Fanwork Notes

For the Beginners' prompts of the Matryoshka Challenge.

Hopefully, this is too cracky to need warnings, except a heads-up that this Maeglin is more or less the kind of storybook villain he tends to be in  the early version in the Fall of Gondolin (with canonical one-sided Maeglin/Idril).

Oh dear. (And of course he would burrow into your brain when you were trying to fall asleep! Inspiration, and the lack of it, is such a funny thing!)

Yes, he did burrow in the most mole-like fashion! Glad you were amused!

There certainly is something recalcitrant about inspiration. Sometimes it only comes when you have already concluded it won't, and often it takes surprising swerves and twists.

Oh no, poor Maeglin! This is great fun, and I very much sympathise with him - I can't seem to get started with Matryoshka challenges either! I do hope he'll try next month's challenge instead - perhaps with art rather than writing? :) 

Oh, this was hilarious! And unexpected - I’m glad that the news of the SWG monthly challenges have reached Gondolin. But perhaps Maeglin should try drawing next, sounds like he has some skill in that. I loved the crackfic and meta aspects.
