I&#39;ve broken up the lines to make for easier reading. --JDR&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;Mr Taphouse said one day as he ran his hand&amp;nbsp;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;over a freshly-planed length of oak:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&quot;Feel that, boy, feel how old that is,&quot; Malcolm tried,&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;but all he could actually feel was the glassy smoothness&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;of the bare surface.&amp;nbsp;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;So he imagined it: acorn, sapling, mature tree,&amp;nbsp;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;a mighty canopy in the summer and a gaunt skeleton&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;in winter.

I am a very &#39;unvoracious&#39; reader,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;and since &lt;span style=&quot;color: red;&quot;&gt;I can seldom bring myself&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: red;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;to read a work twice&lt;/span&gt; I think of the&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;many things that I read -- too soon! --&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Nothing, not even a (possible) deeper&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;appreciation,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b&gt;for me replaces the bloom&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;on a book, the freshness of the unread.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&amp;nbsp;Still what we read and when goes,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;like the people we meet, by fate&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This made me realize who different JRRT&#39;s experience is from my own. If I like a book, I will read it again, sometimes repeatedly. Such was the case with WATERSHIP DOWN, FACE IN THE FROST, THE BOOKS OF WONDER, PERSUASION, of course Tolkien, and many another. I don&#39;t do it as much anymore, but that&#39;s largely because my eyesight is worse and partly because I now have more books available.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It&#39;s interesting to note that this is one of the many ways in which Tolkien and Lewis differed. Lewis loved to reread old favorites, and counted occasions when his doctor ordered a few days of bed rest one of life&#39;s not so little gifts. This was a trait he shared with his brother Warnie, who from time to time notes in his diary about re-reading specific books.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;As for THE HOBBIT and LORD OF THE RINGS: by this point I have no idea how many times I&#39;ve read both. I&#39;m always reading them, in a sense.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;--John R.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Currrent Reading:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;TALKING TO DRAGONS by Patricia Wrede (the sixth time I&#39;ve read it, according to my notes).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;THE WIFE SAYS:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;Lucky for Tolkien that his fans didn&#39;t feel the same way.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://sacnoths.blogspot.com/2024/05/re-reading-books.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (John D.

It was good to see her after all these years and to hear her perspective on what TSR was like in back in those times. There was one story I was sure they&#39;d bring up that didn&#39;t get told. Thinking back, it was before Stan&#39;s time. So I thought I&#39;d share. Here&#39;s how I remember it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A tradition at TSR every Christmas was the Tacky Gift Exchange, in which all the designers and editors who wanted to take part drew names from a hat and then traded presents on the last day before Christmas. There was a mathom that got traded around each year, but as might be expected from a great big room stuffed with creative people a few were memorable. *&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This particular year, 1993 or 1994, had seen the release of TSR&#39;s WOMEN OF FANTASY calendar, in which the staff artists had outdone themselves in the scantiness of the scanty outfits on display. &amp;nbsp;Whoever drew Karen&#39;s name had an inspiration: he or she got one of these cheesecake calendars, then went through a clothes calendar like Land&#39;s End and cut out clothes to cover the inadequate bits. He or she then taped into place the comfy sweaters and sensible slacks. The juxtaposition between what we might call the Caldwell school of illustration and what those characters might actually wear was hilarious.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I wonder if that artifact of the past survives and, if so, who has it. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;--John R.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;* P.S. For example, THE LITTLE BOOK OF ELVES, created I think by Rich Baker and given to Colin McComb; it was particularly apt because Colin had just finished PHBR6: ELVES&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://sacnoths.blogspot.com/2024/05/tsr-women-of-fantasy-calendar.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (John D.

Had I thought of it in time, I would have tried to make time to have gone by one of the spots in the area where turtles can be spotted in the wild. Or, failing that, one of the parks or gardens with ponds whose resident turtles can usually be seen.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&#39;ve always loved turtles, and had them as pets as a child (bought as baby turtles at Sterlings, the local Five and Dime)* and rescuing them out of the street if I spotted one in peril.** But unfortunately having indoor turtles and cats are a bad mix.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I did the best I cd, though, for the occasion, stopping by the turtle habitat in the local PetSmart when we spent some time taking care of the Purrfect Pals up-for-adoption cats today.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At any rate, the occasion reminds me that I still haven&#39;t read TURTLES OF THE WORLD, a beautifully illustrated book on turtles I bought myself at Elliott Bay Books the last time I was there. I&#39;ll have to see if I can devote some time to actually reading it sooner rather than later.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;After all, as I think Pratchett said (or was it Gaiman?): &amp;nbsp;it&#39;s turtles all the way down.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;--John R.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*Among other things, I earned the Boy Scout Merit Badge for Reptile keeping. I still remember Speedy and Swifty (who were grey rather than green), and my sister&#39;s Regina, among others.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;**including, twice, a snapping turtle, which are not to be messed around with. The key is to remember that it&#39;s neck is much longer than you&#39;d think, and he can get you from several feet away.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;THE WIFE SAYS:&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Given my reputation (cf.

