So, l finally agree with my boss a different arrangement of my shifts. From today, l should have more time to dedicate to my passions.
I expect this will positively impact my activity on Litsy too 😁

I went ahead and finished the book before it went back to the Libby ether. Setting aside the various essays about the nature of fairy stories, this was a treat. Roverandom was my favorite. #fellowshipofTolkien

I‘m still plowing through Emma and Sea Wife for #joyousjanuary as well as one of the books from my #readordonate stash.

Daisey Roverandom is a fun story! 2mo

I finished Roverandom this evening. I‘ve read this one before, but I didn‘t remember the details, just the adventure to the moon. It was a fun little story of a dog, magic, and some adventures.

I almost forgot to share a word today, but then as I was reading the last few poems in The Adventures of Tom Bombadil, I came across this one. I‘ve heard brock as a name, and apparently that usage comes from its meaning as another name for a badger. Also, if you start looking, there are several fictional badgers with brock as part of their name.

repost for @Daisey:

In looking through these short works to develop a schedule, a daily one was going to be difficult with the variety in length and format. So, I put together more of a weekly schedule, while still completing all of them in January. Looking forward to starting these on January 3!

I‘ll tag everyone on my current list; please let me know if you want to be added or removed.

I promise we haven‘t forgotten about continuing to read Tolkien‘s work, but we have forgotten to share specific plans. We're going to read some of Tolkien‘s shorter works starting January 3 (his birthday). We‘ll start with The Adventures of Tom Bombadil and then plan to read Farmer Giles of Ham, Roverandom, and Smith of Wooton Major. All are included in the collections pictured.

This is a charming collection of short stories and poems by Tolkien. I really enjoy imagining young hobbits listening to “The Adventures of Tom Bombadil.” Sam‘s poem about a Troll arguing over a pile of bones makes me smile (it is the same thing he recites to Frodo, Merry, and Pippin under Bilbo‘s trolls in Fellowship). “On Fairy-Stories” was a more complex read and reminded me of the parts of Tolkien with which I disagree. #tolkien

I started my day with a bit of extra Tolkien reading time, but then I got wrapped up in my work for the day and forgot to post. I enjoyed rereading this story after so much other reading. It‘s an interesting perspective on some of Tolkien‘s possible thinking about the creative process.

No way I‘m keeping up daily with a challenge this month, but here‘s another combination catch up post.

Day 5: The forest prompt also reminded me of “Leaf by Niggle” and the symbolism of an artist creating an entire world through a painting of a tree in a forest. 🍃

Day 6: Along with The Fellowship of the Ring, there are a few poems that mention Tom Bombadil.

Daisey @JazzFeathers I‘m enjoying thinking about it, but I‘m also having a hard time coming up with connections that aren‘t directly from the story point mentioned in the prompt. So, my participation might be pretty random. 5y

Another batch of Tolkien stories (and an essay) complete! To think over a year ago I was vaguely sure I'd get around to finishing Return of the King eventually, and now I've spent every day for the last 7 months blazing through his catalog. I regret nothing.

I'm super excited to move on to the Histories now and get back into Middle Earth.

I finished the rest of the essay “On Fairy-stories” this morning. I enjoyed and appreciated the variety in this collection, including short stories, poems, and an essay. “Farmer Giles of Ham” and a few of the poems were probably my favorites. The illustrations by Alan Lee in this edition are also amazing.

"Fantasy (in this sense) is, I think, not a lower but a higher form of Art, indeed the most nearly pure form, and so (when achieved) the most potent."

This was quite an interesting look on what Tolkien considers to be fantasy.

“If fairy-story as a kind is worth reading at all it is worthy to be written for and read by adults.”

I really enjoyed this section of “On Fairy Stories” and appreciated a lot of what Tolkien had to say about fairy stories being for readers of all ages.

#YearofTolkien #LotRChapterADay

JazzFeathers I loved this part too. I think it's particularly relevant for us readers of fantasy. Have you ever been asked why on earth do you read fantasy? 6y
Daisey @JazzFeathers Honestly, I don't think so. Most people just can't comprehend how much I read in general, let alone all the different types of reading. My family always encouraged me in everything I read. 6y
JazzFeathers @Daisey l've been asked many times. When LotR film trilogy came out and a friend of mine discovered l'm a fan, she asked me, "But what does that kind of story even tells?" I mean, could l tell her LotR in two minutes? So l told her about the One Ring. When l was done, she said, "So when do we go see the film together?" ? 6y
Daisey @JazzFeathers That story is great! Did you convince her to try reading any of it too? 6y
JazzFeathers @Daisey No. Sadly, she never read the books 6y

I caught up on my #lotrchapteraday reading today! From Farmer Giles to today's chapter. My brain is mush, lol.

I really enjoyed all of it though, but I think my favorite is Smith of Wooden Major. I love stories that center around the mysterious will of the Fae.

#yearoftolkien

JazzFeathers Smith of Wootton Major is my favourite too. It reads like a foreshadowing of the Lord of the Rings. Or is this just my impression? 6y

Ok... I‘ve noticed a few people saying they are falling behind. So here‘s my suggestion, this book is technically done on Friday, let‘s wait a week or two before going on (so March 2 or 9th) to give people time to catch-up @InLibrisVeritas OR read the stories in this one that they haven‘t before @BookwormM (since Bombadil was already read).

“Leaf by Niggle” is different from the other stories by Tolkien that I‘ve read, but I really enjoyed the autobiographical comparison to his own writing style in the methods of Niggle‘s painting. I‘m incredibly glad I waited to read this until after rereading so many of his other stories and about how they developed over time. That understanding gave me a much better appreciation for this story.

#YearofTolkien #LotRChapterADay

JazzFeathers True, eh? I don't think l'd have caught the authobiographical details in this story if we hadn't read so much of his writing lately. It would have been s shame, since l think this authobiographical examination is kind of the point of thd story, l think.

Due to not reading for a month/finishing this entire book instead of just Bombadil, I‘m woefully behind on #LOTRchapteraday 😂.... but I can‘t complain. I began reading LOTR due to Litsy and I‘ve found a new favorite in Tolkien. 🧙🏼‍♂️

This collection is excellent. Along with creative and thoughtful tales and poems, Perilous Realm pulls back the curtain on some of LOTR‘s secrets. I‘m a sucker for completion and this series just keeps giving!

Riveted_Reader_Melissa Well we are still in the Silmarillion so you‘re not far behind. And yes, I‘m glad I wasn‘t the only one who read the other short stories in this book. I enjoyed the other stories too, but I think Roverandom might be my favorite, although the Farmer one was great too! 6y

#LOTRchapteraday Poem 15: The Sea Bell & 16: The Last Ship🤔My sunny morning turned into a rainy afternoon so Max & I finished the last 2 poems & are ready to start The Silmarillion tomorrow. I expected more jolly Tom Bombadil poems but it wasn't a bad read. 🐱Max says the Cat poem was his favorite & he liked (Sam's) Oliphaunt & the Perry-the-Winkle poems too but really he likes snacks & a ribbon bookmark better than any poems. 😹#catsoflitsy😽❤️
