Are You Writing Serious Fantasy?

[Eol]

Mentioning the shire made me think of a small little cottage with a lit hearth, warm food and family. Though I suppose that was the aim of the professor himself...

I would love to see people develop government beyond just coping out with the King. Of course this comes with the understanding that government is not evil and it does affect our lives one hundred percent! Even though in most of Tolkien's books were never really fully see the economics and political strife between households, that can be filled with other's thoughts.

It would be an interesting challenege for someone to develope society and culture with TOlkien's intention in mind, beyond what had been formally written. Personally I would find that very intreguing...too bad that will not be see in the RPGs where a great deal of the fanfiction is created.
