Mythopoeic Award Challenge (2008)
January 3, 2008 by orchidus
Lenneth is kindly hosting this wondrous book challenge in celebration of her new domain. In regards to the nature of the awards…
“The Mythopoeic Society is dedicated to the study and enjoyment of fantasy and mythic literature, especially the works of the Inklings, an informal literary circle at Oxford that included the likes of J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis and others. Each year the Society awards the best scholarly and literary achievements exemplifying “the spirit of the Inklings” with the Mythopoeic Award.” - Lenneth, Mythopoeic Award Challenge
