Tolkien bluesky! 🧝🏼‍♀️✨ With the holiday shopping season coming up, let’s get a thread of community/fan merch suggestions going! Could you share some of your favorites?

And if you’re an artist in the fandom, please feel free to share your store or commissions info!

Stealing this excellent question from @nateanite.bsky.social, asker of excellent questions:

What are your absolute necessities to pack when attending a Moot (or even a Con)?

I've been wanting to revisit a moment in Tolkien's Legendarium for comfort today, and I have my usual preferred passages for this, but I want to hear what others go to as well. What are your favorite joyful moments to return to in the Legendarium?

Since it’s Spooky Day, what are your favorite eerie, haunting, or horror-tinged moments, places, creatures, or passages from Tolkien’s Legendarium (or his other works)?

If you've been on @donmarshall72.bsky.social's clockapp coworking livestreams (which are my favorite to join while I get things done) or seen some of his videos recently... IYKYK

Also go check out his latest videos, join his Patreon, and come hang out with us whenever he does them!

Folks talking about getting into Tolkien through his works, the various films, friends, RoP... and I'm over here having gotten into them through Lord of the Rings Online... 🙈

We hope your birthday is filled with honey-cakes of the Beornings, we hear those are pretty tasty! 🎂

I've been working on a thematic line of stuff for my storefront so I can save up and replace my work laptop/set-up and what I use for events, networking and Bree Crossroads.

Anyone know of some close-up art of the city of Gondolin, not just the amazing aerial views we often see?

Did a thing to help support myself...

I’ve opened a storefront (link in bio), starting with Off to Find Faërie: Faërie has been a source of beauty, peril, strength & consolation long before Tolkien.

Tees, totes, mugs & more now available if it speaks to you too?

New edition of the Bree Crossroads newsletter is out!

Wherever you are, may this Hobbit Day bring you rest, recovery and consolation, and renewed hobbitry to face the world right now. Here’s to Bilbo, Frodo, and the enduring spirit of the Shire.

Happiest birthday to The Silmarillion today! Of all Tolkien's works, this one is dearest to my heart.

Art credit of course goes to Ted Nasmith for this Eärendil the Mariner piece.

It's up and running!!! Check out this thread for the link, details, and more! If Bree Crossroads is one of my Silmarils, the PPP Discord is another, the PPP Moot is my third Silmaril and the one I'm most proud of.

#Tolkien #LOTR #Silmarillion #Middleearth
We're excited to let you know that registration for the 2025 PPP Moot is open, along with reservations for our limited block of hotel rooms.

Our hybrid Moot will be this December 18th through the 21st, held at the Hilton Garden Inn DFW Airport South.

JRR #Tolkien’s The #Silmarillion was published #OTD 48 years ago. Here is a majestic depiction by kuliszu of its epic opening, the Ainulindalë: the harmony of the Music of the Ainur and the Discord of Melkor.

I wrote a little diary of my time in Oxford for #Oxonmoot, which you can read on my blog before I overthink and delete it because I forgot to mention multiple people and the delightful moments I shared with them.

Oxonmoot diary – 2025
I wrote a little diary of my Oxford journey on Instagram and figured I might as well share it here, even though it’s less academic-leaning and more of a personal take. My friend and I arrived in Oxfor...

Leave something Tolkien/Middle-earth related that’s encouraging below. Picture, your favorite place, story, quote, character, pet, art piece, or something else. And if you find something here that helps, save it as something to reach for when it’s dark. 🫂✨

As we wrap up the #AmonHen August Art Challenge and head into fall, #Tolkientober will be coming back this October, in collaboration with the #TolkienTrewsday crew!

As usual, I’d love to get prompt suggestions from the Tolkien community! Here’s the previous two years for some inspiration ❤️
