J.R.R. Tolkien - The world of fantasy fiction might be a great deal different today if it weren't for the legendary J.R.R. Tolkien, author of The Lord of the Rings series. Here are 3 tips from the "Master of Middle Earth." - Pictured: Black and white portrait photograph of J.R.R. Tolkien smoking from his pipe. - #1 Vanity is Useless. Tolkien Wrote his books to please himself and answer the writer inside him. If you can entertain yourself, at least you know one person that enjoyed the hell out of your book. #2 Just Keep Writing. Keep writing, even through adversity. It took the man seven years to write The Hobbit. He balanced a demanding day job, illness, and worry for his son who was away in the Royal Navy. #3 Turn Poetry into Prose. When Tolkien could not express his thoughts in the prose he wished for, he wrote much of it in verse. Authors as diverse as Charlotte Brontë and Langston Hughes started in poetry before moving to longer mediums. Next time you get stuck, you might try Tolkien's trick of writing your scene as a poem first. - Try This: A Writing Prompt - Write about a time when you were entrusted with a secret. - Pictured Closeup of a Travel Cut Refillable Leather Folio with Spiral A5 Dot Notebook and a Closeup of a Classic Cut Refillable Leather Journal
