YOUR Problem(s) With Tolkien's Books - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I would have to agree with Squatter about the incompleteness of Tolkien's work. I would need to consider the same for my own work, as shoulder understand that it will never be complete no matter how hard I work at it.

Tolkien's work gained a sense of immortality because of its incompleteness. Even though Tolkien is long since dead, his stories will live on as though they were new everyday. I can only hope my stories will do the same and not fade as my life disapears in the world of indifference.
