Tolkien Trewsday Week 50: Wetlands – Tuesday 6th February 2024


Week 50: Wetlands – Tuesday 6th February 2024
#TolkienTrewsday #TolkienTuesday #Tolkien

Welcome to #TolkienTrewsday #TolkienTuesday.

The hub for this Twitter-based event can be found here.

Tolkien Trewsday (the Hobbit name for Tuesday!) invites the #Tolkien community to form a fellowship to collectively tweet about a pre-selected theme about Tolkien, his works and his life. 

Each week a new theme will be selected, often via a poll or by a guest host/curator, and together we will build a collective outpouring of creativity, knowledge and love for J.R.R. Tolkien and the adaptions based on his works.

🖂 Scrying the bounds ahead: January 2024 Edition 🖃

With 2024 upon us, it's time to take a look at what is expected from the various Tolkien licenses. There are still currently only two license-holders for anything produced about Tolkien's works and the world of Middle-earth: The Tolkien Estate and Middle-earth Enterprises (owned by Embracer). To get an understanding of what each company owns, please check the License infographic here (Blog post: 1 February 2023).

2024 Upcoming Tolkien-related books

Welcome to the first edition of the "2024 Upcoming Tolkien-related books” page. These are the expected releases for (English language) Tolkien-related material over the course of 2024. The list may (and most likely will) change over the course of the year and I am sure there will be additions made.
