| Is there a story coming soon? Forgive me but are these the preliminary chapters for a story or is it maybe just like an ad for your stories? I've never seen that here before. Author Reply: Sorry--this is not a story as such. I was asked repeatedly to provide a timeline in which to consider how all my stories relate to Tolkien's own timeline and one another. I tried to do this on my author's page, but could not get it posted correctly. So a couple years back I tried this way. Then I was bugged to provide a cast of characters with brief descriptions of who they are for the stories I've written. As many of the characters appear in more than one story (Brendilac Brandybuck appears in a fair number of stories, as does Narcissa Boffin), I thought to do a single repository for this, and attached it to the timeline. It's been here for quite some time, and has been allowed to stand as it was. It has been requested I reorganize current content rather than adding new chapters so this, which is NOT a story in and of itself but which would be of interest to those who wish to keep my stories and characters in context, not keep reappearing on the top page in the future, and I have agreed to that stipulation. As you can see on the first page, I have a LOT of stories I've written! | |

| I like the way you used "Sackins" and "Bagger" to pre-figure their descendants. And "Hedges" is a really good choice for a hobbity last name! Author Reply: Glad you appreciate it. And I suspect in Bree the Sackinses and Baggers managed to survive while in the Shire, further from the source, as it was, they'd all become the Sackvilles and the Bagginses. As for Hedges--that just seemed to follow Tolkien's observation that many Bree Hobbits took herbal names. | |
