The Slow Season: What Now? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

And then, if none of that appeals to you, you can maybe try to have a brief vacation from the Barrow-Downs. There is a vast real-life world out there that you can try. As we're entering summer, you can try to go to parties or the movies or barbecues. You can even pick up some light, non-Tolkien reading. I know we all (at least claim) to love Tolkien more than life itself, but sometimes you do need a break. If what you are going to say in here is not constructive and you have nowhere else to turn except to "Oh...migod. Isn't Orli da qtest?", then I suggest you get away for a while, clear your mind, and take a 12-step de-Orli-izing program. When you come back, you will be refreshed and ready to talk Tolkien.
