Hello! I found this site in my ever lasting quest for Hobbit-fic,and boy am I happy here! I have never posted any fic,but i have to say the atmosphere here makes me want to make my first forays into the writing (rather than the reading) side of things.
um....don't know what else to say,so I'mma go now.

Welcome! I'm sure the PHF here will be very happy to add another to their ranks. I'm a PEF myself, though I am happy to read a good hobbit or man fic.
Definitely do get into writing as well. You'll find it feeds your habit when you are waiting for your fix from other's writing.

Welcome! Elves, hobbits, dwarves, you name it...there is someone here to share you enthusiasm! I am partial to the beautiful elf border-guards of Tolkien's world: Beleg, Mablung and Haldir. 
We are a crazy bunch, so leave your sanity at the door!

thank you for your warm welcomes! I am partial to elves myself,in fact that's what started me reading fanfic. But then I read a story about Pippin,and I was hooked! I think I've spent just about every bit of spare time over the last week here,reading voraciously. Stayed up until 4 int he morning last night to finish reading Scribe's series (an A+ if I ever ran across one). My boyfriend has even been sucked in. We've taken to wrestling over who gets the computer to read stories on this site!
What an amazing collection of writers reside here...I am honestly surprised some of you are posting your stories for free. Having worked in publishing,I can honestly say that a lot of you here should (and could) get paid to do this! |

Welcome Dandieelyon! Wow, your boyfriend is hooked too?!?!? 
That's awesome! I only wish I could get my hubby on. He's not much for fanfic, though  . |

This is indeed the best collection of fic writers on the planet. Welcome and do enjoy!!!!

Yay, another hobbit lover here! Squeeee! I'm a "pervy hobbit fancier" as well, but I also like the men (and lately, the dwarves, he he).
You are most welcome! |

Oh Boy! are you in for a treat! We have some great Hobbit writers here. If you haven't already, check out Silvermoonlady's stories; few folks get into hobbit heads the way she can.

That is exactly what OSA members love to hear! We try to keep things constructive around here, and encourage writers rather than flame them into oblivion. We'll look forward to your first posting. And if you need help along the way, and someone just to look over that final version for typos, check out the Beta forum section. There are lots of members willing to help a newbie.

That's great. I hope somewhere in there you're taking the time to rate and review! Got to let the writers know their work is so riveting!
See ya around, DL. Again, welcome to OSA.

Obviously SilverMoonLady has not seen this thread. She gets all giddy when she sees a PHF. 
Welcome to OSA, Dandiee! Hope to see some postings from you soon!

But then, Sil gets giddy every time we tap a new kegger at the Dancing Donkey. Oh man, that was so way inside, sorry.

I hope this is being done in an orderly fashion, don't forget, every time you cut in line, Eru smacks Meriadoc Brandybuck with that little rubber floppy bar thing you use to seperate your good groceries from the creepy groceries of the guy behind you in line at the supermarket checkout.

Nope, no one's getting paid to do this but a couple of us have gotten arrested. Does that count? Well, I know the time Viv got arrested for stealing Eomer's horse and trying to barter it in trade at the Bay of Umbar yacht club for, "Just five minutes alone in a room with teh hawtness that drives the lead mumakil," should count for something.
 hmmm, nah, that wasn't off topic.
Hola Dandiiiieeeyyyiiiee. I'd like to buy an "O" Pat? Bienvenido a Escrollas Abiertas Archivos Internacional. I'll be your charming hostess, you can call me Spaceweavil...course I probably won't answer you cuz my name is Ghetto, but that's neither here nor there, I'm not much worth talking to anyway. Now, up here directly above us You'll see Alassante. Try not to make her angry, she's unstable. She is, however, the go to girl if you ever find yourself in need of any contraband as she is well hooked up with the men's wing of the prison.
Directly above her Is TexasGirl, fondly known as TG, although I call her Lenny sometimes just to watch her make that funny, wtf-have-you-been-smoking-this-time-G? face.
Not so directly and a bit off from the center above TG, we have Nancy Brook. Please notice the red pencil o' death that Nancy is clutching and repeat after me: I will not dangle, I will not over reach in my attempt to end every word with 'th' and I will not take more than my share of commas from the comma closet. Remember, every time you encounter a syntax discrepancy, Nancy ties Legolas up and makes him call her, The Magnificent Lord Gregory, all day whilst he plays Claire d' Lune on the Horn of Gondor and polishes the Anor Stone with his hair.
Next, we have Eyborg. Eyborg is little and cute and looks exactly like that hobbit lady at the fireworks show during Uncle Bilbo's Eleventyhundredth birthday party. Eyborg is also the keeper of NancyBrook's sterliing silver minted collection of White-Out brushes and is in charge of meting out punishments for excessive use of the phrase, teh ebol, even when we're just kidding.
Next up, DarkElfChild, more commonly known as DEC. Dec is the resident penguin wrangler and Minister of Arms Aquisition for the WTF Club. She is also honorary mascot of the "Howdy" Club, even though we all know that the closest she's ever been to a real cowboy is when she was stuffing dollars into the g-string of Carlos the Cowpoke, a stripper at her friend's bridal shower.
Next up we have Yavanie. Yavanie is my beta and ergo, I'm sure you can only imagine what a talented, intelligent and lovely person she is (look, you guys want updates? Then I gotta smooch the culo) Yavanie is married to Doc Rocheron, the local cannibas farmer and our go to man when we want to create a new way of looking at the world through the use of unconventional pharmaceuticals. Doc's catch phrase? What the hell have you done to my shirt, Ya?
And next in line is Shanalir. I don't know her at all as she refuses to associate with me and spends many hours, weaving in and out of traffic in an effort to shake my trail. I plan on continuing, nay doubling my efforts to sustain a meaningful dialogue with Shanalir, but first we must get her husband safely off to the seminar: Using Elf Visualization as a Marital Aid. P.S. Mr Shanalir. My husband would like to relay a bit of advice, and I quote: Don't be a fool man, encourage her to write hedonistic elf smut with unheard of positions and then noblely volunteer your services when it comes to testing their feasability."
Now that brings us to....well....you. Say hi to yourself but no touching yourself until we're done here.
And finally we have. Eruanna...Eru...Ah Eru Eru Eru. What can one say about Eruanna that hasn't already been said on all the walls of every bathroom stall in every seedy tavern within the steel gates of the Hidden City Gondolin. "Por favor, lave sus manos antes de regresar a trabajar" Which is Quenya for, "Beleg likes to wear my panties under his armor."
Well, that's about it Dand, if you haven't killed yourself in an effort to escape the magic that is Ghetto, WELCOME to OSA.

Welcome to OSA darling!! I was dodging nazgul this week and thus missed your entrance:) I certainly hope you enjoy the fic you find here (*gives Nan major snogs for the pimping*) and I look forward to reading what you post.

I love you. I will have your babies if you will go to my review thread.. any of them... and say that.
Okay, that's a lie. My baby-making days are long gone, but let me pimp myself...
I'm a PEF and a PHLF. Welcome to the insane asylum. Watch out for Ghetto.... (she spits when she gets excited...)
