Tolkien

First of all, I'd llike to say hello, Brom, and welcome to the Barrowdowns!! May your rest be long and peaceful.

What sort of Elf name are you looking for? I have an Elven dictionary, but I first need to know~

1. Is this a female or male elf?
2. What sort of name~ What do you want the name yo be related to?~ Example~ Lissiel (Sweet Star)~ You would use this for a sweet, caring person.


I'm not sure about human names....Do you the person to be from Rohan or Gondor?....I have a Rohan dictionary, so tell me what you are looking for, and I will give you a name.~ Example~ My Rohan name is Siorra, which means "Silver Star"; when I run, my black hair supposedly flows behind me, and I look like a shooting star (this is not in real life, but in Rohan).

Tips on Writing a Fanfic~

Be true to the races Tolkien created, don't have elves, etc. talking in slang and wearing mini-skirts.

Be descriptive, include tons of details.

Develop your characters, not all at once, but, first tell who they are and about them a bit, and then slowly ellaborate them on through the story.

Sorry that I have been writing so much, I always get carried away.

Good luck on your story!! If you need anymore help, please, don't hesitate to send a P.M. (Private Message) to me. See ya around!!
