“We’re Sorry, Celebrimbor” Month: Final post!

[huinare]

June is now over, although since most months have 31 days, I’m happy to consider July 1st as Honorary June. ;)

Trivia:

Celebrimbor appears in the game Shadow of Mordor as a wraith who nags aides an original character in getting revenge on Sauron. Provided the player defeats Sauron, I suppose this is also Good News for Celebrimbor.

Updates*:

Since the last update, bunn has done more art-with-memoir-type-snippet, whilst fic has come from lignota, hhimring, talullahred, starbrow (Amy Fortuna), brookeoflorien, and huinare. Some of these fics may be friendslocked.

[*If I neglected to list your done-after-mid-June work above and you would like to be included, PLEASE message me and accept my apologies, as I can assure you it’s a simple brainfart.]

Final stuff:

- If you didn’t have time to complete your work during June, late entries are always welcome. Just post it wherever you usually do, and if you want to drop me a line about it, I’d love that. :)

- How many of you have done/are planning to put your work on AO3? This was a small challenge; if someone would like a collection that could possibly be done, but I’m not sure if there are going to be more than a couple stories for this on AO3.

Cheers:

Thanks to June’s writers/readers/artists! I hope those who participated in the challenge had fun. Maybe now, having taken a break from heinous cruelty, we can sleep at night, for a little while, at least.  ;)

Thank you very much for organizing this! I'm sure Celebrimbor appreciates it.

I do have one more project in progress, of a less serious kind, but it may take some time to produce the photographic evidence. :)

Ah yes, done now and here. (F-locked, sorry -- it didn't come out pretty-looking enough for me to show the entire internet. But it amuses me.)

And thank you for participating!

Re: project below, I'm glad somebody did take that angle! =D

Thanks for coming up with this, it was fun!

I particularly liked that it was set up in a way that was equally open to response in any format, not just writing fic. I have looked at some of the prompts and challenges in various Tolkien communities recently, but they are very writing-focussed, and at the moment I'm in an art-first kind of mood. :-D

I'm glad the not-necessarily-writing format worked out for you (although the writing accompanying your art was also enjoyable), and it was wonderful to have some art in the challenge as well!

Thank you very much for organizing this, Huin!
My first fic, the complete, if short one, is already x-posted on AO3 (with a French translation(!), so Celebrimbror has been apologized to in more than one language as well as in multiple media). I'd be happy to add it to a collection if you decide to make one.

And thanks for writing something for this!

I really liked the small crop of stories that resulted from it.

[...] so Celebrimbror has been apologized to in more than one language as well as in multiple media)

This is excellent!
If I do make a collection, I'll mention it on LJ.
