Greetings, my fellow hobbit lovers!
I don't know how often I am going to be updating this site for awhile. I know updates are already far and few
between, but it will probably get even longer and I wanted to warn you.
I request your prayers please. I am making my first attempt at a book length non-fiction piece. It's going to be
on the spirituality of the Lord of the Rings. Finally a way to make money (hopefully) and still be with our hobbits!
The best of both worlds! :)
I have read many books on the subject and the web is full of such essays that I have yet to read so I was inspired to
add to it all. I have grown so much through this story - learning as much from Aragorn as I have from Frodo - and
I want to spread the good news (or I should say Good News, if I could be so bold). So please, pray most importantly
that this book is a spiritual success. That is more important than financial, though I hope for that too! But if I could
touch someone or more than one and guide them like I have been guided, that would be so cool. Of course, I am
merely a pencil in God's Hand. It would be to His credit and glory any spiritual success since I am not speaking myself
of these matters. I know the Enemy is going to try hard to make sure I lose heart on this so I need your prayers to
strength my spiritual armor so his fiery darts will not harm me. It will still be a long time before you see anything
since I am just in my notetaking/transcribing to computer/reading more books stage. I want to have it out at the
same time The Hobbit movie comes out. I also want to quit my job so I can work on this full time, since that is
what it's going to need, but I can't do that because "I owe, I owe, it's off to work I go." :(
Hantanyel and lots of hobbity hugs and love for all your prayers!
No Iluvatar na le! (May God be with you!)
Namarie,
Your scribe and His,
Antane :)
Proud to be slash free!
