Lewis vs. Tolkien

In the Narnia series, C.S. Lewis prefered to use the word "toward", as in "he went toward the wolf" (not an actual quote, just an example).

In The Hobbit, J.R.R. Tolkien used "towards" far more often than "toward".

I find the distinction between "toward" and "towards" a difficult one to make. I'll admit that I prefer "towards". Which do YOU prefer?
