Hello to the wonderful people of the Open Scrolls Archive.
I'm Jicky (obviously), a newbie. I stumbled across this place a few days ago and was like Good LotR fanfiction? Amazing!  so I thought I'd join up (plus I wanted to try the quizzes  ).
Oh and a major thanks to TexasGirl who has already made me feel welcome and pointed me towards this forum so I won't wander 'round blindly. 
Jicky. |

Welcome, Jicky! Feel free to poke around. If you have any questions about the challenges, give me or Maram68 a holler.
So... tell us a little bit more about you. Which characters do you like most? Are you into the Silm, or more LoTR? Books or movies? Viggo's knuckles or Miranda Otto's ... er, eyes? |

Hello, Jicky!  This is a great community for writers and readers alike. Just look out for some loud neighbors in forums. Do you write fanfic? Or are you just a reader? Either way, welcome to OSA!
And, Viv ... urm ... Viggo's knuckles? I lurk around a lot of threads, but maybe I missed something? |

No, that wasn't secret code for anything. It was me trying to be PG-13 and failing miserably to achieve coherence.  |

Thankyou!
Okay, about me... hmm...
I've read the books and seen the movies, but I like the books more. I adore the Silmarillion, and am looking everywhere for the HoME and UT.
I do write Fanfiction, but my Lord of the Rings stuff is nowhere near good enough to post. I'm trying to fix that but ME is very complex [/feeble excuses].
I hang around a few other Fanfiction sites, namely FF.Net (where my penname is 'Silver Queen',) and GAFF (Godawful Fanficton) and the PPC (Protectors of the Plot Continuum).
My fav. characters are mostly elves (Elrond and family; Legolas; Galadriel; Celeborn; Haldir, etc) though I don't hate any of the others.
Ah, yea , thats more info than was necessary, I think.

I don't think there's such a thing as too much information here.  Check out the Yourself A to Z thread. Most of us are shameless exhibitionists. |
