The Shortest Day is the Longest Night. The Year’s Nadir Approaches. Steady in step. The Unseelie Court’s doors open wide to Fall’s Aplenty. It is comforting to remember that though the fallow cold and sterile ice peer down from their cyros thrones. That which is loosened for but for a brief time. From the Abyssal Depths that gives up her brood. To the very foundations of the world stewed by the nameless hungering things. No night may yet last forever. Illimitable Dominion over all though the Red Death may hold. Tis but fragile stewardship it remains. Not even Jadis herself could hold Winter but never Christmas. The Ages of Ice are but brief idle sleep. Ponder then that evergreen promise of spring. Inevitable bequeathing the darkness reluctantly compelled. No matter how iron clad the toothsome and fierce the dark may grow. The things that uprose unhindered within their gruesome nadir. Shudder at light’s glow! Flee at first kiss of day! Toothless then they shrouded by death’s decay. Terrifying then must be inexorable, insistent renewal aquiet in its cradle bed. Cruel yet marching till tender spring bears again the crown. What fear then must fester abreast in that of darkness and stillness that winter doeth inspire? For what fierce dominion can they claim? That will not in time be taken by light and spring! Life my dear, Always finds a way. Always. What winter’s bark whine with agonied bite the kiss of spring long a fated. For even in Winter’s Apex does not Spring await insistent yet patient at the gates? Force fully marshalled? For what honor? What glory lay in preening bargains yet made. Be worth the enmity the coming of tomorrow’s day? What use could be worth the barbed trap the fine print surely dwells? Reject the ill gotten gain In favor of the labor of honest day. For yesteryears guest is tomorrow's brow crowned alighted! Eat. Drink. Be Merry! For Faust benighted a prince pauper. The Snowmen pall against the door allergic to the taste of hearth kindled warmth. The Sugar Plum Fairy with faerie treats a many. The game of hospitality is afoot! Enchanted! Does not Krampus scamper at yule father’s behest? Short Will Be His Prime. Great will be his Abeyance. The rules are thus in art regal procession! Tags at the top of the story Holiday theme Original Fiction 50k word limitation!

From BronxWench on November 01, 2025 Interregnum I will admit, I tend to find malls creepy even when they're not abandoned, or derelict. BUT, if I were to have to wander around an abandoned, derelict, entirely creepy mall, I would be much happier in the company of a Belgian Malinois. Rex is a Very Good Boy! Nice and creepy! Thank you! Hellhounds are quite loyal and she raised it from a pup. I like to call this particular setting the False World,

At the moment, I’m mostly using AI for stories that I’m almost certainly not going to write. I have like 50 story ideas that I came up with before AI was a thing that I’m slowly working my way through using my brain. What I’m using it for is fun stuff. For example, there’s a couple of soap opera characters that I’d love to be an actual couple but it’s unlikely to actually be a thing. AFF actually has a couple stories from that soap opera on the site but not with any of the characters that I’m thinking of. So AI helps me have fun with the idea. There’s almost no chance I will ever write them myself or put it out there into the world. That way the idea isn’t nagging me to write it instead of what I’m currently writing.

I’m fairly certain that I read at least parts of it if not the whole thing. But yes, that’s probably true about the terms of service for most people.

Thanks. I don’t write as much as I did long ago, but still am deep in the Middle-earth fanfiction and collaborative writing. I’ll see about sharing some of my old stories here.

Welcome! As a fellow Tolkien fan, I’d love to see you post stories in that fandom. While I don’t write nearly as much as I’d like to these days, I’m hoping to get back to it myself.

More than a few times my wife and my collaborative fanfic writing set within the lines of Tolkien’s Middle-earth canon has gone off the rails. Our ‘Kin-strife’ story and out ‘Last Princess of Cardolan’ story really stretched the limits of what ne could do within the written canon framework. We’re currently working on another one called ‘The Tale of Valacar and Vidumavi’ which is a prequel to ‘Kin Strife’.

I can’t count them all. I first started writing Tolkien’s Middle-earth collaborative roleplay and fanfiction stories on the One Ring (.com) forum back in 1999. Many fell into ruin with various website crashes and moderator deletions for being ‘too adult’. Fair enough, so I started my own forum on EZBoard in 2022, and had a lot oif saved stories posted there. Unfortunately EZBoard was sabotaged by a disgruntled employee on May 31st 2005 and wiped clean. The then mirrored the wiped site to the back-up. Fortunately, an old back-up was found after it was discivered that proper back-up hadn’t been done for nine months. There was a difference between ‘backing up’ and ‘mirroring’. Anyway, many stories were recovered with the last part lost. These days, I have an external harddrive I store them on, along with my One Drive and iCloud, and I had a lot of them saved under the RP Repository roof in a group I develope. Sadly, not being in control of it, it got deleted when I handed it off to someone else when I was asked to move on. Still, I have many from over 20 years ago, but equally as many have been lost ofer the time when various forum sites ceased to exist.

Remembering Many Paths To Tread and Open Scrolls Middle-earth fanfiction sites. The former was working fine until the domain expired and it went away forever, and the latter wasn’t tech-maintained and fell into ruin. The domain is still active and I get the default splash page, but the link to the Hall of Scrolls won’t open.

Hello! Apparently I registered here back in 2018 and made one post. Computer changes had me lose the link, and now that I again got a new computer (Thanks Microsoft for ending Windows 10 support) I decided to cleanout my email clutter. Under an ‘Accounts’ folder, I found my activation email for here, so decided to visit. I updated my account and here I am! I do write some fan fiction; mainly in Tolkien’s Middle-earth (my namesake is an OC I created embedded in the Lord of the Rings story). I have recently written some adult modern day drama with several OCs I created, and with some characters others had given to me to use. I could edit and share some of them here if that is acceptable. Anyway, like so many other forums, it looks like activity has waned from the beginning of this decade. The last intro post was in 2023. Hope to be around more since I now saved a bookmark.

It certainly wasn’t stolen, and January 6th 2021 was an insurrection. Sadly, the insurrectionists ‘won’ in 2024.

Oh, trust me, I imagine the number of people who have actually read the Terms of Service are a distinct minority compared to those who are shocked, shocked, I tell you, to find out we have rules. They won’t be any more likely to observe site restrictions on AI, and yes, that is a deeply cynical point of view.

Happy Halloween Everybody!

I suspect that you’re probably right about a lot of your view of it. However, I think it makes sense to have this generally laid out on the site somewhere. That way people can’t claim that they didn’t know.

Ok, I actually made some progress on The Lake House today before having to leave for work. Let’s see how far I get in a week.

IMHO, for this site (and similarly for AO3), what most people are against is the AI slop. (Feed a prompt to Chat GPT, get a “novel” from it. TBH, quite sophisticated and impressed it’s gotten as well as it has; basically a million typewriter monkeys that have some pattern recognition grasp at what the humans are seeking.) I don’t think folks would be against you using something like grammarly, or similar spell/grammar checker with some AI backing to it. I don’t think they’d be really against you using an AI created image as a writing prompt/aid to help visualize the scene you’re about to write/describe. I don’t think that’s at a level of needing disclosure. But then we get closer to the gray line with something like an AI character profile, backstory, or it helping you finish/write a scene. Right now, if AI is forming a substantial chunk of the writing process, disclosure is likely the best policy, and let the reader decide if they want to continue or not. (Just remember, you’re still on the hook for whatever you post.)

Well, one of the big tells I have when my connection is wonky, is playing anything on Battlenet or Steam. While I may be able to login, games won’t launch properly.
