Ok, you suddenly find you are able to whisper across time and influence Tolkien as he is writing his LOTR/Silm epic.
What influence would you use to change what?
I'd have a happier ending for Andreth/Aegnor
Id make him put as much care and attention to Thranduil and his line as he did for the bloody Noldo!

| I would have gotten him to go a bit deeper with Gimli and Legolas...their further adventures. Not that all the fan fic is not great, just would have liked to hear more than what was said in the books...oh, and Merry and Pip and more Shire stuff like a Hobbit sequel kind of thing... I guess I would want him to have written more of just about everything, and maybe have finished the Silm the way he really wanted it. |

Ok, I've got one! ACURATE (set in stone!) dates for Feanor's life, including birth, marriage, children's birth.
More Fingolfin time  Wait - more chapters devoted to Fingolfin!
No! An entire BOOK devoted to Fingolfin...perhaps a collections of books...
You get the idea.

Silm 2 comes out in the fall of this year. Right Morakins? Or do I have my dates mixed up?

Mary Janes are shoes, Yoda. Not OFCs.
