| Finally!! I was wondering if you'd ever post this here! Are you sure you can't fix Estella's age? I think it could be done without rewriting too much. Only a few minor things would need slight adjusting. If you're still willing to try, e-mail me (kitzel@telus.net). I'll look over it and come up with suggestions. Author Reply: Thanks, and you ought to have my email in your box already. | |

| This is one of my favorite stories, and one of the first ones I read that you had written. Are you going to change anything in it as you post? I remember reading parts of this in conjuntion with A Small and Passing Thing, and realizing that your style had smoothed out quite a bit in the recent stories compared to this. But it is a lovely story, filled with your trademark hobbit wit and devotion, and introducting quite a few of the themes that run through your work. I'm happy to see it appearing here. Author Reply: Yes, there will be changes as each chapter is posted, probably nothing major. I've pulled out the beta notes and dusted them off and am going over the story to make sure they all got in, then sending the results to my editor for polishing. Once she gets it back to me, I make the changes (or not--but usually, yes) as she suggests. It is interesting, going back through the old stories (like "Duty"), to see how I've changed. In some ways I like the choppier style in "Duty", for it fits that piece. In other ways, I can see why my editor has made some of the suggestions she has. She takes a lot of the credit for my style smoothing out, but I'm learning. Thanks! Author Reply: I mean, she ought to get a lot of the credit... sheesh, I make her sound like a huge egotist, whereas she's so "behind-the-scenes" she won't even let me post her name. | |
