“I found it is the small everyday deeds of ordinary folks that keeps the darkness at bay. Small acts of love and kindness” ~ J. R. R. Tolkien, The Hobbit

If you haven’t checked out this podcast, you should. The guests featured, offer insightful and inspiring looks into their journeys with Tolkien. I especially recommend this podcast for those of you who are working on academic pieces. The interviews/testimonials have been extremely helpful in my own research, especially to hear how established critics in the field, have experienced much of the same difficulties I have had in approaching his archival materials. Thanks to Luke Shelton and Dr. Sarah Brown for putting this together. This week’s episode features Shaun Gunner, chair of the Tolkien Society. See the link below:

Welcome

I wanted to create a place open for discussion, discovery, and introspection. I hope to share my writing ideas and projects, events, and research. Tolkien’s works have always be a staring point for the greater points in my life and when I need inspiration I find myself gravitating to his words.

Let’s connect
