Teaching With Magic

Twilight and Act. Musings and writings into the life and work of J.R.R. Tolkien, especially that of Middle-earth.

The Turtle Moves

Ethnobotanist and Tolkien fan exploring why plants matter in Arda. Probably also some non-plant stuff too, sometimes.

Where Tolkien and Pop Culture Collide

My Explorations into Tolkien, Tolkien's Languages and related items.

My personal Substack

Tolkien scholarship (conferences, publishing, research, & esp. bibliographies!). ETA: after my June 7 post, I need to warn about an addiction to discursive footnotes and blending academic analysis with reader response (my own!).

Tolkien Studies, Queer Theory, Pop culture, Art History, Literature, Original Fiction, Poetry, Academic Work. An attempt at Horizontality. Dismantling the hierarchical value system one post at a time. (welcome art: Sara Kipin ★ logo art: dejja_blue)

Queering faith and fantasy in the worlds of J.R.R. Tolkien.
