I really enjoyed reading this story. You gave Sam a fine last adventure that seemed very suitable for him. I liked the glimpses of the lives of the elves, too.

Author Reply: Thank you, Lianna. Sam had quite the adventure, and the elves won't forget it any time soon. :)

I am so glad this site lets us leave more than one review per chapter. I need a correction. When I commented on Elrond's reaction in "Everything You Needed to Know About Hobbits", The chapter I was thinking of hapCpens the night BEFORE the Fellowship leaves on the quest, not after. I could almost hear Elrond singing the popular song, " Closing Time"! Luck and Blessings to You!

Author Reply: LOL! I'm sure Elrond was sighing a big, sign of relief when the hobbits left and took the upheaval with them! ;D

I'm so sorry to hear that you are leaving. Wishing you all the best and hoping your Muses will return one day.

Author Reply: Thank you, dear! I will miss you all here terribly. Perhaps my Muses will return one day but for now, I think they're enjoying that green valley with Sam and the others. ;)

I think I've only commented once on one of your stories, but I've read many of them (perhaps all?) and have loved the world you created! Thank you for so many lovely hours in the Shire - you've created a very believable universe and made the characters come alive. I feel privileged to have the opportunity to enjoy your gift.

Author Reply: Hello, Lyana! I'm so glad you've enjoyed my stories. Thank you for your kind words.

I'm very sorry you don't feel you can continue writing fanfiction, as I've loved your stories for years. But, you've got to do what fills you with joy, whatever that is. Please know that if you ever feel like coming back to the LOTR universe with your writing, you'll have a loyal fanbase waiting. And I hope you'll stick around so we hear from you now and then. Thank you so much for all your years of work, your insights and great ideas. They, and you, are much appreciated.

Author Reply: Thank you, FantasyFan! It's a decision I've been struggling with for the last three or four years. It's been harder and harder to keep up my enthusiasm for writing fan fic and it's time to finally move on. I'm sad to be leaving the fandom. It really has been an amazing experience, and you and others like you are a big reason why. I'll still be on LJ and I peek in at SF-Fandom every now and then. Hope to see you around!

NOOOOO...we've lost so many wonderful LOTRers that it makes me want to cry. You will be so very missed. I wouldn't mind perusing your unfinished fics. I love to work my own ideas along side someone elses. Oh, I am so depressed right now....

Author Reply: The fandom has been waning over the last several years, but I'm sure The Hobbit movies will bring in a whole new generation of fan fic writers. You're on LJ, right? I've decided not to post any of the unfinished fics, at least not for public viewing, but if you want to IM me, we can work something out.

What a pity!

I will miss you and your stories. I enjoyed reading them a great deal, especially the funny ones like "Moon over Tookland".

Thank you very much for a wonderful time and I wish you all the best!



Author Reply: Thank you! I've enjoyed your reviews and insights. Thanks for reading! If you're on LJ, look me up, same username as here. :D

Aw.....Linda. I will miss you and your wonderful tales. I haven't been the best of reviewers to anyone lately but I have been following along and this has been a fitting tribute to our heros. Keep in touch and, above all have fun wherever your muses take you. Thank you for all that your stories have meant to me and will continue to fill difficult hours.

Author Reply: Thank you, Liz. I will miss the fandom terribly, but it is time to move on. Take care of you and drop by at LJ every once in awhile to let us know what's going on. ((hugs))

AntaneReviewed Chapter: 999999 on 11/13/2012
What a bombshell! "You can't leave." Ah, farewell, my dear. Whither thou goest now?

Namarie, God bless, Antane :) *more hugs*

Author Reply: I'm very sorry to leave, but it's been a struggle for a few years now to continue to write fan fic. I'll be concentrating on some original fics that I've been meaning to write. If you're on LJ, you're welcome to friend me there. Same username as here. :D ((hugs))

LarnerReviewed Chapter: 999999 on 11/13/2012
I wept to read the final chapter, and in part because at this time I'm in a fragile state anyway. But to read that you are leaving the writing fandom--what can I say? I am in such grief!

Good luck, Linda, and God bless you. May life remain fulfilling, and may your future writing bring you to that green valley!

Author Reply: (((hugs))) Sorry to cause you grief, dear Larner. But I'll still see you on LJ. :)

Thank you so much!