The original article can explain it better than I could:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href=&quot;https://brucecordell.blogspot.com/2024/04/the-moons-of-earth.html&quot;&gt;https://brucecordell.blogspot.com/2024/04/the-moons-of-earth.html&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/earth-has-more-than-one-moon/&quot;&gt;https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/earth-has-more-than-one-moon/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What particularly caught my eye is the piece about Planet X (here called Planet Nine) and the&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;long and fruitless effort to locate some evidence that it exists. Instead this new approach is collecting evidence to prove places it&#39;s not, planning to solve the matter by process of elimination.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/where-is-planet-nine-its-hiding-places-are-running-out/&quot;&gt;https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/where-is-planet-nine-its-hiding-places-are-running-out/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;--John R.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The final intriguing bit for me is that observation that they might not find evidence it exists because it might no longer exist, in case they&#39;d be looking for traces it left behind.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Anyway, an interesting piece for those who like to put on their astronomer hat once in a while.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://sacnoths.blogspot.com/2024/05/quasi-moons-and-planet-9.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (John D.

The conceit is that an author planning out her new story decides to let the heroine decide what she will do, how she will react to the main events in the enusing story. Right from the start things go not-according-to-plan, as when the main character objects to the fancy clothes the author wants her to dress up in, as opposed to the practical outfit the character wd prefer. Character and Author clash over everything from what weapons she shd carry to her failure to fall in love all over the place. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It&#39;s not fan fic, which by definition is based on the work of others (particularly characters, but usually with setting too). It reminds me of Flann O&#39;Brien for an internet generation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;If you want to give it a try, take a look at&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eEE_pqix1dQ&quot;&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eEE_pqix1dQ&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;for this and other works by the same author; she seems particularly taken with fantasy armor and the shorthcomings thereof.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;--John R.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;--current reading: audiobook version of LETTERS OF JRRT, expanded edition (bogged down on the print book, so switching to the audiobook instead).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description><link>http://sacnoths.blogspot.com/2024/05/author-vs-character.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (John D.

A medieval triptych is a large central painting flanked by two smaller panels that complement the central image in both style and theme. By analogy Brust&#39;s triptych focus on a central figure, with the subsidiary figures chosen for the way they highlight specific elements all three share in common.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For example, one cd bring together a trio of tempresses centered on Guinever as she appears in&amp;nbsp;&lt;i&gt;The Fall of Arthur,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;flanked by Lady Bertilak from &lt;i&gt;Sir Gawain &amp;amp; the Green Knight &lt;/i&gt;and the Corrigan from &lt;i&gt;The Lay of Aotrou and Itroun&lt;/i&gt;. Another triptych cd portray women trapped is failed marriages: Erendis (&lt;i&gt;The Mariner&#39;s Wife&lt;/i&gt;), Aredhed (&lt;i&gt;Silm&lt;/i&gt;), and Miriel (ibid). Or yet another of warrior women, headed by Eowyn (who best exemplifies the role within &lt;i&gt;LotR&lt;/i&gt;), flanked by Galadriel in her virago role in her early days (as depicted in &lt;i&gt;UT&lt;/i&gt;), and Haleth (also &lt;i&gt;Silm&lt;/i&gt;), who unlike the other two remains a warrior-maid throughout her life.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The possibilities are myriad. I look forward to seeing what scholarship this scholarship inspires.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;--John R.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;P. S. I&#39;m not aware of anyone else working along these lines these days, but it&#39;s interesting to note that one of the earliest books on the Inklings, ARTHURIAN TRIPTYCH by Charles Moorman, used this as its central image in his 1960 book on Charles Williams, C. S. Lewis, and T. S. Eliot, though it&#39;s too long since I read it for me to remember any details. &amp;nbsp;--JDR&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://sacnoths.blogspot.com/2024/05/the-art-of-triptych-brust.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (John D.

