Hello, I'm sort of new, and feeling a little lost. Would someone kindly nudge me in the right direction?

I am Greywing, and write mainly humour (so far). Pleased to be here.

Well, as the Scarecrow says "some people do go both ways ... " Wink

Welcome, Greywing, to OSA. I'm Nancy and when I come to OSA I usually make my way straight to Minas Tirith, but then that's me (there's a wonderfully smudgy little pub on the fourth level serves a great porter and some of the Citadel guards are known to hang out from time to time Very Happy ).

I figure, since you got here, you must already have a good sense of direction! Where you go now depends, as Do pointed out, on what you are looking for. Thanks to the efforts of our illustrious and susceptible to ass-kissing Admins we have a lovely vertical navigation section over on the left part of your screen:

<-------------------<<

which can guide you to the fic - Tolkien and Others - quizzes, weekly and more lengthy challenges, the guidelines, etc. Or if you want your info to come to you, and not you to it, there are no LJ and RSS feeds accessible through the home page. The forum is the place for questions, although the admin addy (support@openscrolls.net) is preferred for 'how do I' stuff, generally.

To post fic you take the same route - Fandom, Genre, <<add story>> button - Voila!

Now, tell us a little bit more about yourself ... from what fandom does your humor derive? We don't get much humor around here (you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a legomance, however Twisted Evil ) and it's my opinion we could use more - Humor, that is.

I'll be looking forward to reading your work (and having you read mine, of course Pimp). I highly encourage you to rate fic when you do read, and take a moment to review. Also, if you need a Beta reader (highly advisable), you can look for one or advertise in the Beta Reader section of the forum.

Okay - I'm advised out, believe it our not. If I see you around that pub first round's on me.

Cheers,

NB

Hey Greywing!

Happy new year to you! I see that Nancy gave you te map to this place. I wouldn't advise on dropping breadcrumps since we have those hungry fell beasts we have around.

Rolling Eyes This doesn't always work that way... Since you (Nancy), if I remember it correctly, hardly reads any Silm stories, right? Very Happy Wink

Welcome on board, let me know which topping suits your fancy to go with your fav character and we set you up for that. Twisted Evil

Have fun sharing your stories here and we hope you join us in the fun we have in reading & reviewing works written by others.

Hello, Nancy. A pub, you say? Sounds fabulous, and perhaps I shall see you there there someday. Wink Thank you for introducing me to the clicky sideboard. Which is indeed very clicky. I gather you're an ally of Gondor? Very Happy

I write mostly Tolkien fanfiction. Not a very romantic person, and not madly in love with wood-elves, so, no Legomance from me. Apologies. Cool I am currently infatuated with the Silmarillion, though the sole fic I posted has nothing whatsoever to do with it.

Thanks for the welcome, Rhapsody. Hope the fell beasts don't eat my horse.
