In 2024, Worldcon <\/a>– the World Science Fiction Convention – will be taking place in Glasgow (August 8-12)<\/a>. In anticipation of this exciting event, the Glasgow organisers have scheduled various online events for this summer – and we here at TORn are delighted to be joining them for an online panel!<\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Staffers Tookish<\/a>, Madeye Gamgee<\/a> and greendragon will be joined by our good friend KnewBettaDoBetta<\/a>, as well as staffers from Glasgow 2024, to discuss the perennial appeal of the Professor’s works. Just what is it about Middle-earth which keeps us coming back, again and again? What is it about Tolkien’s work which inspires so many ‘subcreations’ from such a wide variety of artists, performers and readers?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There will be time for questions; if you’d like to be able to ask a question, you’ll need to join the Webinar audience; you can sign up for free Eventbrite tickets here<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
