I had originally posted this thread in the books and it was moved here because 'The Books' are only meant for Tolkien books.
That's classic! Hopefully one day you get at least one of your ideas published, then we can bring up a thread on it in Books! By then I should have about 3 million posts!

My favourite of your ideas is to collate all the Dwarf information. If you included, as you say, background stuff in one section such as dwarves in Norse legends, I'm sure you could pad it out to a whole book. You could maybe call it something simple and direct like Dwarves from Tolkien.

If you really want to get it off the ground, my advice would be to narrow and define your focus - decide exactly which idea you want to do first and go hard. Maybe think up a title soon and try to stick to that.
