| What a delight to be idly browsing and come across this delightful story! Not only do the characters and their conversations ring true, but just reading it brought back so much joy. Our beloved hobbits certainly didn't enjoy their adventures as much as we did, did they? Thank you for remembering! | |

| This is so cute and funny! And it makes a good point about writing a story! Although now I want to hear Pippin's terrible romantic poetry and Sam's stories about Bill! | |

| Oh, dear--we do have some who want more stuff in there! Heh! And love all the references I myself recall reading, from "The Care and Feeding of Hobbits" to Indigo Blue's wonderful story and so on! Heh! Ah, yes--all of the Yule tales we've all written.... Poor Frodo! Author Reply: I'm sure Pippin will be pleased with the fact that so many fanauthors agree with him! | |

| Very funny! New Beta-readers who hadn't BEEN there might be a good idea! Though some of those omissions sound pretty interesting... planning to write them? Author Reply: Perhaps we would, if other authors hadn't beaten us to it! Right now we're putting together a list of all of the fics we referenced, with links, so if you're interested, you can check them out in a little bit! ~Celeritas | |

| //people would be forced to conclude we couldn’t--I couldn’t--take three steps without falling into some fresh and deadly peril// A pretty accurate summary of fanfiction, I would say. ;-) Thank you, this made me chuckle. Author Reply: And that is precisely why I have trouble writing gapfillers... Thanks for reading! ~Celeritas Author Reply: [from Dreamflower] And your comment made ME chuckle! *grin* | |

| While I recognise quite a few of these I am a little curious as to the authors of some of them, so a listing of titles and authors would be helpfull, as one of your other reviewers has mentioned. I found my way to S.O.A and Findils epic E.I 1 and 2 from a rec on f.f.net! Huggs, Lynda Author Reply: We're working on it right now! ~Celeritas Author Reply: [from Dreamflower] We are going to give it a shot! | |

| So much to giggle about here--I don't know which amused me more, what the characters might think about all we fanfic writers have put them through, or the idea that too many betas spoil the sauce. I suppose too this is a good reminder to look at each fanfic as though no other fanfics have ever been written! *humming 'One hundred apple pies on the sill, one hundred apple pies....take one down, gobble it down, ninety-nine apple pies on the sill....'* Author Reply: I think that even one beta was too many for Frodo, lol! ~Celeritas Author Reply: [from Dreamflower] OK, now I've got an ear worm... | |

| *chortle* Well, clearly you've either been around forever or read all the right fics! I wonder if you'd consider adding a chapter/author's note to identify them for newbies? Author Reply: It's the former for Dreamflower, who did most of the research and brainstorming for this. What little I know, I've learned through osmosis. ~Celeritas Author Reply: [from Dreamflower] I've been around a while. And yes! | |

| *giggles* I'm honored to be the source of one of the tales Pippin deems important to be included in the Red Book! I recognize so many of these. Poor Frodo... at least he has loyal readers willing to fill in the gaps. :) Author Reply: I don't know how loyal he'd think they are, if they're willing to fill them in with all sorts of things that embarrass him! *giggle* Author Reply: [from Dreamflower] I am sure that there would have been even more of yours if Pippin had dared to bring them up. But remembering how cross Frodo got over Legolas and Gimli and their bickering, he probably thought it better not to mention that. | |
