Oh, I can SO see this letter being written! And I suspect the friendship gift is as welcome as the sentiments so well expressed! Author Reply: I love imagining Gloin receiving this letter and feeling fatherly pride and joy. | |

While I was here, I gave this one another read. I just love this letter and the thought behind it. I can just imagine how very proud Gloin must have been when he read it and I can see him sharing it with his close friends. Author Reply: Thank you, my friend! We're so lucky to be able to share our delight with these characters. Dear Gloin beaming away, and bragging to his cousins and friends... love it. | |

What a lovely letter that would be to receive. Author Reply: Thank you. It's fun to imagine Pippin writing it and Gloin receiving it. | |

Wow, Pippin knows how to write a formal letter! I'm impressed. But he wouldn't be Pippin if he hadn't added an informal postscript :-) I'm sure they will enjoy the Longbottom Leaf! Author Reply: Thank you. I tried to show a balance between the serious nature of this letter and Pip's natural Tookish exuberance. :) | |

I love this letter, formal as one would expect from the future Thain but also full of respect and admiration for his friend and the warmest is the P.S. - very Pippin like at the end. Going to be taking my usual Lenten fast from hobbity reading so look forward to catching up after Easter! Namarie, God bless, Antane :) Author Reply: Thank you for reading, Antane. I can imagine Gimli blustering with equal parts embarrassment and pleasure if he found out about this letter. | |

"Truants"!! love it! thanks for the smile. (Lin, who saw this on LJ yesterday but couldn't resist re-reading this morning) Author Reply: Thank you, Lin! I love when Gimli calls Merry and Pippin "woolly-footed and wool-pated truants" in the book. :) | |
