Tolkien and everyday life

[Kaiserin]

Tolkien's books have helped me to appreciate literature and fantasy, and challenged me to be bolder with my writing and ideas. They've got a lot of meaningful principles but it's hard for me to say if they have shaped my life (probably because i read them at a young age) - but they've influenced me, that's for sure.

I must thank the movies for prompting me to take the books up again and immerse myself irretrievably in Middle Earth.

Aye, I too.
