My Review

My book is called J.R.R Tolkien by Doris Lynch publication by Franklin Watts in 2003 New York. My overall review of this book is that it is informative and gives out good information you wouldn't think a book would have. At first I thought it was only going to give me the accomplishments ,but instead it gave me all the information I needed to do this project the correct way. If I would have the chance to read another one of his books I would say yes because it does not get you bored like any other biographies it tells you all the information in an interesting way. So I would give this book give this book 5 out of 5 stars.

My Struggles

Hi, it's me again, now I'm going to tell you my struggles I hope you enjoy it. One of my main obstacles is to deal the deaths of my parents to which gave me the responsibility for my younger siblings. Another obstacle of mine is to actually finish my books I mean you need a lot of will to keep writing a book for seventeen years. Another challenge of mine was to marry Edith since I was Catholic and her family was Protestant and the family didn't approve. Eventually I convinced her parents that I could marry her.

My other struggle was to survive one of the most bloodiest battles in history in World War 1. Even though I did survive I got Trench Fever right after the battle which enabled me to not fight anymore. One of my hardest struggles is to finally admit that I wouldn't be able to finish the first book that I began write The Silmarillion. Since I knew I was dying I asked my son Christopher if he could finish it for me he said yes, and he did finish several years after I passed away. It couldn't have been a happier ending for me. That's it for now for this blog bye.

Spiecial Events in my life

Hi there now this post is going to be about the special events in my life, hope you guys enjoy it. Special events in my life that occurred was that I was fighting in World War I to fight for the British then I got lucky I got the Trench Fever which enabled me to stop fighting and helped me survive the war. Another event that was important to me was the deaths of my parents. Both of my parent's death was caused by an illness each that discouraged me but both made me stronger and better prepared for the world. September 21,1937 was another important date to me that is when The Hobbit was my first book that was ever published. Due to the success of The Hobbit fans demanded I make a sequel which was Lord of the Rings.

Another important event in my life was when I joined the group The Inklings the people in the group were C.S Lewis,Charles Williams,were some of the people in the group. This group gave me ideas and inspired me to write more books. Another important event is when I got the Trench Fever in WWI and that is when I began writing my notes when I spent months recovering in the hospital. The last and very important event to me is when I got married on March 22,1916 to Edith. That's it for this post bye.

Chracter Traits

Hey it's me again on this post I'm going to describe myself hope you don't get bored. Perfectionist is one of my traits because when I wrote my books I wanted everything to be perfect I read my books dozens of times to rewrite things to make my book better because to me, my books have to be perfect or nothing. The publisher often got angry with me because it took to long for me to write my books.

Hard-working is one of my traits because it took me more 17 years to finish Lord of the Rings and it took longer than my lifetime to finish The Silmarillion. Also when I was a child since my family was in financial need I began working in factories just to put some food on the table.

Bold is also one of my traits because I invented an imaginary world that was so unique and imaginative that nobody thought of it besides me.

Perseverance is another of my traits because when teachers said I would never get a scholarship to a good university but I ignored them and I got a scholarship to Oxford one of the best universities in the world. They also said that my ideas were crazy I did not listen to them I kept writing my books.

Unorganized is also one of my traits because when I was writing my books I would sometimes put my notes on the back of student's graded papers and sometimes the student's would get mad. And whenever I would get my ideas for a book i would write it down on a piece of paper as fast as I could. Well, that's some of my many traits I could think of, bye.

The Effects

Hey it's me again, now this post is going to be about the effects I had on the world.When people say that authors have no affect on the world I would disagree because I've made a huge affect on the world and here are just some of my examples. Millions of readers have enjoyed my books and inspired many authors to write books. I was even a Oxford professor and helped shape hundreds of students' education with my great teachings skill. I enlisted myself in the army for World War 1 to help the British win the war. I also helped my children to become great people.

I also invented many languages that I use in my books the languages to create. I also diverged my creativity and setting no boundaries of my imagination. Because of this my books has been made into movies and those movies have been really successful they've won Oscares and have made billions of dollares . If I were alive today I would have been very proud that I still affect people today even though I died decades ago. But for some reason I'm writing this thing called a "blog" and yes, I am very proud.

Hello, I am J.R.R Tolkien and writing this thing called a blog but I might as well write something I haven't done in a long time so I'm just going to write this "blog" whatever that is. I was born on January 3, 1892 in South Africa from my mother Mabel and my father Arthur. A age three my father moved us to South Africa because my father wanted a better salary and better security. When I became ill and my brother was born and my mother had enough of South Africa and moved back to England and left without my father. Meanwhile we where there my mum changed our religion from Protestant to Catholic. Then a little more after a year later my father got horribly sick and I had to rush to South Africa ,but it was to late he was already dead. That caused a great deal of sadness in the family so we moved back to England. Since we needed financial help we asked my father's family to see if they could give us some aid but they said no just because our mum changed our religion. So we were on our mum for the next seven years.




For those years I amazed at the different languages how each inspired the language of English.Then I got fascinated by languages and began studying them out of all of the languages my favorite language was Welsh they said their language came from the heavens.I began studying languages I wasn't even supposed to learn I was even inventing my own languages. Then my mum got concerned about me not studying hard enough in school to earn a scholarship. So to prove to her that I wasn't going to invent languages anymore I threw away my notes of my new language, to this day I still regret throwing away those notes because they were perfect to me.After that my mum died due to diabetes then we were orphans and I was responsible for the welfare of my siblings. Everything seemed to fall apart until I met our foster parent he was a priest that our mother left us to in her will. We then moved to a priest's home there I met my future wife Edith. We began having a relationship when my foster parent decided that I was too young to have a relationship because my grades began to tumble. He then told me to never see her again until I was old enough for college. I agreed and I broke up with her then I began studying vigorously so I could get my scholarship. After high school I successfully earned earned a scholarship to go to Oxford after a few years there I sent Edith a letter so I could meet her again when we met we deiced to get married. As we were making plans I enlisted myself to the British Army to fight in WWI so we got married a week before I got shipped of to war. And that is my when I considered myself a man so this is the end of my childhood post hoped you enjoyed it, bye.
