Posts published with Steady for the months of May – August, 2024
All of the material published with thetolkienist.com will always be free for you to peruse as well as some of my work with my crowdfunding site over at steadyhq.com/thetolkienist. Having said that, I will not cross-post the work I am doing here to the other place or the other way around. This will only happen if the occasion arises. However, I would love to let the readers here at my blog know that there is even more to read and experience with Steady.
