No, Tolkien’s mistake was not in being religious. That is to his credit. As a Christian myself, I agree with adherence to faith in God, even if I disagree with his adherence to Roman Catholicism. Rather, Tolkien’s mistake was his avoidance of religion in his most widely-distributed works: The Hobbit and The Lord of the…

Unfortunately, the time has come to get the ball rolling on a decision I’ve put off for too long. I have decided to permanently remove the mass-market paperback edition of The Aos Si’s Gift from distribution. The purpose of the mass-market paperback is to provide a full-length book for a significantly lower price than hardcovers…

The Pale Man, Chapter III: Something in the Forest continues the story which began with the narrator’s arrival (somewhere) in Idaho in the first two chapters. Along with his sister, Ruth, the narrator (named…

Yes, I’m still working on the follow-up to The Aos Si’s Gift. I’ve started on the second draft, which includes some major overhauls to the first draft. A lot of work is probably going to the scrap bin, but such is life. In the meantime, I’ve been dividing my time between the follow-up to The…

In Fact, We Are Telling the Truth Using Different Tools So, I’ve left out the name of the poster—both the original poster of this and the person who shared it—because I don’t really wish to cause a ruckus at the moment. (I’m a bit busy for ruckus-causing and other mischief right now.) The emphasis was…
