This is the best book in the series and is where we finally get a wrap up to the epic saga that started with the Fellowship. The world of Middle Earth has finally been saved once and for all, and we get some awesome lore drops in the Appendices that sorta explain (but not in... Continue Reading →
News: The Witcher is Dying and is an Example of #GoWokeGoBroke.
On this blog, I often talk about how if you go woke, your show or franchise is going to decrease in quality until its completely unwatchable. We've seen this with Star Wars, Marvel, Indiana Jones, anything Disney-owned in general, The Dragon Prince, Rings of Power, etc. The latest on the chopping block is now The... Continue Reading →
Review: The Children of Hurin. Turin Turambar Needs a Hug and Some Time in Therapy (Spoilers).
The Children of Hurin, written by J.R.R. Tolkien in the late 1910's and published in 2007 by his son, Christopher, is one of the three great tales of the First Age. While it is one of the great tales, it's also the most tragic tale in the entire legendarium, and showcases best the heroic struggle... Continue Reading →
Blog: How to World Build
I've already covered how to write your villian, your protagonist, and your plot, but something that's just as important to the story is knowing how to build your world. This includes things like knowing how to write magic systems, how terrain/climate work, etc. and is the most technical part of writing your book. Just like... Continue Reading →
Blog: Hollywood Remakes and the Death of Creativity
When I was still in elementary school, I mostly wrote fanfiction for creative writing assignments. Often, many of my stories were retellings of fairy tales or had something to do with Barbie. The two stories I remember the most were 1). Frog and Toad meets the Barbie Spy Squad where Frodo and Sam were working... Continue Reading →
Review: Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers. Eowyn Wants to Kick Butt, Sam Gets to Use Frodo’s Cool Flashlight, Treebeard is Slow, Sauron is Somewhat Funny, and I Now Have Arachnophobia (Spoilers).
After reading Fellowship of the Rings, I obviously didn't stop to take a break, take some time to process the greatness of what I had read, maybe grab a snack. Nope. I immediately jumped to The Two Towers, because patience, what's that? I had made it my mission at that point to absorb all Tolkien... Continue Reading →
Review: The Magician’s Nephew. The Silmarillion Origin Story of Narnia (Spoilers).
After hearing the unfortunate and deeply angering news that Greta Gerwig is going to destroy The Chronicles of Narnia series, I have decided to re-read the books so that when the gut-wrenching time comes where I have to review her monstrosity, I'll at least know what I'm talking about when it comes to the lore....

Blog: I Went to the Rennaisance Festival After a Four Year Hiatus. I Have Some Thoughts.
I have always been a Renn Faire fan and have been going to my local Renn Faire with my family ever since I was a toddler. Because my dad's a medieval history nerd, we would always go at least once or twice a year...until the p(l)andemic happened in 2020. We went once in 2019 then... Continue Reading →
Blog: How to Write in English Mode Tengwar
The world known as Middle Earth that was created by the great author and professor J.R.R. Tolkien has reached millions of people ever since the publishing of his first book The Hobbit. However, something you might not know about the world of J.R.R. Tolkien is that he was writing about it as long ago as... Continue Reading →
Blog/News: My Thoughts on the Chronicles of Narnia Reboot.
It's a relatively good thing that Rings of Power (Rings of Racism), is coming out next year because I don't think I would be able to mentally handle the horror of having to review Rings of Power and the Netflix adaptation of Chronicles of Narnia. The anger of seeing not one, but two pieces of... Continue Reading →
