Tolkien Conference

Post by Shurijo » Tue Dec 16, 2014 11:31 pm

Hey,

Just a heads up for New Englanders (or anyone else), the local university is holding another Tolkien in Vermont Conference in April. There's been some pretty great/geeky talks and presentations presented. You can view some of the papers as PDFs on their website.

http://tolkienvt.org

If you click on the year sidebar (on left), then you can see/read the previous years' papers in PDF form.

If you decide to attend, just let me know. I should have a spare bed or couch you can sleep on (as long as you don't mind dogs & cats).

Dogs and cats are awesome! Especially if properly seasoned!

Most likely.

I'm trying to talk the local brewers into making some special beer and/or mead for the event :) I have our local meadery interested (he's a Tolkien geek). Now I just need to talk a beer brewer into being interested and then figure out how to get them in contact with university/host to make things happen.
