yes. you should get it published. it is a wonderful tale about a grand adventure.

HP and Narnia are good in their own ways. JRR Tolkien is the best.
i'm in HS and i read alot, as do my friends.yes. you should get it published. it is a wonderful tale about a grand adventure.
Narnia isn't all Lewis has published. Tolkien is FAR from the best. You need to get out and read more authors who aren't famous. I'm in HS and only like one out of every 30 kids reads for enjoyment.

For the love of god, spell his name correctly; Shakespeare. Shakespeare is really overrated, just like Tolkien, just like King, like a lot of Weis/Hickman stuff. Some of the best writers I know of only write adaptions of things, movies, games, shows, etc. It's not just the ability to come up with a compelling story, it's also in the ability to tell the story. To me, that is the fundamental part of being a writer, conveying the tale to your audience in such a manner that it is enjoyable and understandable. That is something Tolkien did not do, nor did he even try. He didn't write LotR to be published, he wrote it for the hell of it, and it happened to get published. The Hobbit is a much better story, as far as I'm concerned.
