Oi! Hi, all. My name's Lucy, I'm new to this archive. Not new to fiction or anything, though. I will admit that most of my writing in the past is slash, but I'm working on lots of little germs of ideas for LotR that are srtictly gen. So I need a good non-slash-crazed archive to put them at. 
Already posted a couple chapters of my newest here, so. Like. You can read it and stuff. If you want.
Got nothing else to say, really. If you want, pretend I ended this on some profound note or with some sort of Elvish quote or something. Whatever works for you.

Hiiiii!!!!!
*franticly waves hand*
Alright, I'm high on caffeine again, and (hear ye, hear ye) I have actually had a good night's sleep, so I'm feeling kind of funny right now!
So, welcome on board LucyHale!!! If you were looking for a good site to post any het material, then this is your place, since some of the guys here have some rather interesting... spicy stuff! *giving the young ones a strict look to keep them at bay* But there are lots and lots of good old canon stories as well, with a Sil group that's going strong and several Tolkien experts ready and eager to give everyone else a hand!
The forum is simply to die for (from laughter)! We do rather tend to go off topic on you, though, so just ignore us if things just seem to be getting crazy! Watch out for the spill and spew warning (will be explained in details shortly), as I have recently suffered from such incidents myself, and do not panic from the occasional colour/rambling/weird hummour attack!
And no need to go profound on us, really... We're silly enough on our own! 
Neni out! (and the rest of the guys will be dropping in soon!)

Ahem, welcome to the forum.
And let me be the first to say HOWDY!!!!!!
Please do let us know what you favor: dwarves, elves, hobbits, ents (it could happen).
and yes, the warnings are coming, particularly to caution you against drinking beverages while reading posts. Unless you really like cleaning your monitor, that is.
Oh, and be careful snacking while reading posts - the useable oxygent content of suddenly inhaled snacks is relatively low.
Do please enjoy the wonderful collection of stories (I'll leave the R, R, and R admonishment to others), and sign up for the virtual village if you've a mind to read about others playing in Tolkien's sandbox (if you really enjoy that, then you can stay and play as well).
Next.......

Me? I always stay away never go near the stuff it scary.    See me as innocent as Al, wait perhaps that's not the best choice. Well let's see........ I know Domeair! Yes I'm as innocent as Domeair.
Hello again LucyHale, type more later I see the looks the eldars are giving me gotta go!

I think you have your answer there.
Welcome, Lucy, to OSA. I'm looking forward to reading your story. I think you'll find that OSA is mostly a welcoming and supportive group for writers, though we encourage readers and reviewers almost as much (since we want the ratings and reviews they give  ).
The hobbit fanciers among us are few (and small), but vocal and enthusiastic . I'm sure they'll be happy to number you amongst them.
There's also some great Hobbit fic around here. Let me particularly boost Silvermoonlady and Eyborg to you  , although I know there's plenty more.
Now, go ye and be reading.
Ta - NB

DUH! okay I plead guilty (Ro is away and my mind/time is divided between my own hobbits and whatever else I might be multitasking at)
And so, LucyHale, the rest will be along soon.....
Next.......

Thank you, all, thank you very much indeed.
Right, let's see. I don't mind digressions and off-topics. I tend to be rather ADD in my thinking, so who am I to be calling pots and kettles names? Have all the fun you like here. I don't wanna be the buzzkill thread of the forum.
Yes, hobbits. I do love my hobbits. Me and my mum were playing the 'which species would you belong to if you could chose' game the other day, and yes. Hobbits. She's elf, of course, like most people I think. Me? Simple, happy, hungry, chubby little hobbits seem much more fun.
I'm also a bit of a minor character fan, so Merry and Pip are my hobbits of choice. Boromir would be my other highly favoured character. Him and his brother. *happy sigh*
What else? Oh, yes, I'm off and reading. I'll review when I can, but I'm stuck in the middle of this story and it tends to absorb my focus. 
Thanks again, everyone. I feel all warm and toasty and stuff. |

Hullo Lucy!
Please feel welcome here, more hobbit stories are always appreciated (besides stories about rugged men, hawt elves, grumpy dwarves, enigmatic ents, playful Nazgul, fellbeasts named Fluffy)... 
As Nancy said: SilverMoonLady is a great hobbit writer, but there are more of them.
Neniel: good to hear you are feeling better!
Ya: thanks for giving the heads up on the beverage alert. Lucy ask Alassante for techniques how to combine reading the forum and still be able to drink. Otherwise those cleaning swipes will become your best friend, but they can't salvage your keyboard.
Anyhow: have a great time here!

Hope I'm doing alright by you! I'm still in the early stages, of course, but exciting angst h/c lovely things are coming, promise.
And thankee for the welcome. I do adore the hobbits. Merry and Pippin are what made me read the books. Gone my whole life without before that first movie came out. Are you horrified? |

Hmmm, I was actuallly going to knock it off for the day when I smelled smoke in the hallway and thought, hey, what kind of buzz kill would I be to say nay to the sin semilla?
I have actually semi-quasi-sorta-adopted a 15 post minimum policy with the noobertos. It seems some of the lillier livered have a tendency to come in, shaking their 'tale' feathers, (hehe, get it?), and getting a borderline schizo-affective girl all worked up thinking she has a reason to go on, then turning and running off madly like sheep fleeing a drunken bachelor from Wales, (scotsman would have gone oh so much better, but I understand Space is armed tonight, so I shall refrain), leaving me an inconsolable mass of squished up and spat upon hopes and dreams. Unfortunately, Duchess, Silverado and Albertina Shmoo are usually delegated the thrill of mopping up the mess and have threatened to kick the living s*&) out of me if I don't curtail my more feminine side, ergo, the oath of the Estrogorean. To this oath I shall hold until death, depleted hormone patch or lack of chocolate and mood stabilizing psychotropics keep me from it.
Anyway, where was I? Oh yes, abandonment issues.  Please, what's your name, don't leave me like all the others, we have the potential for something really special here.  Neni? Hold me?.....It's so cold  .....and dark :: *sniff*
Heyyyy! Maybe I got your plague? Oooh, I could do such a good Merle Oberon in Wuthering Heights, "Nenny, I EM Heathcliffe!"  This is some good shit, NewLucyMarmalade, thanks
