In June 2015 Myth Ink Books released an Advance Copy of Forgotten Leaves: Essays from a Smial at the New York Tolkien Conference. This volume of essays is a mixture of new Tolkien studies and previously published papers from the Journal of the Northeast Tolkien Society (once a smial of the Tolkien Society UK). Forgotten Leaves showcases fans as the first scholars. This publication presents a scholarly discussion that is open to scholars and non-scholars alike. Forgotten Leaves has discussions that are academic, fannish, and pleasant blend of the two.
