| Glad he had some peace and you are here to report it! :) Hope you are as well as can be in these increasingly crazy times. Namarie, God bless, Antane :) Author Reply: Author Reply: Covid has made things more difficult, I must admit. I've enjoyed imagining what Frodo's dreams of peace might have been like. Thanks so, Antane. | |

| Hobbits, after all, were creatures of the earth that housed and fed them, with no love for that which is fluid and not answerable to foot or plow. I've never heard the nature of hobbits described better. :) Dear Rosie so in love with Sam, so grateful to 'Master' Frodo, and doing her best to comprehend wider concepts than her life had ever prepared her for. This is such a peaceful and loving scene. Author Reply: I'm so glad you appreciated the description, Shirebound. The idea that Frodo would find images of the Sea comforting would be hard for Rosie to understand, or so I would suspect. But she would appreciate anything that brings Sam's Master peace. Thanks so! | |

| Nice! So, Frodo is able to use his star glass to communicate with his loved ones back in the Shire. I like that! =) And in his case, he was able to help Sam assist a family in desperate need. Author Reply: Sorry to be so delayed responding. As I age it takes increasingly longer to get things done, or so it seems. I suspect Frodo wasn't granted much knowledge about life in the Shire, but that on occasion he was granted leave to intervene in a case of emergency. I bet Frodo missed his old life at times. Thanks so! | |

| “The star’s moved,” Oslo called out, pointing to the place it now appeared to shine, high to the west of their current place. “It’s atop the Hill now,” Frodo agreed. “Now it will lead us home.” What a lovely story to read on this overcast morning. Thank you for celebrating Frodo (and the rest) in such a sweet way. Perhaps we'll peek in on little Starbright again sometime...? :) Author Reply: Maybe we might see more of Starbright in the future. I never know any more. Heh! | |

| Beautiful story! Frodoandsam for President! We need a pro-life one like this. Namarie, God bless, Antane :) Author Reply: You already know that I am able to see both sides to that issue. But this was a family looking forward to the birth of this child, who needed shelter when all began to unravel too soon. Frodo Baggins would not be allowed, I'd think, to focus too much on the life he'd left behind; but at times his need to see into the Shire would be indulged, when the Powers recognized he had both the overwhelming urge and there was a need for his intervention to see things put right. I doubt, by the way, that either Frodo or Sam would wish the burdens of our nation's presidency. Dealing with the needs of their own small land must have seemed more than enough responsibility, there where it mostly took just good sense and an excellent ability to bring it out in others to set things into the proper pattern. Thanks so, Antane. It is always so good to hear from you! | |

| Oh, such a lovely birthday present! I had tears in my eyes, reading it through. I love the New Year's customs, the first-footer, the bonfire, the (literal) hot pockets. The whispers in the night, wakening various people and setting them instantly to practical action (and no arguing against it on their part at all, it seems), and Sam instantly knowing and trusting his Master's voice. And the guiding starlight, bringing the travellers to a safe resting place, and guiding the rescuers there and back again - I'm sure the Lady was pleased to know her gift was so well-used. “The Powers has their ways,” Sam said with a finality that forbade further discussion. They certainly do! I love the idea of Frodo in a far land, still fondly watching over those he loves. Hugs, Lin Author Reply: I'd considered expanding this some, with a dreamed conversation between Frodo and Sam, but felt it was better thus. Am so glad that this was so well received. God bless, and may we both do more writing this year! Can't wait until I'm allowed to go south once more. Am beginning to suffer from cabin fever! | |

| Imagine—starlight in such a snowstorm! Imagine it I can, thanks to you. What a magical story! This is a lovely way to begin our hopeful new year, and I wish you the very best, my friend.

| Hello my dear Larner :) I must say that it was the most cruel of your stories I ever read :) For a moment I was hoping for Livwen and Frodo and then bah! The last of his ladies, his last chance for happy love. But of course I should have expected it becouse it was your storyline and I know that your storylines are not cheap and naively sentimental and such :) Of course it was genius story but to see him robbed of so much in live is cruel, even the afterlife seems mot enough for what he lost. Warm Greetings to you - my fav ff author and to all your friends here :) I hope to hear smt from you soon :) Author Reply: Oh, but I missed this, Tallis! I've not been able to send out emails for ever so long, what with having to rely solely on my telephone company's server to get access to my email. It's truly a pain! And with my work schedule now I've not been able to connect to the techs that can advise me what to change in my email client so as to get my mail going as well as coming in. No, no simple love story for Frodo Baggins, although he did not allow his undesired celibacy to poison his heart as so many seem to do. But I do believe his love for Livwen was rewarded, even if it was not physically consummated. Thanks so for your patience. Yes, I am here. I am now able to again properly receive my email sorted, and I hope so to be able soon to get mail sent as well as received. I hate computer glitches! It took so long to find where the computer hid my email client after the last surge I received, back in July. Now, to solve the other problem! Aaargh! | |
