... the reader is probably wondering that if Tolkien did indeed fashion two of his heroic characters from Catholic prophecies, what about the evil protagonists? Were any of them inspired by these little-known revelations concerning future times? The answer is yes, but to discover the links between the myth and the prophecies, we must venture not only into the realm of unnerving revelations, but also into the murky world of secret sects, dark plots, occult signs, bloody revolutions and conspiracy theories ~ we must probe deep into the burning Eye of Sauron.
Life is a rich literature. We are only writing the history of our time.
The written word is greatest sacred documentation.
Tolkien did admit that, 'As a guide, I had only my own feelings for what is appealing or moving.' In other words ~ he wrote about what interested him ~ and despite his protestation of including anything allegorical into his tale, Catholic history and mystic prophecy obviously received its fair share of attention ...

Most people I meet are stupid. Now, nobody likes to be labeled as stupid because they don__ want to know the truth about themselves, that they__e more useful dead than alive. The vast majority of those that meet me for the first time don__ believe that I__e worked as a College Professor, or that I make a living as a writer. In fact, many have stopped talking to me because they believe I make a living doing something illegal, something criminal. It__ easier for them to believe that I__ just a criminal, than to accept that I__ one of the most famous bestselling writers in the entire planet. The ones that reach the next level, will ask me if I belong to any secret organization, if I speak to demons or if I channel the dead, or even if I steal information from the internet and other authors. Now, what they can__ see, is that the more they talk such things, the more they show me their real nature. They are very, really very, stupid. They can__ see an elephant in front of their nose; they can__ see an intelligent human being in front of their face; they are indeed very stupid and that__ a fact, not an assumption.

If rewriting equals rereading, we must logically conclude that writing is reading. If this is indeed the case, how could we possibly write under a ban on reading? The only way left is mouth-to-mouth _ poets and storytellers recite their pieces and before we can commit them to memory, everything vanishes into thin air.
If you think there is no time to write now, there would never be.
Cliches are the viruses that infect your writing with diseases.
If you are a singer, you must sing. If you are a dancer, you must dance. If you are a writer, you must write. Don__ suffocate your heart.
Every book begins and ends with other people- the readers who suggest the book to us and encourage us to read it, the talented author who crafted each word, the fascinating individuals we meet inside the pages- and the readers we discuss and share the book with when we finish.
If certain aspect needs to be inconsistent, it must better be consistently inconsistent throughout the story.
Don__ interrupt when your characters take a flight of their own.
