I think if I were to write anything the scope of works to tackle would most likely be a couple of biographies and/or perhaps a memoire. Really boring stuff.
The beestuffs, much is already written by many betters. I am just happy to contribute opinions here freely. Free to take them, free to leave them.
On Tolkien, yeah big fans over here. So much so that the new pup (dog) has been named Kili. (KeeLee). It is a good fit, I think.
