During March 2023, Pages Unbound will be running our ninth Tolkien Reading Event. Every year on March 25, the Tolkien Society celebrates Tolkien Reading Day, and we like to expand on the event by hosting several days’ worth of Tolkien-related content. We have had some wonderful guest posts in the past and would like to invite you to submit a guest post this year.
The Tolkien Reading Event is open to a wide variety of posts. In previous events, we have featured everything from book reviews to quizzes to serious literary criticism. Pitch us an idea for any type of post you would like! You can also review books and movies that have been featured before; we love new perspectives!
If you need ideas, we are particularly open to posts about:
-the official theme shared by The Tolkien Society (usually shared closer to March)
-any aspect of The Silmarillion
-the art of Middle-Earth
-a tour of your Tolkien collection (books or merchandise)
-Tolkien’s villains
-your personal journey reading Tolkien
-reviews of books about (not by) Tolkien
-reflections on Tolkien’s “minor” works (Farmer Giles of Ham, Smith of Wooton Major, Roverandom)
-posts about Rings of Power
However, please be mindful of copyright when including images and texts. (Full poems under copyright can't be posted, for instance, but you can include excerpts in your post.)
