Greetings! Welcome to my newsletter for January, 2009! Please feel free to forward this to anyone you think would be interested in keeping up with me. To...
Greetings! Two bits of news came up just after I'd sent out my newsletter for February that I thought I'd share now rather than postponing. First, the St....
I attended Odyssey in 2006 and highly recommend it. I thought I knew a few things about writing, but I learned enough in the first week that if I had to go...
The deadline for submitting nominations for the 2009 Mythopoeic Fantasy Awards (Adult Literature and Children's Literature) and the Mythopoeic Scholarship...
Do any of you know of any estimates of the number of Tolkien fans worldwide? Especially (but not necessarily) with a comparison of fans of the books vs. fans...
What are you considering to be a Tolkien fan? Someone who's read the book? For the films, someone who's seen them? That's excessively generous. Or, someone...
My publisher tells me that my book, _Arda Reconstructed: The Creation of the Published Silmarillion_, should be released within the next two weeks. ...
David, I definitely think that you count as nine Tolkien fans! :-) _____ From: mythsoc@yahoogroups.com [mailto:mythsoc@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of David...

Actually, I've seen Jackson's Fellowship five times, a number that fills me with horror. But I had good reasons. The first time was to see what all the fuss...
Well, it could be worse. You could have seen the Bakshi film five times, or worse, the Rankin-Bass debacle ROTK. Remember Saruman/Aruman with his twenty pounds...
... Yes, I still chuckle when I think, "It's still round!" ... And such an excellent essay it was, too. Consider your sacrifice to have been well worth it. ...
I just noticed that this note, which I had meant to forward to the list back in December, probably never went out. It concerns one of the books that our list...
Hi, (Not sure if this is off-topic of not - if so, many apologies...) Does anyone know of any other authors who write in a similar vein to Charles Williams?...
You might enjoy the books of Tim Powers. His _Declare_ is the novel which most shows his Christianity. (He's a Catholic Christian.) All of his novels are...
Hi Berni, Thanks for that - I'll give them a try. Although it is probably the non-Christian elements of Williams' books that most appeal to me, which is to say...
John, Try Gustav Meyrink's The Golem (1915). It's just one novel and so wouldn't tide you over much, I guess; but to me, it very much has a Charles Williams...
Just to clarify my previous message, the publisher now tells me that Amazon should have it in stock 4-6 weeks from when it is released, so it should be ...
I have these books for anyone who might want to review them for Mythprint. Contact them and I will send them to you. Ginger McElwee gingermc@... From:...
In that case, I'd suggest you go behind Williams and give Algernon Blackwood's JOHN SILENCE a try. And also Wm Yeats' "Rosa Alchemica" (most easily found,...

This should interest the medievalists in the group. UCLA has created a catalog with links to as many online digitized images of complete medieval manuscripts...
