I strongly think that LOTR had a great effect upon my writing style. I also think that it gave me an internal sense of nobility and justice, or at least, strengthened my resolution.

I know that it changed the way I dressed in Jr. High, and it drew me closer to those that shared the same interest in hobbits and JRRT's writings in general. It added to my sense of whimsey. I spent a lot of time chuckling with family over Pippin's antics.

We used to read the Hobbt and then LOTR aloud to my sister when she was small. She then went on to read Shakespeare at an early age, then studied Shakespeare in London where she became someone that other students selected to read/perform with.