Brust suggests we could learn a lot by bringing together in comparison or contrast women from the LotR &amp;nbsp;(Galadriel, Eowyn, Shelob, Goldberry, Arwen, Rosie Cotton) and the core texts from the legendarium, esp the 1977 &lt;i&gt;Silmarillion&lt;/i&gt; and 1980 &lt;i&gt;Unfinished Tales&lt;/i&gt; &amp;nbsp;(Luthien, Melian, Erendis the mariner&#39;s wife, Haleth, Aredhel, Ungoliant, Morwen, Nienor, Elbereth, Yavanna, Arien) &amp;nbsp;with figures from medieval literature (Pearl, Wealtheow, Lady Bertilak, Gudrun, the Corrigan, Gwinever, Grendel&#39;s Mother).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For more on Brust&#39;s method, see the next post.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;--John R.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;P.S.: extra points for anyone who can identify all these Tolkien characters without having to look up any of then,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://sacnoths.blogspot.com/2024/05/annie-brust-on-tolkiens-transformative.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (John D.

S. Lewis, written circa 1944 but not published until 1977.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I contributed an appreciation to the recent deluxe edition of DARK TOWER.

Not only is it a fascinating display but the little trees change so quickly that it&#39;s best if viewed every four to six weeks or so. Nor is that all: besides the Bonsai, the Botanical Garden as a whole is a quiet, peaceful setting.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ttat&#39;s why I was dismayed to learn that the people who oversee the garden have decided to cut down their biggest and oldest trees:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;The RSBG* has some massive trees over 150 feet tall and it&#39;s a significant expense in maintaining our plant collection. . . . While we have made substantial progress in shaping the garden tree canopy, work remains. Your gift will allow us to focus on &#39;problem trees&#39; and do more required thinning and, if necessary, removal.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So I&#39;m torn between wanting to support the Garden as a whole and dismay that they want to use that support to cut down the kind of trees I most want them to preserve and protect.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;p&gt;This is the kind of progress we cd do without.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At any rate, here&#39;s a link to the Gardens&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://pacificbonsaimuseum.org/?gad_source=1&amp;amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjw0MexBhD3ARIsAEI3WHK0pTOruYJ2y9WO6KnMWKsQl08EQ6WFPXI7Qdx0lqYE31dc527iI-QaAmHUEALw_wcB&quot;&gt;https://pacificbonsaimuseum.org/?gad_source=1&amp;amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjw0MexBhD3ARIsAEI3WHK0pTOruYJ2y9WO6KnMWKsQl08EQ6WFPXI7Qdx0lqYE31dc527iI-QaAmHUEALw_wcB&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;--John R&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;--current reading: looking over old non-TSR D&amp;amp;D modules I&#39;ve picked up over the years, from the recent GaryCon dealer&#39;s room through relics of the Judges Guild era.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*i.e. Rhododendron Species Botanical Gerden&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://sacnoths.blogspot.com/2024/05/dismay.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (John D.

About a year or so ago I had the opportunity to run the original as a short campaign for our regular Saturday night gaming group, who indulged me by letting me run it under the original 1st edition rules. I was quite an experience slipping back into the 1st edition AD&amp;amp;D mindset, and reminded me of just what I liked so much about that version of the game.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We didn&#39;t quite finish it, and I suspect our stopping point where we abandoned the adventure is the same as &amp;nbsp;many another group: right at the time the lich became aware of our presence and made it clear it was about to enjoy having a new batch of adventurers to let loose his powers and his minions upon.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;So thanks for that moment, Jennell, and thanks for all the quirky NPCs and vivid villains.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And for those who have never played it, give it a go sometime and get a taste of one of the expressions of oldstyle D&amp;amp;D at its best.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;--John R.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://sacnoths.blogspot.com/2024/04/my-newest-publication-dark-tower.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (John D.

It&#39;s a working document, not as complete or polished as one, now lost, that I did back in Lake Geneva days. But I hope some may find it useful, or at the least enjoy a glimpse back into our hobby&#39;s sometimes eccentric roots. **&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;right&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: right;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;, serif;&quot;&gt;—John D.

LaForce, a.k.a. DIESEL. Diesel was one of the original three artists who defined TSR&#39;s style back in the late seventies and early eighties through their work &amp;nbsp;on the PLAYER&#39;S HANDBOOK, MONSTER MANUAL, and DUNGEON MASTER&#39;S GUIDE, the other two being David C. Sutherland (DCS)* and Dave Trampier (TRAMP).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Anyway, the story &amp;nbsp;went like this.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We were at his booth in the Dealers&#39; room talking about people (designers and artists and editors) from the early days. Most of these I know only as names among the credits but whom he actually knew, and in many cases worked with. One such person, he told me, only worked at TSR for one day. His name was Dave Dorman, who was hired as a staff artist but then had second thoughts. He showed up for his first day of work, a Monday, and told them he&#39;d changed his mind. Then he turned around and drove back to Florida.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I mentioned this story to other ex-TSR folk there at the con, several of whom knew the name, though they&#39;d didn&#39;t know of his TSR connection. I did a little checking, and found he went on to a successful career in graphic novels So TSR&#39;s loss was comic books&#39; gain I guess.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;--John R.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*who I think was TSR employee number six&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://sacnoths.blogspot.com/2024/03/my-favorite-story-from-garycon.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (John D.

