About Me
Stuff about me…that you may or may not find important
I have to talk about myself? O_o Well…this should be interesting. Let’s see...
You’ve been warned…actually, you haven’t, so I shall warn you now: I’m not sure how interesting of a person I am…
And I’m currently surrounded by muses (Maedhros at the moment, I believe…Fëanaro isn’t here (yet), so it ‘tis a little safer. Just a little. Eöl may arrive shortly.)
I didn’t actually become Tolkien/Middle Earth obsessed until about three years ago (If you must know, I’m 16) when I incorporated Tolkien’s Middle Earth and characters into my role-play(s). The Silmarillion became an obsession…last year. Not a terrible obsession, though. None of my obsessions are that bad, but people still think I’m weird if I tell them.
But that’s their problem.
Anyway…I like to follow canon. If I may italicize that: I like to follow canon. I try my absolute hardest (with limited resources: neither of my parents are Tolkien people, so my quest for the HoME books are not very…supported…and I’m not sure how much sense that sentence made…is not very supported?) to follow canon and not mess anything up if I can help it. And if I do write something uncanonical, I’ll acknowledge it. Hopefully. If there is something that I miss, please please tell me! Because I would very much like to know ;) (and I’ll give you a cookie^_^ … or cake…or pie…or something…in case you don’t like cookies…)
I don’t write as much as I would like to. But, whenever I do, I always appreciate constructive criticism. Underlined, bold, and italicized: constructive criticism.
I will probably spend more time editing stories than actually writing them. I actually like to edit other people’s works. Why? I’m not really sure. I’m just weird like that. Therefore, if you would like for me to edit something of yours, just send me an email, and I’ll be quite happy to look it over for you.
What else? A little about myself, perhaps? I’m 16, but you knew that already…I have a bird (cockatiel) named Kitty. I’ve been riding horses for about four years, and I volunteer at a therapeutic horseback riding center for children and adults with physical and/or mental disabilities. Personally, I believe I can draw better than I can write, but people seem to think that I can write too…so…maybe I can…(Some people have really criticized my stories. Not at all good for my self esteem, hence why ‘constructive criticism’ is bold and underlined and italicized above. Because I have had terrible encounters with the people who go: “Wow! This is really, really terrible!!! Why did you do this and this and this and blahblahblah…” And provide no useful comments. At all. *end ranting*)
And...I think that’s it. Perhaps I shall have something to say later, but for now, if you have managed to read through all of that rambling of mine, congrats! And thanks for stopping by^_^

Notes...
(8/24/07) Happy Saturday everyone! I’ve finally decided to edit my page and all that. Basically meaning, I’ve decided that I would like to become a very active member at SWG, as I was not before…so I wrote a bio, and now I’m trying to think of what else to write here…
