Hi there,
Since this forum looked so um..., people friendly , I mean, writers friendly, I thought I'd join.
I have lots of ideas for fics and have already posted one short story here
It's a huge challenge for me to write stories in English since it is not my native language, but I trully enjoy writing.
I'm studying Psychology and learning lots of languages, reading (mostly fantasy) and writing in my free time.

Welcome! And don't feel shy about the language thing: we have lots of members who are writing in their second and third languages. I so envy you guys (I have enough trouble with my one and only language)!
Maram68 and I are available to answer any questions about the challenges (lower left corner of the main page), and there are loads of other fun things to do on the site (have you checked out the Quiz section? It's that question mark in the nav bar at the top of the page )
Glad to have you aboard! |

While you're checking out the quiz section, Triss, if you come up with any quiz ideas, feel free to toss them my way. Always glad to have new ideas. That means less work for me.

Meleka, I really don't mind the question
I'm from Poland (Warsaw - the capital) so my native language is Polish. I've been learning English for about ten years now and French for 5 years (in a bilingual school). I know also bits of Russian, Japanese and Latin and this year I have started learning Spanish. As you can see I just love learning languages
Andreth, I have not yet done all the quizzes but most of them. It's real fun .
How about a quiz concerning all the genealogy of different characters? Who is related to whom and how etc.
Thanks again, to you all.

Hello and welcome Triss
Don't worry about the language thing, we are a nice bunch here and a lot of us are non-native speakers too  |

I think it is wonderful to have TWO OSAers from Poland.! Welcome to TRISS and ROBIN!
One of the great things of OSA is that many people from different parts of the world are joined by a common love of Tolkien's world.
This is not unlike the Fellowship--made of four Hobbits, one Dwarf, one Elf, two Men and one Maia--who came together for a common cause: to destory the One Ring.
As the Elves say, "Hail and well met!"
It's a lot of fun here...

Thank you very much Una and Eruanna.
It does seem to be a multinational forum and that's great.
I have a sense of deja vu here but it's nice
I suppose I should post more on the forum so I wouldn't be welcomed again a year after I first introduced myself. I'm a bit reluctant to post much in English because I always think that whatever I post is full of grammar mistakes and is surely hard to understand Oh well, time to get past this barrier and confront my fears lol I'm studying psychology after all, I should know.
Thanks again.
Triss |
