aranrhodinhimringSo I'm overcoming the dreaded First Post Syndrome, which I suffer from terribly! Introductions: I'm Ellen or El, and spent my five years in Comprehensive nicknamed 'Evil Ellen' by my history teacher. I don't know why either. I'm mostly based in the Tolkien fandom, but I make brief forays elsewhere, usually following the femslash or if I happen to have seen or read something new and shiny recently. My first and longest love is Tolkien, though - Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, The Silmarillion.
Mostly I'm a writer, though you might occasionally be unfortunate enough to see some of my fanart. I do meta too, but at the moment that analytical side of my brain is mostly taken up working on my Master's diss (plus I worry that I'll end up writing meta when it should actually be IN my dissertation - the problems of being in the fandom of a work you're studying academically). I'm pretty sporadic in terms of activity - I'll be very active for a few weeks/months, then disappear for a while, then reappear. Mostly it's tied in with 'how much can I procrastinate before I need to do actual work?'
I love femslash, stuff that focuses on women, anything like that, but I've also got lots of slash and het ships and read/write genfic too. Anyway, going to stop rambling, but hello, new blog/journal/thing!
