if you write something not LotR-related you don't have to worry about Christopher Tolkien coming after you either :p

My thoughts exactly. But right now, I'm having far too much fun with Tolkien. ;)

That was so emotional! I am so glad to see Erebwen getting her story told. Tht was a beautiful passage

Thank you for Gimli's words as well. (((((Gimli)))))

Now tell me. Did you scare yourself with the orcs or has something in your reality become scary? Email me if you can, ok?

*blushes* Aw, thanks sweetie. I did spend quite alot of time on her this morning. I'm getting there, slowly but surely. ;)

LOL I scared myself with the Orcs and the LotR soundtracks! I get too into the character when I write, don't I? :p

In reality, all is quiet and peaceful here on my beautiful mountain. *sigh*

Cass, dear, I'm very impressed. The thing about your writing is that it actually takes us step by step through the event that is transpiring. I love the details. It shapes the reader's vision and you did a wonderful job since (I don't have much imagination) I was able to envision the battle.

Really!!?? Oh! That is what I was striving for...to make the reader see it all unfold in their minds. Gosh, are you really impressed? Thank you! *beams and blushes* It is such a traumatic story...where my mind got it, I dunno. Its almost like I read the few words Tolkien wrote about her and I already knew the rest of the story.

Yes, really. :) I love that you pay attention to details. It makes it more authenticly Tolkien too.

I had forgotten who Mithrellas was but now I remember.
