| Oh, Lin, I loved this!!! I put it off a bit as I didn't want to face the usual "gloomy gus" Frodo. What a wonderful surprise!!! You have a happy, sly, loving Frodo - much more the way I always pictured him being for most of his first year home. MEWD!!! Author Reply: O good, we're still thinking along the same lines. I liked giving him a peaceful year in the Shire, marred only by anniversaries. I'm sure he savoured peace, and watching the Shire grow green again, and life resume its pattern. That's the way I wrote him in "A Short and Passing Thing", anyhow, which sort of spun off this chapter and the next two. Author Reply: oops, meant "Small and Passing Thing" but I was trying not to type "Long and Passing Thing" which is something of a joke between EF and myself. | |

| a Favourite Nephew who works hard to reassure his favourite Aunt and Uncle! Lovely Picture with the flowers. Author Reply: Thank you! I love that picture--I can see it in my mind's eye, an echo of when Frodo was a little lad and brought his auntie fistfuls of half-wilted wildflowers. | |

| And someone is already smitten, after all. Good to see Frodo already seeing to it that Pippin is prepared for the day when it is he as Thain, and I suspect he already is starting to realize he won't remain all that long. Yes, Frodo the Slender, slated to grow moreso that way before he finds himself again. Author Reply: Yes, Frodo is looking ahead to the future, although I don't think at this point he completely realises--I think that happened after the October anniversary, more. | |
