I've put in an offer of making a painting for

sunflower_auction , which is a fanworks auction raising money for various Ukraine charities. I hope it is a great success.

Now trying to decide whether to offer writing as well. I did get some nice bids in Fandom Trumps Hate, and am now working on my first story for that. They wanted a Silmarillion hurt/comfort story involving Maedhros, Maglor, Elrond and Elros, and I came up with a few ideas for that: we have discussed, and gone for First Age War of Wrath, which allows all four to be present and is an interesting setting to explore that doesn't have quite so many stories already written for it.

I am still waiting to hear exactly what my second chance bidder would like me to write. He got in touch, and said he would get back to me, but so far no word has come. If it's something with a lot of scope, I might not want to commit to another written-to-prompt story this year since I seem to have reverted to Write Very Slowly Mode (alas!).

Actually, maybe the thing to do is ask him about that. It's been a month, a gentle chasing-up email is probably due.

I've also offered to pinch-hit for
