Service," kept out of KS to keep the rating PG13. I recommend treating
the two as one story.]

Ainae, is this okay with you?

Soledad

Hi, I'm Liz and I write under the pen-name Tanaqui. I think these
awards are wonderful idea - constructive criticism is the best award
any author can get! In a piece of blatant reciprocity ;-) (and because
I think both these stories very much deserve to be nominated), I am
nominating two of Marta's stories:

----

*Nominator's name: Liz (Tanaqui)
*Story Title: How Many Years?
*Story Author: Marta (aure_enteluva)
*Author's E-mail: MartaL0712@netscape.net (I believe Marta has given
permission for all her stories to be nominated)
*Story URL: http://www.storiesofarda.com/chapterlistview.asp?SID=1664

*Category Choices (see Categories File or FAQ for choices)
*1st: Men
2nd: Drama
3rd: LotR

*Rating: G

Reason for rating (violence, graphic, etc.): n/a

*Romance Partners (for Romances Only): n/a

*Summary (not a recommendation. Save that for the vote): The road to
the hallows above Minas Tirith is travelled only once a generation, on
the twentieth birthday of the current steward's oldest son. Denethor
leads Boromir down that scarce-walked path, and Denethor finally gives
Boromir an honest answer to a question he asked as a child.

----

*Nominator's name: Liz (Tanaqui)
*Story Title: Summer Nights
*Story Author: Marta (aure_enteluva)
*Author's E-mail: MartaL0712@netscape.net (I believe Marta has given
permission for all her stories to be nominated)
*Story URL: http://www.storiesofarda.com/chapterlistview.asp?SID=1320

*Category Choices (see Categories File or FAQ for choices)
*1st: Drama
2nd: Men
3rd: LotR

*Rating: R

Reason for rating (violence, graphic, etc.): discussion of adult
themes - prostitution, masturbation and unplanned pregnancy

*Romance Partners (for Romances Only): Faramir and OFC, Boromir and
OFC

*Summary (not a recommendation. Save that for the vote): The summer of
3000 was the hottest one Faramir ever remembered. When he found
himself lost in Dol Amroth and stopped at an inn to ask directions, he
was surprised to find the place was a haven from the heat. He decided
to stay for dinner and when the matron offered him a cool room to lie
down in while his meal was prepared, he gladly accepted, without
realising exactly what he was accepting.

Cheers, Liz

I think, yes, the two stories should be combined as one. Is there any
public website where the "missing" scenes are put in place in "Knight's
Service?" That would be the best thing for the nomination.

Hi Ainae

*waves* I'm the author of these two. At present, the stories are
separate, but I can post them as a combined story at SoA (under a
combined name) for the purposes of the nomination. I will post the
link here when it is done.

Cheers, Liz

Great. Thanks

Hi Ainae (and Soledad as well, I think?)

The combined story is now up. Here's a rehash of the nomination with
the new information:

*Story Author: Tanaqui
*Author's E-mail: tanaqui@btopenworld.com [verified]

*Summary (not a recommendation. Save that for the vote): For the
purposes of a Middle-earth Fanfiction Awards nomination, I have
combined my two existing stories, "Knight's Service" (rated PG) and
"Later" (a "missing scene" rated R) into one story. In which Faramir
gets wet, takes off all his clothes, and experiences the consequences.

hope that solves things and sorry for being a nuisance!

Cheers, Liz

Thank you, Liz! I've corrected the Romance list accordingly. :))
