Books! Letters! Mathoms! A Prize! Join us as we look back at 2023 - Site updates and feature launches, gratitude to our community for so many great contributions, a review of the books that came out this year, and some brief glimpses forward to what we might expect in 2024.

One of our announcements in this video is a newly created prize we want to give annually to someone who has gone above and beyond with contributions to this site. The inaugural winner is AndyBirdUK (with more than an honorable mention to onthetrail for all the hard work on the Guide to Tolkien's Letters). Andy if you could send me a PM with your mailing address... 😁
