Welcome, Meriadoc, to OSA, a fun place to read and share fanfic where everybody's friendly! but we can't see through wiring.
So, I can't help you with what you are doing, I've no idea what you are doing, but some things that you could do are:
 Post fanfic you've written
Read fanfic others have written
Try the quizzes
Peruse the forum
Check out the challenges
Delight at the number of smilies there are
and otherwise hobnob with your fellow wizards.
And, now for some advice:
If you read, please rate and review. If you post, please seek out a beta first to help with punctuation, spelling, keeping in canon or just some friendly encouragement.
If you're a beginning writer, OSA is a good place to post. We try to be constructive and helpful.
So, Meriadoc, I must wonder, what brought you here?

Hello Meriadoc.
I feel a little awkward asking this, but it's a standard question.
Who do -you- fancy? Elves, hobbits...ect...

Welcome newbie hobbit! Hope you enjoy it here... and don't mind the crazies too much, or our rather scantily clad avatar images.

*flounces in with the basket of special cookies and a broad if harried smile*
Welcome welcome, little hobbit!
*sees that she is very late indeed and adds a few ales to the cookies*
I do hope you have a very enjoyable time here, m'dear, and don't hesitate to ask any of these fine folks for a hand with anything at all -- none of them bite, unless you ask very nicely!
