| At least no one was there to complain about conspicuous consumption of wood and oil! Nice they didn't get disturbed while sleeping. And loved the glimpse of those distant ones on the Pass over Caradhras. Nice to see this put into context of the greater story going on outside the Shire. Author Reply: Yes, the weather is a blessing in disguise! ...too bad even for the ruffians to be out and about. Whew. (But then, no hobbits are able to take advantage of their absence, because of that same weather.) I am going to try to keep working context clues in, as it helps me to keep the timeline straight in my head. Just so long as I can do it without it being too contrived... Glad to hear from you! | |

| Cute chapter. Like the children, I'm looking forward to Scar's reappearance. Glad to see you writing again! ~Eruherdiriel Author Reply: Scar certainly livens things up. Thank you! | |

| Read this but wasn't able to review till now. This was a nice moment of peace for them, even if it came with a snowstorm. Seeing how they coped made it clearer how hard it was for the hobbits living under "The Rules" that the men had imposed. Glad to see some updates to your stories. Hope life is giving you a moment to write. Trust me, I understand more than ever at this point. :) Also, liked the reference to the Fellowship and their escape from the snows on the mountain. Author Reply: I know how that goes. I often read fanfic on my phone, and trying to type in a review from there is a painful process. I am trying to spend an hour a day in writing. Sometimes it feels as if I can't spare even that, but this is something I've decided to do for me. It helps. Seems like so little, but it can add up. I've already been able to finish several half-done chapters that were languishing on my hard drive forever. Or so it seemed to me. It's funny how life can get busy, isn't it, just when you think things are settling into a regular schedule of sorts... Thanks for taking the time to leave a good word. | |

| What an appropriate chapter. We have had so much snow that it's now up past my windows. I'm getting tired of snow and more snow on top of bitter cold weather. Wish I had a fireplace like Hilly. Author Reply: Oh, I really feel for the people who are being slammed by winter storms this week. We had a fireplace in our previous house, and it was really nice to have a bright, snapping fire when a storm was howling outside. We didn't worry as much about the power going out, knowing we could have the fireplace to heat us if need be. Our new house doesn't have a wood stove or fireplace, sad to say. Maybe someday we'll put one in, but it's not high on the list of priorities. Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to comment! | |
