Welcome Aerliniel, that was a nice big introduction post! A pleasure to meet you, I hope you are having a good time here. :)
If you have ideas for the site or the forum and want to help out you should check out the Revival board. You can see what is currently going on and you can post ideas. We have members from many countries, cultures and beliefs on the forum so to ensure a friendly and tolerant environment a non-religion as well as a non-politics rule apply. But like you said, there is a lot of symbolism in the books - from many mythologies and from Christianity so it might be interesting to have a look at that.
But do head over to the Revival board to see what's going on! :)

Thank you all!

I'm sorry, Ea if I broke the rules or something!!! Did I? I sure hope I didn't!!! That's the last thing I want to do! Forgive me if I have! :blush:

Thank you, Elanor! You are a Narnia fan, I see? One of my friends is a Narnia fanatic! If you're interested, here is her website:http://magicalnarnia.weebly.com/ Enjoy!

And thank you all for a warm welcome! :-D

No, no, you didn't break any rules at all, no worries. :hug: I just wanted to mention the no-religion rule which means that we are very cautious when discussing Tolkien's books from a religious viewpoint. But like I said it would actually be very interesting to look at and compare themes and symbols and parallels from other mythologies and beliefs in LotR, so do go ahead if you want to do something like that. :)

Well, I joined earlier in July, but I don't believe I've really introduced myself, yet!

I'm Estelwen, I'm a young teen, a Catholic, a dreamer, a fairy tale lover, a book purist, a craft-lover, a singer, and obviously, a Tolkien addict! :) I've very excited to be here! I've browsed around the AU website, for a bit over a year now! I'm so happy to be here! :)

*sigh of relief* Oh, thank you!!! :hug: I understand where you're coming from! Where should I bring it up? I'm still getting used to the forum. Should I start a new topic under the revival thing? Thanks a bunch!

Well.. it depends on what you want to do with the topic. :) If you want to suggest putting together some text for the main site you might want to post on the Revival's board, but if you would rather discuss it with forum members and share opinions and thoughts on it you might want to put it under Misc. LotR book forum.. So it depends on the nature of the topic.

Okay! :) Thank you, Ea! (By the way, how do you pronounce that? It's in the Silmarillion, right? Means 'earth' doesn't it?) :-D

Hello! I'm Milla, but my real name is actually Amanda Emilie(or just Amanda). You can call me Milla, Mindie, Mandy, or Amanda. I am a fan of LotR of course, but I haven't yet read any of the books! Though I'm a huge fan of the films!

I am also a huge HP fan, both books and films, Narnia(also books and films), His Dark Materials(same), Disney and oddily enough Lazytown!

I love music and I love almost any kind of music(check my profile). I hate to be stuck in just one genre, it's just boring :sleep:

Okay, maybe I could give you some basic facts too. Okay, here we go:

Name: Milla
Age: 17
Date of birth: 4th March, 1994
Favourite colours: blue, green, purple and red
Favourite food: Italian and Indian
Favourite sweets: licorice, opera mints, sherbet lemon and jelly beans
Favourite drink: Fanta, but I also enjoy white, sweet sparkling wine.
Favourite time of the day: dawn and twilight
Favourite time of the year: Spring and Autumn
Favourite holiday: Christmas
Religious views: Roman Catholic
