| Merry’s parents are just so great - they are helping the boys so much just by being who they are. Author Reply: They sort of jumped off the page at me when I first started writing them. The writing process and surprises that occur along the way never fails to astonish me, even now. (Just yesterday, a north-Took named Bolham the Red jumped out of my imagination and onto the keyboard with his booming voice and energetic personality and aggressive hospitality. To think he was mostly just a name to me for the past few years... and all of a sudden, he came alive. In a manner of speaking.) But then, your characters are so real, I might venture to guess you've had some similar experiences. Thanks so much for reading and commenting! | |

| oooo! Interesting! Poor Pip, it is hard to know what to do at times like that. "'But now, I know how to fight.'" It's good Merry has the tools/knowledge he needs now. Why are they so interested in those Long Cleeve lasses? ;-) Author Reply: Hmmmm. And Long Cleeve really not on the beaten track between the Hall and the Smials, or the Hall and Bag End, or even Bag End and the Smials. Quite out of the way, as a matter of fact, very inconvenient. It makes one wonder... | |

| Yes, they ought to have told Merry's parents. Author Reply: Yes, they ought. Poor lads. Glad it came out well. | |

| I am glad that Merry knows how to fight for to give him to Gondor so soon after losing Frodo to keep him from death would be too much for us all. Author Reply: It really would! Especially when I stop to consider that Merry has always been my favourite hobbit. (Don't know why I find it so hard to write about him!) | |
