Tolkien Events 2017
A very late thread here; but I think some people would like to post about Tolkien related events this year.
I'll be going to Oxonmoot 2017 in September, having booked my place. Is anyone else here also going there? |

I believe Poison Ivy is going. I won't be (again) but I have a good excuse this year - being "godmother of the bride" that Saturday.

Is anyone else coming?
I'm sad to read you won't be coming, Mithalwen; but I understand that these important family events take priority...
It's good to read that Poison Ivy will be coming, and I look forward to seeing you again, Pervinca. Is anyone else coming? |

Oxonmoot
If anyone needs further reasons to come to Oxonmoot, I'll be giving a talk on "Advanced Materials in the Legendarium".
Hope to see many of you there!

Good to know!
That's good to know, Might! I'll be giving a talk on the Silmarils myself.
Like him, I hope to see many people here at the 'moot! |

At least returning to my old stamping ground meant I caught up with Poison Ivy who is not only attending but is going to be looking after the first timers. Consequently she has decided she won't be doing anything in the ents this time but we did play around with a few ideas for future sketches. Just hope I can make better progress with Gil-galad on "Who do you think you are?" than with the Oxonmoot paper I started about a decade ago and which remains spectacularly unfinished.

I'll see you there!
I'll see you there, Squatter! Good to read that you'll be coming.
I hope the wedding goes okay, Mithalwen. I was interested to read about 'the Oxonmoot paper I started about a decade ago and which remains spectacularly unfinished'. If you think I could help you finish it, please get in touch. |
