I am inviting all authors and artists who love Tolkien to participate in my April Tolkien Challenge!
Every day, there will be a new object central, which is the object we will be talking about! Do whatever you want with this; Write a piece about it, share information about it, create something art-related about it….anything goes!
I’d love to see your work! Tag me in it, reblog this post with your piece or use #apriltolkienchallenge !
For anyone who cares, I have finally decided to start a Facebook page. You can visit, like and share the page at the link below (or don’t, I’m not bothered what you do):
In honour of my swanky new page, I’ve decided to update a few of my more popular posts, starting with my Lord of the Rings route map. This post was the first one to really take off when I posted it nearly 4 years ago. Thank you to everyone who liked and shared it and followed me since I started this Tumblr page back in 2012.
…and if you want to see the original route map, you can still see it below:
- “Moria… You fear to go into those mines. The Dwarves delved too greedily and too deep. You know what they awoke in the darkness of Khazad-dum… shadow and flame”
- “But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer.”
- "At last all such things must end but I would have you wait a little while longer: for the end of the deeds that you have shared in has not yet come.“
- “Nay, time does not tarry ever, but change and growth is not in all things and places alike. For the Elves the world moves, and it moves both very swift and very slow.”
