3. J. R. R. Tolkien's letter from Aragorn to Sam Gamgee, in which the King of Gondor informs the hobbit of his future visit and expresses his desire to "greet all his friends."

This handwritten letter, penned in Sindarin Tengwar, was created as an epilogue to The Lord of the Rings but was not included in the published edition.

Was an honor to meet the one and only Philippa Boyens! To be validated by her was sooo dope, and it assured me that the path im taking is the right one! 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿

the discourse can be fun! your life is too short and too beautiful to spend it weaponizing fictional worlds!

So maybe Celeborn has gotten lost in Fangorn Forest... #TROPtheories #TheRingsofPower

A Hobbit can never have too many books!

TOLKIEN: *submits manuscript of The Hobbit to publisher*

EDITOR: 'dwarves'? it's spelled dwarfs

@TeawithTolkien I was honestly surprised when I heard the showrunners say they had originally planned to kill him off much sooner. I’m just like, why do you wanna remove one of the most interesting parts of your show?? *cries in Uruk*

I’m also very much in the mixed bag camp

[The Rings of Power Tea ☕️ @teawithtrop]

How are we feeling about the finale?

For me it was a mixed bag — so much of the brilliant writing is overshadowed by some of my least favorite dialogue and story choices. Several missed opportunities in my opinion. Visually stunning as always though. #TheRingsOfPower

Wasn’t really planning on doing anything in particular for Hobbit Day, but ended up being surprised by a virtual baby shower with a bunch of my best friends from the Lord of the Rings/TolkienTok community and now my heart is so full—which feels pretty hobbity to me.

[Tolkien with Friends @TolkienFriends]

@estarguarstia It was so incredibly sweet! I cried almost the whole time haha. Thank you so much for the gifts! Love you!!

[Tolkien with Friends @TolkienFriends]

@TolkienWonder I love sketches like this!

[The Wonder of Tolkien @TolkienWonder]

In honor of #HobbitDay - here is a lesser known sketch of the exterior of Bag End by Tolkien himself!

Happy Hobbit Day! 🍄
