Sarah Samudre's Tumblr

I'm a writer, filmmaker and producer based in Seattle, WA. I work with my husband, Vasant, and this Tumblr has generally nothing to do with anything I just typed.

THIS Tumblr is about the things I find interesting. Videos, TV shows, quotes, art, random rants... you know. Tumblr stuff. Also, recently, this Tumblr has been a place where i draw things...

This is where you can BUY the things I draw, like Smauglock, Dumbledore's Army and a lot more to come in September...

I also curate the Hugo House Tumblr

The elves being there was the only book discrepancy that really bothered me. Because elves, for the most part, just do their elf thing and don’t get involved.

Three words:

TOM FUCKING BOMBADIL.

Like we really need the “toss the dwarf” scene in Khazad-dum.

I love it when you get all literary about LOTR, Sarah, it is wonderful. as are you. and also I love YOU. xoxoxoxo

Oh, fairest and loveliest of all the Jules, I hold BACK on Tumblr. As nerdy as I get about Tolkien online, it’s nothing compared to how Claire and I and other Ringers can get when we’re face to face with each other, vibing off the other nerd energies. I once had a friend who would bring his volumes of Tolkien over and we would discuss, in length, the Histories of Middle Earth, while going back and forth between volumes, trying to understand and anchor our knowledge of Tolkien’s vast mythology.

There’s no mythos in the world of literature that compares with what Tolkien created. I have ten of his books and my collection is actually woefully small compared with what it could be. I ONLY have The Silmarillion, The Hobbit, The Fellowship of the Ring, The Two Towers, The Return of the King, Morgoth’s Ring, The Children of Hurin, Unfinished Tales, The Letters of J.R.R. Tolkien & The Legend of Sigurd and Gudrun (and only this last one is outside the Middle Earth cosmos). I’m missing like 19 other books. This, ironically, makes me feel like more of a loser than my vast knowledge of Middle Earth does.

To stop rambling though… I LOVE that you accept me and love my Lord of the Ringiness.

Which brings us to…

~this is driving me wild~
In a

or a 

kind of way? Should I expect flowers or some kind of military bombardment? Or a bombardment of flowers? 

I vote the third. Whatever you were feeling, I vote the third option.

And I like daffodils. They’re the best flower.
