I asked the mom of the teen I sponsored for confirmation last year if there was anything I could get him for Christmas. She said he liked books. I said I assumed that they already had Lord of the Rings, because they're homeschool family. She said no.

Speaking of "Lord of the Rings cover bands" which is trending...

I printed off the final pdf of my book so that I can highlight talking and discussion points, but I’ve just found myself highlighting and enthusiastically leaving notes in the margin as these thoughts didn’t all come out of my own brain lol

It’s Thanksgiving where I’m at. So going to do TROPSgiving, credit to @teawithtolkien.com . I’m thankful for so many of you in the #Tolkien and #TheRingsOfPower community. Your kindness/artistry/humor etc. You help brighten what has been a tough and dark year. Much like Galadriel’s Phial of Light 🙏

One thing I wish other content creators would understand is that you’re always going to “get farther” by collaborating with, uplifting, and celebrating the others in your niche—and you’ll be doing so while making real friends along the way. It’s so much better than seeing each other as competition.
