About Me

I have a passion for all things Tolkien. I have always been a reader, but when I first read The Hobbit, I knew I had found something special. The Hobbit was real, in a way nothing else I had ever read could even begin to compare to. But my journey with Tolkien actually began long before, when by chance I stumbled upon the Riddle of Strider poem. I promptly memorized it, and would speak it whenever I had a free moment, and each time it gave me a feeling of truth. It was special, something all my own. I found that at different times there was a different line that was most dear to me, most relevant, and it could define a period in my life. After some time, I put it out of mind for a while. And then, a few years later I was reminded of it again, actually because I noticed that many fictional characters I related to(in contemporary settings anyway) loved Tolkien, and this inspired me to explore his work again. The rest, as they say, is history. I am forever grateful to that fateful poem, the one that changed my life forever.

"Not all that is gold glitters, not all those who wander are lost, the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost."
