"The Fandom"
A bunch of crazies, dressing up, singing about 'Gandalf's fireworks', being the only set of people who encourage eating several times a day, and swooning over girly men with pointed ears.
Sound familiar?
This is my, somewhat nostalgic, look at the Tolkien fandom and the *gasp* forbidden world of Fanfiction. It a celebration, and not a rant. It is by no means a catalogue of my opinions, nor is it a list of "pet peeves" or "Do's & Do nots," of entering into the fellowship of Fanficer's - oh lawd that sounds wrong - ahem of fanfiction writers and readers.
It is. mostly appreciation memoirs, and...well...if you do decide to pass through;
"Tea's at four, everyone is welcome, don't bother knocking."
