Rediscovered Realms is catching you up on some of the coolest fantasy news that just won’t fit into our regular weekly edition. Welcome to the September issue of The Phantasy Snitch! (Keep your eyes peeled for 2-3 big announcements.)
Rediscovered Realms’ denizens . . . er, citizens can now enjoy a curated lite dose of worthy Fantasy-related news, products, and rumours from the RPG, fantasy book, movie, D&D, LOTR, mythology, board game, art & archaeology genres (and you now have extra time to immerse yourself within all our other beefier newsletters!)

I LOVE to play around with technology, and personally embrace tech advancements, tempering them with what I consider responsible use.
This newsletter has from the start been a blending of old school and new - designed to be fun AND encourage adult imagination/play AND encourage individual creators to Create.
When technology tools can responsibly provide Fun and Encouragement, it equals Value to my readers and I’m gonna do it.
Responsible(Fun + Encouragement) = VALUE
That’s why you’ll see occasional use of naturally-sourced cage-free grass-fed sustainable A.I. images enfolded within our pages of Human-crafted pieces.
I have and always will continue to support fellow quality creators of all sorts and toolsets. Anyone who has read my 80+ newsletters over the past couple years will know the truth of that statement.
So, doubling-down on new technological developments, I’m announcing the following:
👉 A Weekly Audio Rediscovered Realms Theme Song! 🎶
I’ll be posting a different one with different genres (rock, folk, celtic, metal, etc.) and lyrics in every new edition of Rediscovered Realms going forward.
I’m also plotting out a contest for you all to choose your favorite one by the end of the year (more to come).
Without further ado, here’s our first one, called, “Rediscovered Realms Are Here”!!!
(You can even listen while scrolling through the news. Hope you enjoy! Lyrics1)
I know, I know. You’re as worried about this as much as I am, however, there is <some> hope as the insider states: “The original is so culturally significant, Warner Bros know they have to get it totally right”. We’ll see, Warner Brothers, we’ll see . . .
And lastly, one more huge announcement for Rediscovered Realms. I’ve been working hard behind the scenes for the past few weeks gathering 500+ of the coolest fantasy products I’ve had/have/wished-I-had into a curated Amazon2 Shop named . . . “Rediscovered Realms”!
It’s still a work in progress (have lots of other items I’m researching & adding) - but my hope is that this resource keeps growing and becomes something that inspires fellow adults to (re-)engage with Play, Imagination and Discovery.
Think of it when you’re wanting to find that next great fantasy read, movie, game, t-shirt, or other merch.
(It can also serve as a great gift-guide for any fantasy lovers in your life, whether you buy through this shop or elsewhere!)
This is designed to be a living shop that will keep adjusting with products that come and go, but for now, I’ve organized the 500+ items into 15 different “lists” like:
“Latest Lord of the Rings Loot”, “Fantasy Novel Favorites”, “Fantasy Games”, and more.
Upcoming lists will include “Fantasy Gifts for under $20” as well as lists for fantasy creators/authors/artists
As I make time, I’ll also add personal reviews & opinions to the individual items contained within the lists
I want this curated storefront to be useful and contain only quality products, so would love your feedback on any fantasy items you’ve had experience with that you think I should add (or remove).
Thank you for supporting Rediscovered Realms as we together strive to Keep the Adventure Going Strong!
