RE: J. R. R. Tolkien – the man who gave us another world
I love bios of interesting people throughout history. It’s so inspiring when someone has a lasting impact, as Tolkein has. The Hobbit was a key reason I fell in love with both reading and writing. Thanks again for your informative post!
Indeed and I think writers are really underrated when it comes to having an impact in history. We all think of people like Tesla or Einstein or JFK, but how many lives does a writer touch?
Same here...I've always been a big fan of fantasy and fiction and it wouldn't be that way if I wasn't raised on Tolkien and other greats!

True! Probably everyone would agree on Shakespeare’s impact and influence. But there are so many more.
