Hello everyone

Joined up recently, and thought it was time to introduce myself. I,ve been reading Tolkien since I was a kid, and I've never since read anything to compare. When I read his works I just get so involved I'm totally transported into Middle Earth, like this is real and everything else is kind of fake. I've read almost all of HoME volumes and still blown away by the completeness of his vision.

So excited to find a community of like minded people, I've become kinda resigned to peoples eyes glazing over when I talk about ME, its great to have a resource like this.

Peace of the Valar to all!!

I am kind a dreamer person, as you can understand, this 'dreamer part' of me, made me a bookworm.

 

We are all Dreamers here my friend, one way or the other! And it is a dream we don't want to wake up from!  Welcome to PT! You'll fit in perfectly with us! 

When I read his works I just get so involved I'm totally transported into Middle Earth, like this is real and everything else is kind of fake.

Hello, I am recently logged on as a new member and was interested in the thread of The Silmarillion being made as a movie/film... I would welcome chat from many others as when the "CHAT"  box is up only one or a mere few names seem to appear for me to see yet it says that currently, as I am writing this,  there is 484 people logged on??? Why can't I see more in the chat rooms??? Your help and advice would be gracious.

I look forward to chatting with you people soon! Thanks!...   ILLUVITAR     :-)

Welcome to PT Illuvitar, hope you stay with us and enjoy it!

Welcome on PT!

Hello Middle Earthlings. I have joined your planet to see what I can find out about Tolkien's locations and place names in LOTR. I have loved the books and the recent films and am looking forward to the Hobbit film. I come from Sussex and have recently moved to Wales. I am 52 and have 4 children between 29 and 17, all LOTR fans. I print pictures for artists as a job and for fun I like to write (book length) stories beginning with the locations I know. While going through the process of writing  a new story using my current local area as a setting, I have noticed that I am walking in middle earth. I don't really know if Tolkien lived or stayed here but there are so many coincidences with place names and views that I feel that I am stepping in his footsteps. I checked out the forum Earth as Middle Earth, thinking it would be about geographical locations and left a post waiting for a Tolkien expert's view on this.

Anyway, the forums are interesting, and the film news etc. The name generator gave me such a funny name, made me laugh. I guess the joke is on me.

Welcome to PT Eglantine Longholes 

It is great to have more writers around and we look forward to reading your posts!

I can't remember if they appear in the movies, but maybe a wild guess might be when Elrond brings Arwen to Aragorn in the Return of the King.

Oh, and Welcome to PT Iloveelves 

Greetings to all.  This is my first time on this lovely Planet, so imagine my exhilaration.  I look forward to sharing my boundless deep love of the Professor and his world, with all of you fellow travelers.

Hi everyone!

I've just joined the forum and I thought I'd introduce myself.

Ten years ago, aged 10 I was introduced to Tolkien via: a rapidly worn out Video of the Fellowship of The Ring (I watched it four times in two days) and the reading to me of The Hobbit by my school teacher.

Needless to say I was hooked, I watched the rest of the trilogy in rapid sucession, but once I moved on to The Lord of The Rings books my fandom reached new heights, I was truly blown away and it remains my favorite book, (I'm currently on my Ninth re-read), The Hobbit, Unfinished Tales and The Silmarillion soon followed, and I'm currently devouring the HOME. Scarcely a day goes by when I'm not thinking about, reading, or watching something to do with Tolkien.

I've read a great deal about Tolkien and enjoy furthering my knowledge, I've heard nothing but good things about this forum, and couldn't resist sharing my enthusiasm with others, and learning and discussing more about the genius that was JRR Tolkien 

Hi I'm Therian and i love medieval fantasy and science fiction as well all kinds of mythical creatures. I'm still in school and i loved the Lord of the Rings movies since i was very young (although i was too young to understand the plot line but i really enjoyed fighting and war scenes), as well as the video games. I love role playing games such as Dungeons & Dragons. I enjoy LARPing (live action role playing) as well. So yeah I'm new to this website. 

Thanks Rukain i will!

I'm 13 turning 14 in October 

Hello, Therian, Marghana and Malickfan!

Welcome Therian! You are so young.... wow, there are people of all ages here in PT. You will fit perfectly.

Yeah Oerath, I have thought in Therion too. Hahaha. Wonderful band!

Welcome to all new people. There are people of all ages here. Therian, I'm 13 my birthday was at the 19th of March. So there are more young people here. I hope that you like this place. And that you stay here

Dearest Leelee, Thank you for your kind words. It means so much to me. You're the kindest and loveliest member at whole Planet-tolkien. That really is true. I admire you.
If there is anyone who wants to talk with me. Just send me a PM and I will answer. I like to talk to you.

Thankyou for the blessing. And also upon you. What a lovely sounding name. Welcome, welcome.

Welcome to our newest members. Explore, discover things, learn things and so forth.

I like to keep it simple, so that's pretty much it.

My name is Oerath Windsoul, and I'm a writer, often consider myself a poet or a bard in some ways, and I'm also a musician, though I only play drums and sing. Pleased to meet you.

/bow.
