After pausing for refreshments from Clive's and opportunity to browse the wonderful booktable from our friends at @EighthDayBooks we moved into our final session, entitled "No Ordinary Planet" featuring papers from Dr. @LukeBrake, @GCSalter, and Nathaniel Birzer.

Talking with friends about writing projects. One says, "Why would you have multiple drafts of something saved? That confuses everything." This friend is a Tolkien scholar.

I think screenwriter william goldman (the princess bride) and playwright robert goldman (the lion in winter) were on equal status during their lifetimes, but in different fields. Anyone else?
Di (Yee) - Currently not here@nguyenhdi

A recent conversation has made me want to ask: are there any sibling writers, apart from the Bronte sisters, who are equally eminent? More or less equal, not a pair in which one person is more known as "the sibling". A. S. Byatt & Margaret Drabble? William & Henry James?

Well, here's a new. A very thorough study of Thomistic theology in Tolkien's Middle-earth writings is being sold... through a romance book retailer called The Ripped Bodice. I know it has "Vices" in the title, but still...

@suzania Think I found a photo. Evidently a Vichy French fascist otter.

I was talking to Alastair’s mum about “Tarka the Otter” and said “unfortunately the author was a fascist” (Williamson was a Moseley supporter) & she thought I said “unfortunately the otter was a fascist” & that may be the hardest my mother in law and I have ever laughed together

The excerpt below is from *The Gospel in Dorothy L. Sayers*, this week's free ebook for Plough subscribers. Get the book here: plough.com/en/topics/cult…
Plough Quarterly@Plough

“God was executed by people painfully like us, in a society very similar to our own – in the over-ripeness of the most splendid and sophisticated Empire the world has ever seen. In a nation famous for its religious genius and under a government renowned for its efficiency, He was executed by a corrupt church, a timid politician, and a fickle proletariat led by professional agitators.” —Dorothy Sayers plough.com/en/topics/cult…

Watch the recording of *Nature Poems to See By* Book Launch, hosted by @JcScharl. At this online event, @jpeterscomics did a live illustration of William Carlos Williams’s “The Red Wheelbarrow” to demonstrate his artistic process. youtube.com/live/ZPL6H4WA-…

The annoying thing is that I made the exact same switch with my thesis (started with Aquinas, shifted to Hadewijch) - I must learn never to waste time with Aquinas! He's just not worth it, even though I've read every article on Thomistic aesthetics in the past 10 years.
M. H. Huisman@MHHuisman

Decided to rehash some research on Thomistic aesthetics for a conference abstract, only to discover after two hours that I don't enjoy Aquinas enough to write about him. Switched back to medieval mysticism/ continental philosophy -
