Thanks for leaving me the link! Having read ch 1, I'd say you're off to a good start. You're how old? (Don't answer that!) Nice writing! My one quibble is the difficulty reading without line breaks. Do you have technical problems, or is it your preference? Author Reply: Ergh, I did not even notice the lack of line breaks. I'd wager that it is a consequence of technical difficulties, for my PC is quite temperamental. And I'm 17 *blinks at introduction* Ee-yipes, I think that ought to be edited, considering I'm on the cusp of the age of eighteen... I commenced this story when I was 16. | |

This certainly looks promising! You're right, there's not nearly enough stories about poor old Fatty, so I'm glad to see someone take an interest in him. Your writing style is excellent, with few (and I'm not even sure there were any) grammatical errors. My only issue with it was using the term "buddies"; I don't know if that would work in Middle-earth, but it's not a huge deal. Certainly not enough to stop me from reading, and I hope you do continue this. It would be very interesting to read about what was going on in the Shire while Frodo and Co. were on the Quest. Great work! Author Reply: Thank you for your feedback! It is reviews like this one that really boost my self-esteem. By the way, sorry for replying so late. As in... several months after you reviewed? *blushes, then laughs* I am unsure that the "reply" option was even around when I first posted! | |
