Re: Coincidence?

Ah, Tolkien was a genius. You see, my mother thought of this, the world in Tolkien's time thought fantasy was fairies and pixies and trolls and wizards and elves and dwarves and dragons. Then Tolkien twisted it a bit, dragons talk and play at riddles, elves are wise yet merry and tragic, trolls are dimwitted and tall, goblins are of diffrent breeds and are smart yet traitorous, dwarves love beautiful things and not only live underground but strive for gold, and he created something man had never heard of, hobbits. You see he took the normal and changed it a bit, adding his own nature to it as hobbits.
My own writing is a bit like that, my races have drawn apart as diffrent kinds, you have animaux (people with animal features) which are divided into the catans(cat like people), hawkans(bird like people), reptillians (lizard like persons), clevcans (fox people), equina(horse people), and the wan-da-bits (rabbit people). Then you have the delves which are almost like dwarves but they are covered with a fine fur and have beards and fur running down to their nose and wittens which are a bit like hoobits in nature and stature but are catanish in their features with long cat tails, sharp ears, and fur they also live in trees which grow in a round hollow shape. I can draw humans so I wrote about what I first started drawing.

" In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit . . . " That's where it all began.</p>
