Due to B2MeM being massively successful this year and therefore monopolizing my time in a big way, the newsletter is dreadfully late. I do apologize--but here it is at long last! :)
http://www.silmarillionwritersguild.org/news/march2012.php
This month's edition contains news from the SWG, from groups beyond our borders, stories added and updated during February, and the current challenges on the site. In honor of Back to Middle-earth Month, Oshun has contributed the first part of what promises to be an informative and insightful biography of Gandalf. This part considers how he appears in LotR and The Hobbit (compared to the very different character we see in The Silmarillion and related works) as well as the archetypal roles he plays. The biography is also illustrated by Pandemonium_213.
Pandë has also contributed another in her series of brilliantly funny Gothmog & Draugluin comics. This month, Melkor prepares to whisk his wife away on a romantic getaway, and Lil Gothmog heads off to Tol-in-Gaurhoth with his babysitter (sorry! observer!), Professor Thû.
Many thanks to Oshun, Pandemonium, Rhapsody, and Angelica, who contributed to this month's newsletter. (And got their stuff in on time! :) Enjoy!
