Archery (well one of these days I will get back to it), Reading and watching fantasy/science fiction books/comics/films etc. etc.
First Lord of the Rings reading experience:
A long time ago in a Galaxy Far, Far Away.
Seriously, I was very young, my already wizard-liking self enjoyed a good deal of the books. I do not like Hobbits except for Bilbo.
Favorite Tolkien character:
Somewhere between Treebeard, Beorn, Thorin, Girion and Bard.
Oh and Gandalf & Saruman.
