| Budgie, what have you done to our poor Fellowship! This is a wonderful story, but I'm afraid the entire town will burn to cinders before we get to the end. :D I tore through the last 20 chapters in less than a day, just couldn't stop reading! And now poor Frodo has been taken again. I was clapping and cheering when he started kicking that foul creature and managed to get himself dropped. Now, hopefully he'll be out of harm's way when Gandalf and the creature go at it! What a wonderful, caring and compassionate family you have created to help Frodo. If only more people were like Marly, Peter, Rich and Brion, this world would be a much better place. I’m so glad Merry managed to surreptitiously leave them with enough money to repay their kindness. And leave it to Sam to remember the owner of the cellar where the hobbits hid and had their little feast! I await the next chapters with great anticipation! The only thing I ask is that you not burn down Marly & Peter’s house. That would be too tragic to bear! Oh, and one small thing, for some reason when you italicize a word (or make it bold), the remainder of your chapter is italicized (or bold) as well. If your HTML coding is correct, it might be a bug in SOA’s programming. Just thought you'd like to know. <3 Sandy Author Reply: Hi Iris. Thank you for the kind review. You read 20 chapters in a day? Wow, that is flattering. Thanks for the tip on the SOA bug - I went back and fought and fought with that chapter to get it to behave. I care very much that the story be right and appreciate you letting me know. It looks like SOA has correctd that now. Thanks so much and I hope you enjoy the finale. | |

| Hurry, Hurry, Hurry. I need more!! I have read and Loved many of your stories. Humour, action, tenderness and great characterization - its all in every story. And I love this site - sooo much better than ff.net. So pleeease, huury with the next chapter - I am not sure I will be abble to breath until Frodo is back with the Fellowship. BTW, how about a happy little interlude story with lots of great fellowship interaction and no evel cliffies. Just a short one - it would be good for my heart. Author Reply: Hi Faervarya. Thank you so much for letting me know how much you are enjoying this story. And I agree with what you said about this site - it is wonderful. I've been thinking about what you said for a happy little interlude story (you are so right), and after "Some Nameless Place" is complete, be on the lookout for "Leavetaking." It is just a one-chapter humorous apology to all the people I riled with my cliffhangers. I'll give some more thought to a longer interlude story "with great Fellowship interaction and no evil cliffies." (Maybe just a few evil cliffies? Just one or two?) | |

| OK... Miss Cliffhanger... I have just about had enough of you stringing us along like this! :p I swear, you are going to be the death of me! No, really, really exciting. The action was well orchestrated and I was left knowing exactly what everyone was doing. It was very well done. Well, except that bit with Legolas and his bow... I think even for an elf that would be darned near impossible at a run! Still, I have swallowed far less plausible things in fanfic. Encore, encore! Ariel Author Reply: Hi Ariel! I hope this story won't be the death of you - I couldn't stand it! And think what a loss to the fanfiction world! (And the rest of the world, too, of course, but I am selfish.) I owe my thanks to Marigold for keeping all the action straight - this is the most involved, complicated story I've ever written. She makes me sit down and draw little diagrams of where everyone is and what they are doing. Thank God for unyielding beta-readers ... even sobbing and begging don't move her to let me sneak past with (many) errors... Okay, I agree with you on the part about Legolas stringing his bow at a run ... that was a tiny bit of humor injected there. I bow-hunted with a 32-lb Bearcat for many years and have tried that once or twice, never successfully. But I figured if anyone could do it, it would be Legolas. Thanks so much for the review. | |
