Enchanted Living: Return to Middle-Earth

Overview
Enchanted Living is a quarterly print magazine devoted to the enchanted, the magical, and the mythic in everyday life. Its pages have long explored the intersection of nature, folklore, and artistry—from the quiet mystery of a mushroom ring to the crafted elegance of a gown made of roses. This call for essays on the theme 'Return to Middle-Earth' asks writers to engage with the enduring legacy of J.R.R. Tolkien's imagined world, whether through personal reflection, critical analysis, or lyrical meditation. The magazine's curatorial vision is one of reverence and wonder, favoring prose that is both literate and accessible. Essays should evoke a sense of place, history, and enchantment, aligning with the publication's celebration of the magical in the mundane. While the theme is specific, interpretations may range from the literary to the ecological, from the scholarly to the deeply personal. Accepted essays will appear in a print issue, reaching a dedicated readership of enthusiasts, artists, and scholars. There is no submission fee, and the magazine does not charge for consideration. Writers retain the opportunity to see their work in a beautifully designed quarterly, where text and image are woven together to create a cohesive aesthetic experience.
