From time out of mind, Oloriel has been typing away in her little apartment, cats at her feet, hoping to reach out to other fantasy lovers by way of folkandfairy.com. Her discovery of Tolkien as a young adult awakened her long-dormant love of the otherworldly, and now she sees magic everywhere. Oloriel has a degree in writing, which she put to work during a three-year stint in vanity publishing - an experience not unlike purgatory and very much like having to read 20 bad books each week - which she prefers not to talk about. To renew herself, she knits, naps, reads, prays, writes, walks in the woods, and eats too many cookies.

Lest we forget that The Hobbit movies are about more than dwarves and dragons, a new poster has appeared with members of the White Council taking center stage. Galadriel, Elrond, Gandalf, and Saruman appear amidst [...]
There’s a new Hobbit poster on the horizon, and this one’s slightly grittier than the others we’ve seen. Of course our stereotypically good-looking dudes are prominently featured (Thorin, Fili, Kili) along with Bilbo holding the [...]
A slew of brand-new Hobbit toys hit the shelves today, and while these aren’t quite the wondrous toys from the market of Dale, for fans awaiting The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, they’re pretty darn close. Of particular [...]
