September 22 is......

NOTE: THIS IS A DUPLICATE OF A POST I SHOULD HAVE POSTED HERE, BUT STARTED A TOPIC IN THE LOTR BOOKS FORUM INSTEAD!
================================================== ==========

I have been booked for 5:30 Central (Daylight) Time on the Shane McBryde show on AM 710 WNTM-Mobile to talk about NATIONAL HOBBIT DAY!

You MAY be able to listen in...

I (and another guy who does commercials for the station and who also reads at Barnes & Noble) will get a few minutes to talk about reading at the bookstore.

Of course, we will also discuss Hobbits, and my ongoing reading of THE HOBBIT at the store! I'll bring the book and read a little bit of it, I'm sure!

As many of you know in the United States, September 22, Bilbo & Frodo's Birthday, is officially Hobbit Day!

I have found precious little on the internet about it, however! If any of you have some information about when Hobbit Day was made official, etc. please let me know FAST!

Check out my Barebones Website for the pictures of my observance of National Hobbit Day USA!

Let me see if I can make this thing display an image or two...
