Mereth Aderthad 2025: Call for Meta Presentations

[daughterofshadows]

Are you a meta writer? Do you want to share your ideas at the SWG’s birthday party?

Then you should read this post!

As you might have already seen, we’re hosting our own Mereth Aderthad next year to celebrate the SWG’s 20th birthday, and as part of it, we invite you to present your meta about Tolkien’s legendarium.

Presentations will be delivered live, either in-person or virtually.

• Presentations should be 15 minutes in length.

• While any topic related to Tolkien's works is acceptable, priority will be given to presentations with a significant Silmarillion component.

• Proposals are due by January 15, 2025.

You’ve never done a presentation like this before or submitted a proposal? 

Don’t worry! We’re here to help. In the coming months, we’ll be offering a variety of opportunities where you can find resources and support for first-time presenters, so you are ready to share your ideas and get that proposal submitted.

To learn more about these opportunities, subscribe to the SWG's weekly newsletter, join our Discord server, follow us on Tumblr, or follow us on Dreamwidth.

Proposals should be about 300 words in length and are due no later than January 15, 2025. Click here to submit a proposal. Questions are welcome at moderator@silmarillionwritersguild.org.
