Highlight of Oxonmoot that year 😂 I don’t have a picture of that particular illustration but I know it exists somewhere!
You and Journee deserve all the thanks!! You have both been superheroes and this seminar would not have been the phenomenal event it was without you both! ❤️

Oh how interesting! Happy to talk any time! ☺️
Very interesting thoughts! I am a freelance editor of science books and have been described as an “under editor” as I normally strive to preserve the author’s voice while ensuring the writing is technically correct. It can be a hard balance to achieve!
The latest edition of Amon Hen is landing in Tolkien Society members' inboxes and mailboxes!
Published every 2 months since 1972, Amon Hen includes #Tolkien news, reviews, articles, quizzes, artwork and more. You can get Amon Hen by becoming a member at www.tolkiensociety.org/join #BookSky

Oh absolutely! In some ways Jackson’s films are like a love letter to Bakshi’s movie. It’s definitely weird at times but I still think it’s very impressive!
I love this movie! And it’s so cool to see how much it inspired PJ’s trilogy. The prologue and the hobbits hiding from the black rider in particular!
Yes I am in the U.K. and the postage is steep… My husband got it for me for Christmas a couple years ago
Absolutely. But it breaks my heart when I read Morgoth’s Ring and he starts throwing out the beautiful myths of the creation of the sun and moon and the flat earth because he can’t make it consistent with the real world…
It’s either a work or art or an illegible scrawl 😂
It is just astonishing when you realise the depth of Tolkien’s creation!
It’s from The Art of the Manuscript catalogue from the Marquette exhibition 🙂

The amount of work that Tolkien put into the timelines and chronologies for The Lord of the Rings is breathtaking. I think one of the reasons we love this work so much is because the care and love of the author shines through with every word.
