Hello there,

I hope that some of you will be aware of me from RPG Forums Online and that you will not consider this post to you as an intrusion, but I wanted to introduce to you to my new forums, The Hobbit Forums.

If you are unaware of my work to date, I created the extremely popular role-play site, RPG Forums Online, and I hope that my new Hobbit project will be just as successful. The main initial focus of the new site was based around the new "The Hobbit" film to be released in 2009, but obviously aspects relating to the book and video games are also in it, as well as the possibility to participate in specific "Hobbit" play-by-post roleplays. All in all, if you are a fan of Tolkien, the Hobbit or the Lord of the Rings, or any fantasy genre, I'm sure there is something here for you.

We are in fairly early days at the moment but site traffic and content is increasing and I'm confident that it will grow into something truely wonderful. And by all means, if any of you wish to register and contribute to The Hobbit Forums, then please do so.

Anyway, thanks for listening. The site is:
