UPDATE: THIS MOOT HAS BEEN POSTPONED DUE TO UNFORTUNATE EMPLOYMENT SCHEDULE CHANGES SEE BELOW FOR NEW DATE
With many thanks to Northeast Tolkien Society member Amy Hitotsubashi the Northeast Tolkien Society will commence its monthly Mythopoeic Discussion Group moots at St. Paul's Library, MONDAY MAY 14th, 2007, 5pm to 9pm. We will be discussing The Children of Hurin, and Tolkien and Shakespeare, the work of SK Thoth (forthcoming publications and recent CD), for those who have read them, if you have not you are welcome to discuss this with us, we encourage you to do so but is not a requirement. If the majority wishes we can move to any other discussion of the work of the Inklings.
On this day we will also narrow down the nominee list for the 2006/07 Imperishable Flame Award. If you wish to nominate someone in each category you will need to bring your desire to defend your choice amongst the group as you nominate. We will select 3 for each category and present this years list on herenistarion.org
We also encourage you to bring anything Tolkien and Inklings, or a connected fiction, fantasy, piece of history to the group. We may not necessarily get to everything this particular night but can place it on the agenda for the next moot.
But it will not be the only topic, we would like to encourage aspiring writers to openly read and discuss your work with the group, allowing it open for ideas, and insight from one another.
Also according to Amy for those who wish to meet before and/or after the moot:
"There is a good pizza place around the corner on Court St, a more up-scale Italian place on the corner, and numerous eateries 2+ blocks away on Smith and on Court."
