Introducing the Houston Tolkien Literary Group

November 25, 2003 at 01:53:48

Houston area Tolkien enthusiasts are working together to promote literacy -- by talking about J.R.R. Tolkien!

Several members of the large Houston Tolkien fan community have banded together to create Houston Tolkien Literary Group. The group's purpose is to promote literacy through an appreciation of select fantasy books by authors such as J.R.R. Tolkien.

Xenite.Org founder Michael Martinez, author of books such as Visualizing Middle-earth, Parma Endorion, and Understanding Middle-earth, has joined together with Vince Smith, better known as Thenamir of The Barrowdowns, LovesBeren, a popular contributor to several Tolkien discussion forums, and She Elf, a professional illustrator and also a participant in several Tolkien discussion forums.

The group's goal is to help increase public awareness of the literary value of the works of authors such as J.R.R. Tolkien and J.K. Rowling, as well as to encourage and promote literacy.
