I love Tolkien because of his sheer genius. To be able to create a complete alternate world, in geography, cultures, languages, races, relationships...it totally overwhelms me.
And, it has become an old friend for me as well.
If I write any more, which I truly could, I would shut down this board because of overload!!! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
I am an Elven Queen...or will become one in my story! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] And I hail from Lorien. I love my ME life!!!
