Username/nickname: kayleelupin, Kaylee Arafinwiel, or just Kaylee
Location (as general or specific as you prefer): San Jose, CA, USA

Favorite characters: My favorite to write is probably young Thranduil, or any of Thranduil's ancestors/relatives (OC or not) though I haven't explored Legolas as much.
How you participate in fandom (fic reading or writing, art, etc.): Reading, a lot. Writing, quite a bit but not as prolific as some. I began in the D-fic community (discipline fic) but Cathleen introduced me to LOTR_Gfic and I expanded from there.
Main interests in your Tolkien fanworks (characters, races, relationships, etc): I have an interest in all races, but I imagine the Elves will always be my first love. Relationships - I prefer canon couples and het or gen fic.
Link(s) to your fanworks (SWG, MPTT, DeviantArt, AO3, etc.): I am not sure how to link these things. I am Kaylee Arafinwiel on MPTT, on Fanfiction.net, (that might be KayleeArafinwiel though), SWG and on AO3. I'm kayleelupin on DeviantArt.
Other fandoms you participate in: Various - my fandom before Tolkien was Harry Potter (as my DeviantArt handle indicates) but I've dabbled in others as shown on my AO3. Mostly Supernatural.
Other sites you use (Tumblr, Dreamwidth, etc.): I have a Tumblr but half the time I don't remember my login. xD However, mine and Emma's "Iathrim Chronicles" now has its own Tumblr too. Just "IathrimChronicles" I think - or it may be all lowercase.
Non-fandom interests: I like watching movies and several different TV shows - Criminal Minds is my current one. I've written some original fics. I write poetry, both Tolkien related and not.

How often and what do you post: On my own Livejournal? Hardly ever, actually. I think the last time I actually posted ON it was a couple years ago. Mostly I use it for LOTR_Community and here.
How often you read your friends-list and/or comment: Rarely, to be honest. *blushes* Again, my friends are all here or the LotR Community group.
Friending policy: If you want to be friends with me, sure :) I like making new friends.

To finish off: what’s your favorite Tolkien quote? Too many to list, but I particularly love "Earendil Was A Mariner".
