Who am I, Gamling?

Hello! My name is Myla, a 20-something collector of Tolkien memorabilia. I wanted a space where I could catalog my collection and connect with other collectors so End of Bag was born. My inspiration behind this site is My Tolkien Books and I can only hope mine is a fraction of a success. Everything is a work in progress so give me some time to flesh this out!

Let’s get into it. My dad brought me to see The Fellowship of the Ring in theaters back in 2001 and I’ve been obsessed (for lack of a better word) ever since. That first viewing was the start of my collecting journey and fast forward 20-ish years and my collection has grown immensely! How many times can I include the words collect/collecting/collection on this site?

Some factoids about me:

• she/her
• Filipino & Italian
• Graphic Designer
• Based in the Northeast US
• My favorite Tolkien character is Old Bilbo
• Also obsessed with musical theater, Avatar: The Last Airbender and fantasy literature

So please sit back, enjoy, wear a smoking jacket and a bib and take on board the genius that Hans Jensen. Good evening.
