What should be changed in a New Silmarillion? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Well Galadriel, there is not much more Ainulindale to put in! Though what bits were left out of the last version has been re-included excepting the occurences of Aelfwine.

We can only add according to our principles [see that thread] and from what JRRT wrote. No Fan-Fiction here.

Perhaps however there is a conflation of projects in your mind?

There is side by side to the work now also another project, a guide of sorts that I am working on with a couple of others that has no relationship to TftE at all except that the membes of both frequent the downs and in particular this forum.

Also the Ainulindale of TftE/the revised Silmarillion is nearly done, if not done and may be made available in some form for a brief period coming up.

Whereas the Ainulinddale 'entry' for the guide being worked on is still in it's infant stages. As the thread 'Can anyone speak to the physics of the Ainulindale?' and it's links in the books forum show.
