My name is Ellie. I've been a Tolkien fan since I was 12 or so.
I feel ilke I'm at Tolkien Lovers Anonymous. I think you were all supposed to reply, "Hi, Ellie," after I said my name.
I dearly love the elves of the First Age, particularly the Noldor. I've finally become brave enough to begin posting my first fic which is also my first multi-chapter story. It's call Crossroads of Time. I've written various limmericks, extended metaphors, and poem parodies which I've posted to a couple of Haldir-related Yahoo groups. The people are the Haldir groups are the ones who encouraged me to take this next big leap of faith.
My other hobbies include Celtic music, playing/teaching tenor drumming to the local bagpipe and drum community, reading (imagine that), punning, and taking things other than the way they were meant (usually in a humorous manner).
I've got a great hubby and three kids (ages 3, 6, and 9).
It's great to be here, though I'm still learning my way around things, and I hope to learn a lot.

Hi Ellie!
My name is Anna and I´m an addicted PEF/PSAF (Pervy Elf Fancier/Pervy Sauron Annatar Fancier)! 
Welcome to The Tolkien Lovers Anonymous!
You write limericks?! Wonderful! Our own SilverMoonLady is a genius when it comes to limericks!
So, you like First Age-elvsies....the Noldor, eh? Hey BB, here´s a friend for you! 
BB´s quite obsessed with especially Fingolfin. 
Anyway, a very warm welcome to you, my dear! |

HI ellie ,
I've got three young hobbits of my own (9, 6, 2 - all boys) sounds like we are in the same boat! I've indoctrinated mine early. Over the last 10 months we have worked our way through the Hobbit and a most of LotR, halfway through RotK but we only get to read about a chapter a night, homework permitting!
Anyway, this is a GREAT place to be! looking forward to reading your work!!

 Welcome Ellie!
I think you'll love it here. And I'm glad to have another Noldor lover around. I, myself, am quite taken with Maedhros. Okay....I just love those bad boys.
You're going to fit right in.

Yay, First Age Writer!
As House of Finarfin Defender on retainer, welcome to the Fun House.
Plenty of room for P1AEF's. Being the only male, I have all the females to myself, though I'm not afraid to share.
I am looking forward to reading your stuff, there is so little 1st Age stuff

Welcome Ellie. It was nice to see you hanging out over in the Silm reading group. Any lover of the 1st Age is all right in my book. You will find that I am a Pervy Elf Fancier/Pervy Sauron Annatar Fancier. It is easy to find PEFs, but the PSAFs are a bit harder to find. You will find that no matter who you choose to fancy Elves, Men, Dwarves, Hobbits, confused Maia, etc., you are good company

Thanks for the warm welcome from everyone! I really appreciate it a lot!
It's good to meet other lovers of the First Age.
Pardon my ignorance but, what is a Pervy Elf Fancier/Pervy Sauron Annatar Fancier?

There are many acronyms floating around here. What it all means is that different members enjoy reading and/or writing about the various races of ME. It's all a good natured sort of rivalry.
PEF - Pervy Elf Fancier (people who love Elves, 1st Age and beyond)
PHF - Pervy Hobbit Fancier (supporters of those who hail from the Shire)
PMF - Pervy Man Fancier (members who swoon for Boromir, Aragorn, Eomer, and Faramir)
PDF - Pervy Dwarf Fancier (Fans of Gimli)
PASF - Pervy Annatar/Sauron Fancier (a small yet devoted group of those who love the misguided Maia who became the Dark Lord)

If I post my extended metaphors, should each be posted separately by the character the metaphor is about? DItto on the limmericks, though I think they are all about Haldir.
Thanks for definitions of pervy. I'm a pervy elf fancier then.
Thanks!

There's no standard that I know of...
However, I did post all my limericks together in Bombadil's Corner as one "chapter"; if I write more, I'll post the next group together as the next 'chapter'.
My drabbles I posted one as a series of 13 'chapters' under one title; and the others under one title and several chapters; in both cases they were related, thematically or chronologically.
Just a thought...
