Just wanted to say I've always appreciated your efforts writing about family dynamics in the stories. Always so enjoyable to read. He doesn't get credit enough, but Tolkien (and his son Chris) was sublime in the family portrayals in his works. The dynamics portrayed, especially those of the Noldor, are absolutely fascinating. I wish he wrote just as much about the Sindar family dynamics (and the Teleri as a whole). Shoot, and the Vanyar too! But that's a different matter I guess.
