Welcome to The Inklings' Quill, a blog set aside for the study of one of the greatest authors of all time and father of the genre we now call "fantasy", J.R.R. Tolkien. This blog was originally created as a school project for a class on British literature, but I hope to expand this blog to something a bit greater. Thanks for dropping by! :D

Reviving the Classics

Hello, :)

It has been WAY too long since I've attempted to add anything interesting to this blog.  But, as this blog is dedicated to LOTR, I think it highly appropriate to revive it a bit with the release of the Hobbit. ^_^

I don't know about anyone else, but I am SO stoked over the Hobbit coming out in Theaters. :D  I have literally been waiting for this movie for YEARS... ever since I first read the book (which was actually AFTER I read the trilogy).  I've known they were working on a movie for -- oh -- about 2+ years, but the fact that it's actually coming out... that I'll actually get to finally SEE one of the best fairy-tale stories of all time come to life, has me totally on edge.

Because of this, I'm going to post some pictures. :D  I know some of you were probably expecting a more thought provoking post, but having just stepped out of finals a few hours ago, my brain is still a big ball of mush and nonsense. ;)  So pictures will have to do, and I will return to this subject as soon as I have something more intriguing to talk about. ^_^

About Me

My Photo
Star-Dreamer
I'm a Purple-Soul Creative with a love for all things artistic; the world is my canvas. I have been working with wire as a medium for roughly 20 years and have won the Employee's Choice Award 2019 in the "Creative Clay" contest through Fire Mountain Gems for a mixed media piece featuring polymer clay and wire work. I also dabble in other artistic outlets such as music, fabric, graphite, paint, and other mediums. My designs are original and unique reflections of a free-spirit and a gracefully eclectic outlook on life. Most recently I have started to include recycled materials into my work, and have also begun to upcycle vintage jewelry into a more modernly-accepted fashion. I am the oldest child of six, born to an artist and a musician. The ethereal magic of words has always been my first love, and I often try to mix this love with my other creative outlets. I currently hail from central Illinois, and live with my husband and our 3 little dragons (cats), all named after favorite literary characters.
