Hello everyone!
Here you can just post a bit about yourself and your interests (not too personal, kind of just your personality and stuff)
So...I'll start the ball rolling.
I'm Simbelmyne, I'm the Meduseld admin and I read The Hobbit when I was 6 or 7, LOTR at 8 and the Silmarillion at 10. I started the site in Feb 2002 and now have two other sites: In Dreams (kind of still in progress) and Addresses of Middle-Earth
The stuff about my personality has been taken from a bio I wrote for a different purpose ~ here it is.
My personality varies between three moods: hyper, normal and quiet. When I'm hyper I babble a lot, am pretty prone to verbal diarrhoea and if I'm like this, I'm pretty unstoppable.
When I'm not hyper, I'm normally at my normal kind of stage ~ reasonably confident, organised, still talking a lot and laughing but not too hyper. Honest.
If I'm not either of those, I'm actually quiet and reasonably relaxed. This is probably what I'm like when I need to work, and sometimes when I'm being serious.
But I'm hyper most of the time. Give me sugar!!!!
My interests (again, a bio excerpt):
Music is probably my biggest interest. It's literally my life. I play the French Horn, which is my absolute favourite instrument, and I also learn steel pans and teach myself piano, although I'm not very good at it. I also love composing and arranging pieces, and really want to learn musical theory sometime.
For me, music is only second to Lord of the Rings, my biggest love, mainly because it combines almost everything I love ~ art, music, reading and is just generally a great thing.
I also really like art and drawing, and recently (inspired by Ainulindale's beautiful art in her calligraphy articles for the LHH, located on http://www.councilofelrond.com) have taken up calligraphy, even though being a leftie makes it harder to do (which is why I write with the nibs back to front). I started it on holiday after spotting an art shop, going in to see if they had stuff and buying the goods, because there are literally no proper art shops that just do nibs and stuff around where I live apart from a big place called Hobbycraft, which only seems to do sets.
Music I like...obviously LOTR soundtrack and stuff, but I also love jazz (After doing it non-stop for about four days) and lots of stuff I can never remember the name of.
And reading and writing...these are two things I love. I read Tolkien, Tamora Pierce, Harry Potter, Philip Pullman etc. and I guess I generally write with a similar style. I love researching articles, especially on topics I like, but can often be disorganised ~ there's a lot of half-finished stories lying around somewhere!
Another of my favourite things to do is design sites. I have three of my own. I'm a computer geek
OK, your turn
