Decided to do Couch to 40k. Day 1 you buy a soucebook, and then within a couple of months you're deeply in debt and have several hundred unpainted little shooty mans.

Join Alan and @nerdoftherings.bsky.social as we step back in time to the establishment of the Tradition of Isildur in our final episode on Cirion & Eorl. dcs-spotify.megaphone.fm/GLSS19582890...

youtube.com/@nerdoftheri... This channel has been helpful and entertaining whilst reading The Silmarillion.

In case you were wondering - the new War of the Rohirrim song indeed has an Old English line! (Tolkien’s Rohanese is HEAVILY inspired by OE.) Fun fact, Éowyn’s funeral song in The Two Towers film is also OE.

Sorry for the lack of posts and videos. Been dealing with work, life, and mental health stuff that didn't leave much time/energy for regular posts. I've grown and gotten through most of it so I hope to post soon. I was able to host @nerdoftherings.bsky.social last week: youtube.com/live/Y2iwYSX...

No offense to my LA friends. 😁

Great fun today from @nerdoftherings.bsky.social! And heartfelt thanks for the inclusion of my work. See more of my Tolkien art and MiriamEllis.com, but only after you visit all the pubs and inns of Middle-earth with Matt: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fsrv...

Huge applause for Matt from @nerdoftherings.bsky.social! This interview with Professor Shippey is utter joy from beginning to end. Thank you, Matt! Made my evening watching this: www.youtube.com/watch?v=WGQe...

So what’s the rate limit around here? Seems I’ve exceeded mine on another app. 😂
