Welcome, Vanya, we love new writers around here, and not just for desert either  .
No, truly - OSA is a great place for newly posting writers since we try to be constructive and helpful. I'm sure I speak for many members when I say I'll look forward to seeing your work.
In the meantime, come on in, set a spell ... tell us a little about yourself. What do you like about Tolkien & LOTR? Got a favorite character(s)? favorite Race? Read the Silmarilion or are you just a movie gal?
Sensitive readers are dying to know. 
Old news to most but not to you: I'm in the minority of OSA readers being a Pervy Man Fancier; Gondorians in particular and Boromir in specific, but I read all sorts of stuff and try to review/rate all I read. Take me as a roll model - please!  but just for the read/rate/review part  Pleased to make your virtual acquaintance.
Seizures 'round -
NB

Hi, Thanks for the welcome. Alittle about myself.Well Tolkien is one of my favorite authors,I have read The Silmarillion,The Hobbit, & all 3 of LOTR's.And i really liked the movies too.As for my favorite character well, Legolas because he is usually silent, but loyal to his friends and pretty darn good with the bow. I have several other favorite characters too.But i'll tell of them later.But thanks again for the welcome & i look forward to posting some of my stories.Good to meet you. I'll stop babbling for now

Hi. Welcome to the Asylum. I'm Zee... yes like the letter of the Alphabet. I'm also a Pervy Man Fancier... but I prefer the Rohirrim... the older more experienced ones. I enjoy my fair share of Elves as well.
Pull up and Elf and... do whatever...

You are your worst critic! I am sure that your stories are great. Don't feel intimidated here. Not all of us are fantastic writers.  Some of us just get all fan girly about them!
So welcome to OSA! Look forward to seeing your stories. I love elf stories.

Hail and well met, Vanya!
You will enjoy the open atmosphere and, dare I say the word, fellowship of the OSA members.
Join the fun/madness!
We are all a little crazy here, so don't worry about the silliness!

hello vanya, and a warm welcome to OSA!
I see you are a little worried about posting your stories - don't be!
If your a little nervous, why don't you try writing for one of the weekly challenges, they are only a 100 words long and loads of fun to do, great for newbies like me and you
free your mind and imagination - thats what its all about |

Someone who admires Legolas for his character traits? Will wonders never cease ...

Welcome to OSA, Vanya! It's really a great place. And I second Rohanion- the drabble challenges are fun and a good way to give a little push to our imagination and creativity.
