Oh, Frodo, that nearly brought me to tears! I wrote a story about this as well, but not nearly as good as that!
Keep it up, mellon nin!
God bless, Ellie

Author Reply: It is my wish to deeply move my readers. I have always thought good literature reaches deep down into the reader's heart and mind and stirs something. Your review was very encouraging. ANd I'm sure your story is wonderful! You are such a good author. Namarie, mellon nin!
God Bless,
Frodo Baggins

A great addition to the story, my dear! Looking forward to more! Love the title of the series also.

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Author Reply: Hannon le! Looking forward to writing more...when I get the chance! I like the title too...I thought that the Ring was forged and so it would be appropriate for the Ringbearer to be forged. Also, the Bible says we are refined like silver, meaning we go through hard times to shape our character. Frodo had a hard life, forging him for the great task he was appointed to do...:) Namarie, mellon nin!
God Bless you,
Frodo Baggins

Oh, this got me crying! Poor little Frodo! I like your portrayal of "Uncle Sara and Aunt Esme," and i always enjoy seeing how different authors handle this traumatic event. Hmmm...glad I've got a while to think about it. Poor little dear, he does need a mother figure. And I can sympathise with the overwhelming "Oh, I am so sorry, darling. If there's anything I can do..." It doesn't help. I can't wait to see more of this!
God bless,
Galadriel

Author Reply: Thank you, Queen Galadriel. But due to an interesting little lapse of brain waves and what not, this wasn't supposed to go here!! Can you imagine?! I am beginining to believe that I am cracked. :) The next chapter is going to jump a lot of years (and I mean alot) to the time when Frodo goes to live at Bag End. Yeah, I know. But I am planning on writing a completely seperate story to cover the time he was orphaned. I forgot how to count to three...First part: Frodo living with Bilbo, second part: Frodo alone at Bag End, Third part: His journal of the Quest. And somehow I thought I had to include the earlier years of his life. Sorry, it's almost like I've written a whole fanfic here. :) Namarie, mellon nin!
God BLess,

Well, now, this is a good way to start off a day. I feel so sorry for poor lil' Frodo, but I'm sure he's had enough of people saying how they knew his parents and such. To lose parents at such a young age can do somethin' to a child, but at least Frodo knows he was three certain 'uncles' and 'aunt' who love him very much.

Author Reply: Hannon le! I am sorry for any confusion, but the next chapter is going to jump alot of years, and then the story will slow way down. Yes, losing parents at such a young age would do something to a child, but especially a child as observant as Frodo. God Bless,
Frodo Baggins

Awww, how sweet to see Baby Frodo and his parents! They love him so much, don't they?
God bless, mellon nin,
Ellie

Author Reply: Yes, they did adore their son...or at least I imagine it would be so. But hold on to your hat...there is lots of angst in the future chapters! But don't worry, I will try and balance it out with some fluff and TLC! :) Hannon le for reviewing! Namarie, mell min!
God Bless,
Frodo Baggins

Awwww! *grin* Yes, a proud father...and mother! :) That's an excellent way to begin this piece! Can't wait for more!
God bless,
Galadriel

Author Reply: Yes, but the next chapter....you'll see. Congratulations! YOu are the first reviewer!! Yea! But when my family gets back, the postings won't be as frequent... *sniff* :( Oh well. But I can't wait to write more either! I'm already planning chapter two. Namarie, mellon nin! Ever yours, Frodo Baggins
