It would also be really nice to get a directory of Sam/Frodo fans. The Sam/Frodo category has a few fans listed. :/ It would be really cool if some one could go through the articles about Lord of the Rings fans and edit articles to add [[Category:Sam/Frodo_shippers]] for articles about Sam/Frodo shippers. :) Thanks!
Here's a Music Video that my sister and I did about our fav. slash pairings of LOTR. We are in need of comments and reviews on it! Has Frodo/ Sam and Merry/ Pippin.
New Artwork - "Spring" Dramatis Personae: Frodo Baggins, Samwise Gamgee, A butterfly and *numerous* daisies. Rating: PG - bit of SLASH; Medium: Watercolour pencils (Derwents), black ink, white ink on coloured paper.
New Artwork - Samwise the Stouthearted Dramatis Personae: Samwise Gamgee and Random Dead Orc. Rating: PG (some blood and dead orc). Medium: Watercolour pencils (Derwents), black ink, white ink on coloured paper.
New Artwork - Sam being tender to his master... Dramatis Personae: Sam and (an uncontious) Frodo No warning, no whatsoever. A bit sad this pic is, yes, but I trust all of you to have read the book - all will be okay... ;-)
Hey guys! Please come and join the icon challenge community, icon_challenge_! This week’s challenge is LOTR. You may submit up to three icons to be voted on later in the week.
So please join, create, submit and, if you’re lucky, win!
Herewith I invite all you Sam-and-Frodo-lovers to come and visit my art site, Solarfall's Realm. It has recently been redesigned (framed) and now contains all my original artwork on Sam's and Frodo's wonderful friendship, both Tolkien book-illustrations as well as slash-interpretations (you'll perhaps have to do a little searching to find it, but it's all there - at the end of my Book Illustrations page, there's a link - and an appropriate warning ;-). There's also an abundancy of (art) links as well as some essays for you to enjoy.
Moreover, I have also included the lovely artwork of two other great Tolkien-inspired illustrators in my Guest department: - Dagmar Jung, who - besides Frodo and Gollum and others - has done beautiful interpretations of Gimli and Legolas' friendship; - graewolf, who offers both wonderful LotR- as well as portrait art from various fandoms. She's one of the artists included in the currently available Vilya II-LotR-fanzine. You'll find their work by clicking on the "Guest Artist" links on the site navigation bar.
Hope you'll enjoy - and do leave a little message for the artists, if you want.

Samwise in Love Hello, all. :-) Long time writer, first-time fanfic writer here.
I have started a very long WIP called Samwise in Love. It is a story line I have been working on for a very long time, but have only recently realized that Sam and Frodo are the ideal pair of characters for me to share the story with the world. I've written the first three parts, available in a journal I created just for this fic, so if you like it you can friend it, and then you'll automatically get updates as they are available.
All I ask is that you comment if you are reading. Thanks!
Title:Samwise in Love Author: Brenginee Rating: PG-13 (this is my expectation for the bulk of the work. The very final chapters may go "R" or possibly further... depending on the feedback I'm receiving by then.) Summary: Samwise struggles with feelings he can't identify. Warnings: Every effort is being made to keep to book-and-movie canon. However, in order to keep this a unique tale, some exceptions are made. This tale assumes that Sam had passed the age of 20 by the time Frodo arrived in Hobbiton.

*spam* I hate hate hate hate doing this. Spamming.
But I just created a fic-only journal, transposition73. Features all my work (duh) before it gets on to my website or any of the LJ communities. It's Friends-Only, so let me know there if you want to be added.
Click and download: FOTRsoundbites.m4a. (Or: FOTRsoundbitesmono.wav.) When you rearrange pieces of dialogue from the extended 'Fellowship,' and add new background music, the mood becomes much naughtier.
Shall now go pretend I had nothing to do with this.
(Thought of doing TTT:EE also, but...well...don't TEMPT me, Frodo!)
Hobbit fanfic awards Latest reports coming in regarding ROTK are unanimous in stating that it makes everyone (including Elijah Wood, who should have been prepared) sob convulsively for at least the last hour, and for approximately two days afterward. Therefore it is especially good that we have the tongue-in-cheek Golden Mushroom Awards to cheer us up. These are hosted at shadowfax8's hobbit-based fanfic archive site, West of the Moon, and are open to gen and slash fiction alike, as long as they're hobbitcentric. Some of my favorite categories:
Best Drama Queen Best Abuse of a Controlled Substance — "Pippin, where DID you get these mushrooms!?" Most Inappropriate Use of Human/Elf/Dwarf Best 'Who gave YOU a weapon?' — some hobbits are just not meant to handle pointy things (Please nominate fics where one or more hobbits are injured or manage to injure each other with weaponry intended to be used on the enemy.) Best Rape of the Elvish Language Best Vacation from Canon Best Stress Test on Non-Bedroom Furniture — you're gonna WIPE that table after you're done, right? Best Chick!Frodo — does Frodo buy his lavender water from Crabtree & Evelyn? The Tie-Me-Up Tie-Me-Down Award — excellence in light hobbit bondage
(And a few others I daren't copy and paste here. Let's just say the line "Coming, sir!" is now making me grin.)
Go there and nominate your favorite stories, or just enjoy the categories like I'm doing.
