They've influenced me greatly!! I just became a Tolkien addict at the beginning of August, as I started reading LOTR for the first time. I started The Hobbit yesterday. I already knew I wanted to be a writer, but since reading his books, that desire has grown so much! I want to be able to write like he does. His description is wonderful! He can describe things so elaboratly, in such detail, without boring you to death as some writers do. I sincerly hope that as I writer I will be able to describe things like he does! Also, when I start thinking that I won't be able to, sometimes I remind myself that 'Even the smallest person can change the course of the future.'
