J.R.R.'s little joke!
I'm sure we all agree the true authors of LotR are Bilbo, Frodo and Samwise. Throughout the story they (the Hobbits) discuss how the story they are writing will end. eg. "they all lived happily, ever after until the end of their days" and various other forms.
Then tolkien ends it with Sam saying "Well, I'm back!" Pure Genius!
