, 1,336 words prompted by calligraphy of lines from "The Wanderer." Spotlighting Éowyn, Héra, and an original Rohirric poet as they each find themselves at what seems like the end. Poetry providing solace and connection.
