About me: Hi! I'm Cy. I've been a part of fandom for almost a decade and I just recently joined Dreamwidth. I'm still learning how to use DW, but I'm hoping to find some new fandom friends so If you ever wanna chat, my Discord is cy.walker (still trying to figure out how to use DMs here)

Good communities for newcomers include [community profile] getting_started and [community profile] reddit_refugees. See the "Reddit Exodus" post for useful resources.

[community profile] allbingo hosts a new fest each month. We just did Superhero Bingo in May; you can play any card at any time if you want to make one for that. July I'll be running Games & Entertainment; I checked my list of prompts and the Hobbit along with several of your other fandoms are on there in various formats.

I'm a Hobbit fan too. My mother read me the book when I was four.

There are tons of fanfic communities here. See [community profile] fandomcalendar, [community profile] followfriday, and [site community profile] dw_community_promo to find some that you'll enjoy. You can also search your fandoms on the Interests page.

A handful of roleplaying communities exist, most of them tied to a specific fandom. Consider [community profile] gaming and [community profile] i_love_games for general gamer talk.

Feel free to drop by my blog and see if you like it.

>> Oh wow, thank you so much for all the recommendations! I'll definitely be giving them all a look.<<

*bow, flourish* Happy to be of service. I try to help new folks get the hang of Dreamwidth and find things they enjoy here, so they'll stick around.

>>And aw, how sweet! I still haven't read the book yet, but I'm sure I'll find myself doing it soon.<<

Yeah, I'm an oldschool Tolkien fan, I liked hobbits before liking hobbits was "cool." :D

You can get the plain book for next to nothing at a used book store. But now there are illustrated and/or annotated editions that are really awesome, so if you're a visual person, look for those. The images can make great inspiration for fanfic.

goodbyebird: Star Wars: Luke is looking at you. (SW my #1 boi)
From: [personal profile] goodbyebird
Hey. For SW I'd suggest checking out [community profile] dreamwars and [community profile] swbookclub.

I'd suggest doing this, so people who check you out don't just see an empty journal.

Welcome to DW. It takes some work finding folks, but it's worth it :)

Hey there! I’m new to dreamwidth too and am still finding my two feet, but so far am enjoying it (it’s very much like LJ which I was active on before it crashed and burned).

As a fellow BnHA fan I thought you might be interested in the comm [community profile] bnha_fans! It’s modded by [personal profile] vriddy who is also a huge Hawks fan, ships EnHo and is a DW pro and I’m sure will be happy to show you the ropes (or direct you to all the good links which I cannot do haha).

Hope you’ll enjoy it here!

Welcome to Dreamwidth. I have been a long time user but I have this name since November of last year. I am sure that you are going to like it once you get the hang of it. I like The Hobbit movies and The Lord of the Rings ones. When I ventured to your profile, I hope that I do not act creepy, I noticed that we also have Batman and Star Wars in common too. I used to watch Transformers as a kid. Childhood memories. Hee. Unless you mean the movies. It is okay. I need to watch them at some point. If I am honest, I used to be a slash shipper. Years have past and I am more into het right now. Not judging. I was not sure if you had Skype, since I noticed your Discord ID, so if you like we could interact with each other. I even created a Discord for you if you want us to be friends. What do you say? :)

Okay. Awesome. I am going to add you, here too, right? I hope to remember how to do it in Discord. Has been years since I have done it.

First, welcome to DW! I'm hoping that you find your way around nicely, and if you need help figuring out how to navigate the site feel free to ask.

I absolutely love The Hobbit (Thorin is my favorite character, and Bilbo/Thorin is my OTP). And, of course, fix-it fics for that canon is certainly something I know quite well. *cries in BOTFA*

Friends?
