Welcome to the digital home-from-home of
FibroJedi (
Catch Me on Twitter). Here I will occasionally blog about life with
Fibromyalgia.
However the bulk of my posts centre around gaming on The Lord of the Rings Online (LOTRO), especially festival/event guides.
I also write lore-faithful LOTRO FanFiction.

I am thirty-something, fighting many
symptoms of Fibromyalgia and I live in Scotland. I have a wife, a daughter and a cat. I also drink far too much
coffee.
Due to chronic pain, I can no longer hold down a ‘normal job’, so am looking to support my family through a little through this blog.
Find out more about me in You Behind the Illness.
I chose the name
FibroJedi as ‘Fibro’ is the shortened version of ‘Fibromyalgia’ (
What is Fibromyalgia?) and I have more in common with the Jedi philosophy than the Sith Code.
Though as you’ll see from this site, I’m not averse to role-playing and used to write SWTOR FanFiction about the Sith. I enjoy both sides of the Force, in reality!
The character I’ve written about for the longest time is a Shadow Jedi, Cor-Jhan. So still Jedi, kinda.

- This Blog: of course this site is a project too! LOTRO guides, Fibromyalgia stuff and LOTRO FanFiction.
- Drawing as Rest: This is a hobby and not something I’m ever looking to turn into income. You can see completed pieces on my DeviantArt profile. WIP drawings are periodically shared on Ko-Fi.
Find Me In-Game
If you want to find me in-game, then that’s usually okay. Sometimes I just need to shut the world out though, so please be understanding. Here are character names you can message or add to friends lists!
Evernight Ayrthir, Caethir, Nyahwyn
Crickhollow
Lothver, Rubybella
Darth Malgus
2021: For health and time reasons I’m currently on a break from SWTOR, but I will return at some point. With other commitments and with my health in a generally awful state right now, I can’t play. But I’m not gone forever.
May The Spoons Be With You.
