Smoking in books
I work in a casino and passed by a LOTR slot machine. On it was a picture of Aragon lighting up. Then I remembered how popular pipes were among Gandalf and the hobbits.

In this day and age, I wonder how many writers or readers pay attention to smoking in books. I quit 9 1/2 years ago so I don't think too much about it while writing anymore.

I'm curious as to whether or not writers consciously add or leave smoking out of their books.

I'm also curious if readers pay attention to it in the books they read.
