Hey,

Just joined this evening while procrastinating on real work. l am a member of assorted archives, but I liked a lot of the stories here, so I joined up.

I'm a psychology major and politics minor, and when not studying, I ride horses and play Irish harp and whistle. I write Tolkien fan fiction when I can and when I have a muse, which is rather flakey and comes and goes. I haven't written anything for a while, though I have two Silmarillion fics I am in the on and off process of editing and figuring out whether they need another bout with beta or if I should put them up on some website somewhere. So, if anyone wants to look at them, I'd be happy Smile And because I love punishment, I am pondering writing an epic about the crossing of Helcaraxe. After all, I finally finished my last LOTR epic.

Lastly, here is the obligatory stupid question:

How do I post a story on this website?

Hi there, and welcome to OSA. Very Happy On the home page, click on the ring at the top, and whatever catagory your story is, click 'add story', and then either upload the file or paste it in the box they have provided. If this doesn't help, you can always read the guidelines. Smile



Take care,

- DEC

Welcome to the Fun House. As a fellow Silgeek, I'm looking forward to reading your stuff. Leggy and The Crew get much more attention, so good Silfics are few and far between.

Welcome to the fun world of OSA!!!! Ditto Inglor, am becoming a real Sil Fic Fan. Looking forward to seeing some of your work. And this is the best place on the Net if you need some advice or help with writing, also a great place for inspiration. I may even get up the courage to try my hand a story someday.

What took you so long ??? you were ripe for the picking and I'm glad you've finally fallen off the tree to join us nuts down here.

NancyB, does that mean we're all fallen women (well, except for the blokes)? (Yeah, yeah, I crack myself up.)

Welcome Gypsum! Yay Silmfic!
