No Roving Ranger for Tolkien Tuesday, Dec 15, 2020

For the Roving Ranger I have a number of sources that I regularly go through on a daily basis which after seven days provide enough material to send out as a full newsletter. However, this does not hold true for the last week so I will keep the items of the week leading up to Dec 15, 2020, and add them to next week’s newsletter. Please accept my apologies; sometimes there is a lull in news.

The Blog Roll
These are blogs you really should be following if you’re interested in Tolkien …

Some of these, you may find, are not as active as one would hope; but even if they have not posted anything new for a long time they are repositories of great essays and research on all things Tolkienian and always worth your time. The blog roll – and this very newsletter! – has been inspired by Troels Forchammer’s Parma-kenta and his excellent Tolkien Transactions he did for seven years – they are still sorely missed!
