Re: tolkien 's &quot;myths transformed&quot;

time permitting. that is the rub for me also. but I am in no hurry.
MM suggested multiple versions[ ?!?] an idea I don't think increases the already dubious practicalities- but it does reflect a few different legit. ways of dealing w/ it. So taking that as a starter. let us posit the possibilites and pick one for ourselves and encourage any who dissent to take up one of the others or add yet another.{ I am getting vague forshadowings of potential schisms already
: { just pondering this !
but nothing tried nothing gained.
so...let us try this on for size
1]amplification of existing published Silm
w/out radical cosmology shifts
2]modification of Silm according t's last recorded intentions {as in myths trans. } but using only his writings{ and
the barest of absolutely needed connecting links ???}
3] as per 2 but w/ folks contributing material to flesh it out as we guess T. might have done { as CRRT did w/ Doriath-Hurin finale}
4] ?
now I also posed the question at he white council about a home for this endeavor and more importantly for know I think [as long as it is in the preliminary stages]
getting the idea out to all possible pages- I am completely ignorant of tolkienboard /cyber protocoland such -any thoughts on that esp. from our esteemed Chief ?
