SPECIAL GUEST:
The Scrolls of Middle-earth : VIII. Conclusion
Reading the Epic Tales in Original Form
VIII. Conclusion
Thanks for allowing me to share this project with you. If you are so inclined, I encourage you to round out your own collection of Tolkien lore with a scroll or two. I am by no means an artist or even a craftsman, but if I can do this, you can too. There is a sense of pride that accompanies the creation of a scroll - or other artifact of Middle-Earth. Consider such a project and then contact Turgon@TheOneRing.net to arrange writing a guest column like this one.
Due to copyright considerations, I will be unable to fulfill any requests for copies of my Word or Powerpoint files of the scrolls. But I would like to hear your comments about any aspect of the scrolls or other Tolkien lore. Please send e-mail to me at Steph_Thomps_98@Hotmail.com
Next time you are in the Hall of Fire at the Last Homely House of Elrond in Rivendell, stroll over to the group gathered around a storyteller. They are listening to the ancient tales of Middle-Earth read to them from a scroll. Bring along your favorite scroll and take a turn sharing the First Age stories you enjoy.
