Happy Hobbit Day!
Recently I realised that as I get older & better remember being under 4' tall & going on adventures, I wanted to be a Hobbit. But one that did magic. Thinking about how & where that might occur led to a story. #HobbitDay 💙📚🪐 #Fantasy

Today is #HobbitDay because Bilbo and Frodo Baggins were both born on September 22nd.
Normally we'd shire a hobbit pun or two but it might just feel like a tolkien gesture and we don't want to embarrass our elves.
Anyway it's a good day to come and boromir #Tolkien books. 📚
