Tolkien Hey Everyone!

Suilaid,
Hi guys, I'm new to this site, and it looks like it's going to be great! I'm still figuring everything out, but this site is awesome! I've read the trilogy, and own it, as well as The Hobbit, The Silmarillion, The Book of Lost Tales Volumes 1 and 2, Unfinished Tales, and the Illustrated Encyclopaedia. I have only read, to my great shame, the trilogy and The Hobbit. I'm rereading the trilogy, as I havent read it since a couple years before the movies came out, and then I will proceed to read the rest of the books that I have. I know a little Sindarin. I also have a Nenya replica, and my favorite character is Galadriel. I love to sing, and I plan to become a professional opera singer. I also love to read (duh) and write. I live in the southeastern US. I am a member on Councilofelrond.com and Lotrplaza.com.
Well, that's me in a nutshell (didn't mean to ramble). I think I'm going to love this site!
Navaer as si,

Saelil

Hello Parmawen!

Aye! I understand how you feel. All my middle years (and I suppose to some extent my high school years seeing as I 've only been in high school for 1 and a half years what do I know? eh?) I took clarenet, piano and voice lessons (music is my passion!) and was sorta kicked around coz of it. And plus the LOTR and Harry Potter fan image didn't help. I guess I rebeled against being a geek and flunked and skivved school... (DON'T GET ANY IDEAS!)

Oh and sorry if you think this was kinda rude it's because I am a rude person and I don't know when to shut up...
Tactless is the word... i think ?!

Cheers and welcome to all!

-Elonve the extreamly happy !
Peace to Mr. Wright! *smiles innocently*

Welcome to ye, Lady of the Wood! Don't feel bad about not having read all those books; I've got HoME 4 through 6 sitting around as of yet unread... I'll get to 'em someday. A rainy day, perchance.

Enjoy your death!

Not rude at all! It's always nice to know you're not alone. I guess that's the great thing about the internet right? you can always meet people with similar interests.

And now that I'm a member, I can welcome Lady of the Wood (nice name!)...Galadriel is an awesome character! and don't sweat about not reading those other books...i'm still debating when to read them!

New 2!!!

Greetings fellow barrelriders!

I have only just discovered this forum, stumbeling across some keywords ....

I have read Tolkiens books time and again and have always been drawing stuff. Lately I have been taking a closer look at "The Hobbit", disecting it into really valuable information about architecture and settings. I noticed that many illustrations I found were far from my imagination and often too weird to fit.

So I hope this place will be a nice area to brainstorm and exchange concepts and thoughts.

My nick "Thorgis" is chosen after a viking tyrant who occupied Dublin. But I am not all that evil. It´s just after having to play a viking on a dutch LARP called Moonblade I chose his name and grew somehow attatched to the chap!
If you want to see how dangerous I really am - just have a look at my site!
