A world without Tolkien would be very grey. In my episode of Talking Shop, from MasterClass Original Series, I talk about my love for Tolkien, and what I learned from him about creative writing, facing the impossible and creating fantasy worlds.

One of the happiest moments of being a parent has been reading The Hobbit to my eldest when she was eight.
I need to get her to read the Lord of the Rings once she gets Harry Potter out of her system
@calmconsidering @neilhimself I was in third grade when my father read the full ring trilogy aloud to me. Just reread for the n+1th time at 57 years old. Still amazing.