Yesterday from 5 to 8 was check in and, while in line, we ran into the first of what shd be many encounters with familiar faces from Lake Geneva days; Ed Stark, Jeff Grubb, Skip Williams, and Michele Carter, plus brief hellos to a half dozen or so.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I picked up what looks to be an interesting documentary on dvd: THE DREAMS IN GARY&#39;S BASEMENT. And speaking of basements, through a contact of Janice&#39;s we got some pictures of what the old TSR building on Sheridan Springs Road looks like inside now.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Today it&#39;s a late start, in hopes that starting the con well-rested will make for a better con experience. My first scheduled event, TOWER OF DARK SORCERY, is for the Middle-earth rpg, so it&#39;ll be unfamiliar rules along with what shd be v. familiar setting. It&#39;s at five o&#39;clock to eleven tonight, so there&#39;s plenty of time to see folks and see what the Dealer&#39;s Room might be like.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;But first, a late breakfast to start things off.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;--John R.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;--current reading: M.

There will be much rolling of polyhedral dice in the days to come. I&#39;m signed in for two events. First, a long session for THE ONE RING, the Tolkien-based rpg, which I&#39;ve never actually played before, though I have seen it played. Second is a return to Hommlet sequel. Other events I was too late signing up for or cdn&#39;t make fit in the schedule, like the Castle Amber** and a Call of Cthulhu adventure that sounded like it had a good set-up.***&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;And in addition to the games is the looking forward to catching up with fellow co-Workers back in TSR days.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Looking forward to it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;--John R.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;*One of the few places I can think of where &quot;Then I rolled a two and a five and took Irkust&quot; is a meaningful statement.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp; **I actually worked on one of these, back in the day (MARK OF AMBER, circa 1995).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;***It&#39;s set in a lighthouse, which sounds promising.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://sacnoths.blogspot.com/2024/03/here-in-lake-geneva.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (John D.

Singh not only provides a good survey of the rise of conlang and its current ubiquity but in the process shows the way Tolkien&#39;s use of invented languages set the standard for today&#39;s fantasy and science fiction. And in doing so shows yet another way in which Tolkien was ahead of his time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;To show just how far we&#39;ve come in sixty years, compare Tolkien&#39;s statement that THE LORD OF THE RINGS was&amp;nbsp;&lt;b&gt;essentially &quot;an essay in &#39;linguistic esthetic&#39; &quot;&lt;/b&gt;&amp;nbsp;(Reilly.136) with the abrupt dismissal of any such thought by early Inklings scholar R. J. Reilly, for whom the mere suggestion was absurd.&lt;b&gt;*&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;Reilly refuses to even take Tolkien&#39;s words seriously:&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;&quot;No one ever exposed the nerves&amp;nbsp;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;and fibers of his being&amp;nbsp;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;in order to make up a language;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;b&gt;it is not only insane but unnecessary&quot;&amp;nbsp;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;(Reilly.137)&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;center&quot; class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;Despite Reilly&#39;s confidence, with the benefit of decades of seeing Tolkien&#39;s ideas at work in theory and in practice, there seems nothing any more odd in creating languages than composing music or working crossword puzzles.&amp;nbsp;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot; style=&quot;font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt;&quot;&gt;People like to say &#39;Tolkien wd have loved this&#39; or, more often, &#39;Tolkien is rolling in his grave&#39; --a habit we shd resist when we can. But I have to admit to a bit of envy at seeing there&#39;s a biopic coming out this summer that creates a fictional encounter between C. S. Lewis and Sigmund Freud.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;I&#39;d love to hear and see what an encounter (say a one-act play) between Tolkien and some of his fellow language-creators wd have been like.&amp;nbsp;Maybe somewhere down the track someone will be inspired to put together a JRRT-meets-RIchard Plotz play or film. I&#39;d love to see it --though I have to admit my philological skills are miniscule and I suspect like most of the other attendees I probably wdn&#39;t be able to follow their discussion.

It took a lot of back-and-forthing trying to work out what I wanted to play vs. what was available and at what specific time slot.
