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 😁

Post 1/2: When I read ”Of the Flight of the Noldor” now after reading the History of Middle-Earth (HoME), I always miss the actual inclusion of the oath of Fëanor and his sons. Reading the words feels so much more dramatic than only a narrative description. So, I‘m sharing two versions. This is the version from the tagged book.

I saw this a couple of weeks ago and am only just getting around to posting it. I thought the #FellowshipofTolkien might enjoy this “Spell in the Library” with a delightful poet, scholar, and priest, reading from and chatting about “The Adventures of Tom Bombadil.” Malcolm Guite is an absolute treasure… and he reminds me of a hobbit. 😁

#FellowshipOfTolkien Readers,
Life has been a busy and I realized last night that I‘ve yet to share a schedule for The Silmarillion. I adjusted a previous schedule to include weekly catch up days since I know many of us are reading multiple things and The Silmarillion can be hard reading. I‘m so looking forward to reading this again with you all! I‘d love to see your edition as we get started.

3✨ I got to say I‘m not a fan of poetry, but this was a pleasant read. It was pretty short and the end of my version had commentary that at this time I opted out of reading. I like that I started this when it was raining because of this section. #FellowshipofTolkien @Daisey @JazzFeathers
I‘ve enjoyed listening to some selected short works of JRR Tolkien for the #FellowshipOfTolkien. The next time we do a buddy read of these works, I hope to have a print copy so I can see the wonderful artwork.
Today‘s word is one more from “Farmer Giles of Ham.”
pantechnicon: (noun) a large van for transporting furniture
That‘s a pretty specific word and an interesting visual comparison.

I finished Smith of Wootton Major and this little book this morning. I enjoyed all of the illustrations, although I thought the ones in Farmer Giles of Ham were better than this story. This one is a bit more bittersweet, but still a great story of Faery. Tolkien‘s short stories will never rank with his stories of Middle-Earth, but I do love seeing the variety.
