Story ID: 56 · "A Secret Gate" by Elanor · (Incomplete: Epic)
Rating: PG  While in execution this story would appear to be a G, the
subject is, in the long run, Death. Further, it is unfinished, and I
don't yet know what ground may be turned as I continue, so it may not be
fair to the reader to blithely assure them of clear sailing in this
regard. Tolkien does not include a lot of PG criteria himself, but in
theme and execution I think LOTR itself is PG.
First Choice Category  Genres: Drama (includes Angst)

Story Summary: Late in the 25th century, in the year 2495 A.D., a human
cyborg comes to terms with her differences and must face the fact that
she is not like her own kind. Bred as a hybridized killing machine, cold
and emotionless, she has known nothing else but to take orders, seek out
and destroy; seeing all through the eyes of logical determinations and
calculated efficiency. For decades she has killed and obliterated with
no thought or emotion and, up until recently, had no conscience, or
knowledge of what it meant to possess one. After centuries of warfare
and, having survived a violent existence for which she was purposefully
created, she now finds herself entering an alien and emotion-filled
world, something she is not equipped to deal with. Unbeknownst to her,
the battle to embrace her humanity has begun...but, by whose hand shall
she face down her demons? Eternal enemies, Good and Evil ply mercilessly
for her cyborg soul.

some language.
First Choice Category  Times: Multi-Age
Story's URL: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2743383/1/
Story Summary: Deeply moved by his courage and determination, a
mysterious entity transports Boromir to modern-day North Carolina after
his fall at Amon Hen. After he heals, he finds new purpose in this
strange new world providing aid, support, and protection to two young

-----------------------------------------------------------------
Story ID: 674 · "Avoidance" by stefaniab · (Incomplete: Novel)
Rating: PG-13  Some of the chapters have "Middle Earth cussing," which
gets a little creative. The story does discuss sexual matters, such as
lust, losing one's virginity, prostitution, and the presence of
homosexuals in the military. There are no explicit sex scenes and no
explicit discussions about sex. As expected of a resident of Stories of
Arda, "Avoidance" contains no slash.
First Choice Category  Genres: Romance
Story's URL: http://www.storiesofarda.com/chapterlistview.asp?SID=3626
Story Summary: Faramir and Eowyn re-examine how they fell in love but
somehow avoided telling each other the details. Life in Minas Tirith is
precarious at best, as Gondor's future hangs in the balance. "Avoidance"
is Movieverse, with respect for book canon and occasional humor in the
telling.
-----------------------------------------------------------------

Perhaps this is a dumb question but how can you tell what stories are
in the same category? Will there be a list posted that has the
stories shown in their categories?

We are in the process of categorizing right now (breakinh down those
big lists that Marta posted into the actual subcategories) and once
the categorizers confirm the categories, you will be able to see them
in the database. :-)

Thanks! I was getting confused. :)

Feanor is pissed. Hates his half brothers, hates his step mom, is pissed at his daddy. He learns to make gems, impossibly perfect gems, and he's just too bitchen at it. But its kinda creepy and narrow minded too. ~ Silbonics by Ghetto & Al (Al did all the LOL)~

Hi Alassante,

Five intrepid volunteers (myself included) have just begun sorting the
nominations into categories and subcategories. Assuming all goes
according to plan, we'll be posting the check ballots on the second week
of July. Those are listings a lot like this, but sorted into categories.

If you like, I can send you a text file with these listings sorted by
their first choice categories. But some of that might change as we move
stories around where some of the categories didn't have enough nominated.

Silly me! Should have checked that someone hadn't already answered this
question. ;-)

Thats okay Marta. Thanks for the offer though. :) I can wait til July - I just saw all those emails yesterday and didn't know if I needed to figure things out from that or if it would be clearer in time. Seems like you guys have a future plan that will make more sense to me. I need a MEFA for Dummies guide. ;)
