I was 15 when I first read The #silmarillion
I've since re-read it many times.
One of my all-time favourite books!

Back in the early 90's when I used to handwrite music (for guitar) on manuscript paper, I used to use 3 different colours of ink.
Black for notes, red for dynamics and green for finger positions

Sometimes I think I actually prefer musical scores to recordings

Like a fool I didn't listen to my own advice…
Still, despite the warning -- everything seems to be OK (for now!)
