Oh, bwahahahahaha! I love these, Gwynnyd! But this one is the crème de la crème -- nothing can possibly be worse than slipping into movie-verse! Oh, Gwynnyd! I just can't stop laughing... - Barbara Author Reply: *snork* I am so glad! It seemed to be such a perfect image of how I feel towards the end of the writing process. Thanks! | |

Oh, excellent ending! Savoring the moment and then moving on -- well done! Thanks so much for braving this quest. May you be rewarded with many Good Reviews. And plot bunnies. Blessings, Mum Author Reply: And thank you for the good review! I have lots of plot bunnies! I enjoy being a beta reader for others as much as - sometimes a lot more than - I enjoy writing. | |

Ah, the sense of relief is well done in this section! Still, "my betas show me places where the text needs to be scoured" -- there is more to come, and your readers are glad you're so determined. | |

This one had me rolling with laughter! As a fellow Tolkienista (as compared to Ringer), I can relate to your chagrin at slipping into movie!verse. Thanks for this humorous touch -- a great break from the angst! Author Reply: This was the first image I had and I was originally only going to write this one drabble. But once I had the concept it all fit so well. There are a lot of my things that would stay unfinished if not for that last bit of support from a beta reader. (They know who they are! and what stories I'm talking about.) | |

Your image of the betas being self-sacrificing, supportive Sam is wonderful! | |

"Though it pains me, some plot is trimmed. I know that story lurks elsewhere." Great comparison to the splintering of the Fellowship -- each group to do its own part in the overall Story. Another well done drabble! Author Reply: (blush) Thank you! | |

Betas as companions, providing support -- another great image, as is the balrog. I'm enjoying this quest. Author Reply: I'm so glad. This was a lot of fun to write! | |

Gwynnyd, what a unique idea! Your comparisons of writer to Ringbearer are so vivid: "Bright detours into research lure me," and "I trek onward, shivering and wounded." Well done! Author Reply: Thank you. Beta readers are a special breed and finding good ones that suit you is not often easy. I really appreciate mine! | |
