Fearless and Full of Joy  by Levade 6 Review(s)

I loved this chapter. A lot of people fail miserably when trying to write stories like this. I would love to see more.

The reader can tell the depth of affection the writer holds for little Glorfindel and maybe all children, by extension. The length of this piece is suited to the sketch of the father – son relationship. The writer stopped it at just the right place to prevent an overdose of sweetness. The non-canon details did not bother me; they added depth, and there are many gaps and silences to fill on Glorfindel, and the writer has a clear, strong vision obviously. That makes for good story telling. But beware, - one can’t make an interesting story out of love and sweetness only. I would welcome a challenge-studded plot with the main characters experiencing a variety of emotions. More tales to come? Best regards – Chathol-linn

Hey, Levade – Your prose would be even more powerful without qualifiers in a couple of places. “Hair that almost exactly matched” versus “Hair that matched” and “a bit of a non-stop whirlwind” versus “a non-stop whirlwind.” Please excuse this nit! Good work – C-L


Author Reply: Chathol-linn, first...my HUGE apologies. I've thought on what you said here since I received it, replied many times in my mind, and never got myself over here to actually DO it.

Your suggestions really made me think. This was originally a one-shot deal, just written to mostly get it out of my head, kick the bunny away and be done. But now you've made me think.

I like that!

Nits are wonderful. I love nits. Thank you so much for offering your time and nits on this. *g*

Lil Gofi...*squeals and fails horribly at trying not to melt from the inside out*

Such a lovely story, Levade. I could feel Gorfindel's joy of life and the deep love between father and son. Loved the way you wrote Surion affection for the boy making him believe that he was flying.
Thank you for sharing this story.

This is a delightful, entertaining, and touching bit of insight into wee Glorfindel. A nice reminder that even Balrog-slayers were children once. Thanks for sharing it with us.
