Another random fact about me: I LOVE the Lord of the Rings. Aragorn is my fave.
He's one of my desk/office buddies. Lately, he's been hanging out on the shelf next to my friends from The Princess Bride, but he makes little appearances on the desk now and then. Isn't he a cutie? I LOVE Tolkien's worlds. I read The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings trilogy prior to seeing any films, unless you count the creepy Hobbit cartoon from the 70's. In fact, my senior literary thesis class was called "Tolkien and Friends." One of the two professors team-teaching (they both resembled hobbits, by the way) had actually MET Tolkien years previous. It was an incredible class. I learned so much about the interpretation of literature and film. So who's your favorite Tolkien character? Do you have one? Why is that one your fave? I love Aragorn - both book and movie version, which are quite different - for his honor and strength of character. He's a wonderful fictional hero. And my lil' Aragorn inspires me to write men of valor in my tales of romance! Get your own Funko Pop Aragorn for your desk/shelves HERE!

Aragorn is certainly one of my favorites. Faramir, in the books more than the movie, was a favorite. If I had to pick only one favorite, it would be Sam, for the same reasons that Andrew is my favorite of Christ's apostles. He isn't as flamboyant as his brother Peter, but he's the one who introduced Peter to Christ. He's also the one who brought the boy with the small lunch that Christ used to feed the five thousand. I picture Sam, like Andrew, in the background, quietly doing small things that have great impact.
