Hi Bridget, welcome to Planet-tolkien and our happy family.
Share and enjoy!
Wonderful to see all of the interest that this site is generating, not to mention the communication that is going on. Myself, I'm a new member, and I love the format of the threads. Hoping to see more.
Welcome Bridget and Starhawk. Hope to see you joining in discussions around the site because it is our members who make this site so very good and enjoyable.
Hello everybody. Having finally found a decent forum to join I am Ciaran. Intrigued by the whole works of JRR I could not avoid joining this forum. Anyway, I love medieval literature and am currently wrting my own stuff now also. A novel on the Anglo Saxon era bringing in courtly love, chivalry and honour, tragedy, significance of heathendom in Saxon times and the downfall of such qualities in modern day life. Also, I am on the point of publishing an epic Lay in Icelandic structure as an allegory on the troubles in Northern Ireland. The point I'm making is get them when they finally come out! I will no doubt post the titles when they are nearly ready (and when I think of a decent title). Yet I believe that I owe nearly everything (inspiration wise) to Tolkien.
Hello there mate, welcome to PT. I hope you enjoy the site.

Grondy moved Aiwendil's introduction and replies to the new thread:
Aiwendil's introduction
What?!!!!
After all this time I read what 'Grep' has to say, and feel like a total moron. I honestly thought he gave himself the name Grep because it was a real name name and felt badly that it was to me a yuccky sounding name. I like Art a thousand million times better. (blushing with humiliation)

As I remember the name "Ant" had already been spoken for, which required Ant to find an alternative; thus he logs in as "Grep".

Hi, I'm Jack and I'm new to the site but the first time I heard of LOTR was from the movies but then I read the trilogy and the hobbit, finally I read the silmarillion and The Children of Hurin and I've been a Tolkien fan ever since. ( I started reading the books when I was about seven.)
Hi Jack, welcome to our happy family.

I have recently noticed your Morgoth name in the threads.
Share and enjoy.
Welcome my mighty brother!
Thanks Thinker, Grondy, and Ammornil.
Hello and Welcome Morgoth. Enjoy your stay on our little planet

Quick update: Two days ago an anonymous buyer purchased PT for an undisclosed sum. New management is in effect as of today. Best wishes, Grep.
That's rather a surprise. Will you still be around Grep?
You will be missed, Grep! As I said here:
PT for sale
I hope you will stop by and say hi. You too had many ideas and visions for this site, I'm sad you weren't able to bring them to life. And thank you for paying the bills so we all still could be here, even if you didn't have time to spend here yourself.

Edited by Amari’ to fix the quote code.
This is a site for those who love Tolkien's mythology firmly and so I assumed that it might be the same case with you.
