I've been rewatching Lord of the Rings, and so I've also been rediscovering the incredible lore Tolkein created as part of his writing on Middle-Earth.
I find the idea of whole worlds, cultures and languages being created by authors completely fascinating. It's so easy to get involved in a new world like that - I almost wish that I had discovered Lord of the Rings before Star Trek, because I spent so much time absorbing the world of the United Federation of Planets, and I could have been memorising all the kings of Gondor instead.
Oh well, it's not too late!
