Drabbles  by Lindelea 3 Review(s)
Reviewed Chapter: 52 on 2/27/2025
Can you do three drabbles of Remembering Day? One in Rivendell, one during the Quest, and one after the war, but before the Travellers start out for home from Gondor. I want to see the others reactions to this hobbit tradition. Also, will you finish the story of Bucca of the Mariah? I like the stories on the Shire's history.

Author Reply: It's an interesting thought (a series of Remembering Day drabbles). I'll offer the Muse some dark chocolate and see if her nose twitches.

Bucca's story is actually one of the WIPs that is currently progressing rapidly from draft to final form and is actually close to being finished (perhaps ten chapters remaining to deal with). I plan to start posting it again after I publish the final chapter of one of the current WIPs, hopefully in April, around Larner's birthday, as a mathom for her. I'm updating three or four works simultaneously on SoA but don't want to do more than that. I don't want to clutter SoA's home page by posting too many stories at once.

I'm glad to hear you like the "Shire history" stories. One of these days I hope to get around to finishing Marcho and Blanco's (unpublished) story, but I haven't been able to figure out the ending yet, so I can't start publishing it until I do.

Thanks for reading and taking the time to share your thoughts!

It's fitting for Eowyn to welcome a (captured) horse home!
I must admit, before I read your notes, I had not understood the significance of the black horse.

Author Reply: (Sometimes I feel as if I'm cheating regarding the 100-word limit by adding notes, but I always appreciate understanding the context when I'm reading other authors' stories, so I risk it.)

Thanks for reading and pausing to share your thoughts!

He cautiously whuffled her fingers.

‘No matter.’ She stroked his nose. ‘You’re home.


That's lovely. Eowyn's life of healing and compassion will be a long one.
