: : Well, I don't have a contract yet, but a small press publisher has expressed sincere interest in the project. Depending on how his projected costs go, my agent says I may have a contract within a week or two. I hope I didn't just jinx the deal. :): : I'm looking for a cartographer right now. I'm awaiting samples for two to arrive by snail mail, but if anyone knows of a Tolkien-knowledgeable cartographer who doesn't charge an arm and a leg, please email me with contact info and some background and I'll be glad to add them to my list of prospects. : : Assuming this all goes through as quickly as possible (and I guess I should expect delays in the process), then the book will be published in hardback next year. If the deal falls through, then I guess we'll just go back to shopping it around. :
: Good luck, Michael! I hope I can get my hands on a copy next year. Looking forward to the chapter 'bout the "Links between medieval feudal Europe and Gondor in TA 1409"... Just kidding. Then would you sign it for me, please?;) : Regards : Mjolnir Mjølner (why did you take that name?), you seem to believe that feudalism in M-E is dominating this board and keeps popping up again. try going through the Archives and see if you can find the discussions on the nature of Bombadil (and please do not try to start it again- we have had enough and believe that his nature will never be agreed upon).
