Anérea
Bio
Although I've been reading and rereading (and watching) Tolkien for decades, I'm a newbie to fandom — but I dived in deep once I discovered it!
One of the things that brings me joy about this fandom is that there is something good to read for every mood. I love that I can jump from First Age Beleriand to Fourth Age Aman, from Hobbit adventures to Númenoran politics, Valarin shenanigans to Elves in modern times, and everything in between and beyond.
My own creations are mostly Silm-based. My art is predominantly inspired by scenes and characters from various fanfics or the moments between the lines in canon, while my ficlets tend towards the lesser-explored fringes of the legendarium.

I am very chatty, thrive on comment conversations, tend to go off on tangents and enjoy going down unexpected rabbit holes!I am Anerea pretty much everywhere except Tumblr where I am anerea-lanitiria.

My first visit to Arda was in my tweens which filled me with such a sense of saudade that I moved into Arda for much of my early teens.And then I moved on: over the next decade I travelled Earth, sleeping under stars, in forests and mountains, beaches and deserts, on four continents, with a sprinkling of villages and cities in between, enjoying the company of the often quirky yet kind inhabitants.
PJ's movies brought me back to Middle-earth and my obsession was renewed when I discovered HoME
Fifteen years on I discovered fan fiction (which saved my emotional sanity and provided comfort during some truly weird and troublesome times) and now my own creative desires, to paint and write, have been rekindled...
