Have you read any of his "less popular" works like the _Simarillion_?
Somehow I missed your question, sorry about that. No, I've not read any of his other works like the Silmarillion (though I could write a very thorough dissertation on the etymology of that word), but I have read one of his less popular works very unlike the Silmarillion, entitled, "Beowulf: The Monsters and the Critics". A very fine article. :D

Maybe sometime. Isn't it something like this? Eru makes Ainur, Ainur start singing, Melkor starts rapping, some Ainur join him, Eru makes the world, (somewhere along the way they kick Melkor out), Valar invite elves to Aman, Fëanor makes rocks, Melkor takes rocks, everybody fights over rocks.
Forgive me for saying that in such a comical way, but isn't that kind of what it's like? :D
Hiruko Kagetane

@Sam: And the Lord of the Rings is about a witch sending a little short guy to go assassinate the devil, right? (Just kidding.)

Anyone know of an Elvish font out there?
InSoloChristo
I know of lots, actually. The one installed on this computer is Tengwar Annatar. Another cool one is Elfic Caslin, which is basically Latin-style tengwar. My favorite (of all, not just those two) is Tengwar Annatar.

For those who may be interested (also known as: none but myself), I have worked out and published a thorough reconstruction of the Sindarin dual. :P Exciting, right?

Today I finished my translation of the book of Ephesians from Greek to Quenya! (Though I yet have some polishing to do, probably.) Here are links to both my blog post about it, and the translation itself:

Do you know anything about Helge Kåre Fauskanger? He has a site http://folk.uib.no/hnohf/whoami.htm with a lot of work that he has done with Quenya. I probably have said this before. :D

Indeed. His were the course and dictionary which I have used. (Though we disagree on several things…)
@Sarah: Thanks!
