I had an "OMG, how did I miss this?" moment just now, when I read a post over at [personal profile] edoraslass's journal. Apparently Lady Branwyn had a birthday a few days ago. I know I can be really slipshod about wishing people a happy day, but Branwhy is a good friend and I like to recognize the anniversary of when she entered the world. Several years ago, when we were living in the same city, we were part of a dinner club with other local Tolkien fans/fanfic writers. I also got to know Lord Branwyn and her adorable (if skittish!) kitten. Good times. I hope she is still living it up.

I usually recommend a story by the person on birthdays like this, and so I looked around her SOA page, where she posts most of her work. So many good things to choose from (and so many that I am behind on reading), but one jumped out immediately: The Long Race. Before his wedding to Eowyn, Faramir must prove himself. Not really humor or drama or any other typical genre, but with camaraderie and cheek to spare - it makes me grin just remembering it. Do yourself a favor and read it, if you haven't already.
