Welcome to this quiete part of Downs blue!

There is no Index or somethings else to speed you up, sorry. But I will try to help if possible. Anyhow as you may have observed the forum has long periods of silents in which nothing goes forward. Compared to my last post in this thread we hav now finished our work on The Ruin of Beleriand. After that we started a rediscussion of open points in the previously worked on chapters. In particular The Lay Beren and Lúthien.

To get started you should read the thread Beren and Lúthien - Changes needed.

Respectfuly
Findegil

Well, I'm sorry I haven't been around much lately. But with Christmas break approaching, I thought it might be a good time to try and pick up the thread of things here again.

I guess where we left off was reviewing the changes to some of the already finished chapters, and I gather that we were on Beren and Luthien. This week, I will take a look and remind myself where things stand there.

I think I've seen Findegil posting in other corners of the forum fairly recently. Is anyone else still around?

Sometimes, sometimes..

Good to see you, aravanesse!

Are you guys still working on this? It's been a while since anyone has posted in the public forums. I honestly don't think I'd have time to write anything myself, but I'd love to review anything you guys have and provide suggestions. I love the idea of re-creating Bilbo's Translations as 3 volumes using the most up-to-date and consistent material we have from HoME and UT and the Sil.

Hi G85

Yes, this can be the quietist barrow of them all sometimes. But the work done over the 12 plus yeears, egads! well the work aiwendil and I and a few others started way back has gone on and I would love to join you in a top to bottowm review.

i think I am ready to do my end which was turn the rough footnote-ridden edits back into readable prose - with the hopeful help of some fellow editors.

But a thorough review is a great idea.

welcome to the weightiest, most ponderous and obscure corner of the downs!
