Hey! Personally, I am never compared to Tolkien...King (Stephen) sometimes, but...heehee. If I WERE to be compared to an author as famous as Tolkien, and as talented, I would be very moved. That may be, of course, because I love Tolkien's writing style, but one can always dream!

Anyway, most writers are just jealous of Tolkien's popularity. It's called the "Best-Seller" list, and if Tolkien is a "best-seller" around now, he should be PUT ON THE LIST! That's my opinion anyway!
