William

A long time lover of Tolkien, William wants to share his passion for the classic fantasy world and the lore within. His collection of Silmarillion editions is extensive and he is frustrated that so many published cover artist only ever seem to draw boats.

When he’s not pouring over the texts, he lives his life in the spirit of Samwise Gamgee, working as a farm assistant in West Virginia.

Sage

For being a Tolkien novice, Sage knows a lot about the lore from listening to William wax poetic. Her tastes lie more with the tropey and trashy side of fantasy, but she’s willing to give the classics a good college try.

Her background is in the performing arts and she works as a community radio and podcast producer in West Virginia.
