HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL OF YOU! WELCOME IN 2023!
What ever crisis you are in, now it is a new year. Time to leave old sorrows behind and to focus on all the oportunities 2023 offers. What are you waiting for? You have 364 1/2 days to make this year the best one you have ever experienced.

But now to more topicreleated issues:
I'm an idiot and have unconciously decided to start a second Silm-releated project besides the Ellen-Ff (which, by the way, has a title now. It'll be either "lenda i morielenwa" or "mentië i morielenwa" both mean "journey of the blackstar", if I got the gramma correctly. But memtië means journey in a more methaphorical sence, like "the direction a journey takes" or something).

But I wanted to talk about my new project: I bought another (my third) version of the Silmarillion to illustrate the pages myself. I chose the Silmarilion, because it's more like a collection of myths and legends and therefore not as complicated as a real novel (and because I wanted to draw Maedhros' rescue from Thangorodrim of course. And Beren and Luthien. And the end of the first age. And so on...)

Well, I only just begun to draw, and that's the first page:

I think, it's quite beautiful. And I really like the style of it.

Something else. What do you think about that:

The second age. The Numenoreans have allready started to become evil and are a story the men of middle earth frighten their children with. Still, the protagonist (male or female) sneaks onto one of the Numenorean ships, when their coasts are attaced once more (maybe because their brother/sister was kidnapped by them some time before). So they reach Numenor and... I don't really know what would happen next, but it seems like a nice idea to me.

You'll read from me
