Always a Silver Lining  by Tathar 1 Review(s)
esamenReviewed Chapter: 1 on 7/7/2004
Dear Tathat,

I was thrilled to find your new chapter to Silver Lining at ff.net! I usually only scan SoA for fanfic. So I was happy, happy, happy to find your new work! I just love your vision of hobbits . . . and I confess that I absolutely love a strong, heroic Frodo who gets hurt and needs some care and comfort!

I came a little late to fanfic writing and reading, so I am still hungrily looking for good writers and good reads everywhere. I have written only one thing myself, here at SoA. I'm a Christian and I don't like to run into slash, so I pretty much stick to SoA for my author updates and explorations. I went to your story on ff.net on a referral from Obeliamedusa.

Thanks for continuing to write. I just love to read your work. Please update at Stories of Arda also, and then I can keep up with you. You are a special writer-- your stories are inspiring and soothing at the same time -- and that is something that I need every day. You have a gift . . . keep on using it, because you are doing a lot of good with it! And keep that wonderful Frodo battling all his health problems !!!! ;)

Love, and may you always be inspired to write,

esamen

Author Reply: Wow, thank you so much! I'm so glad you're enjoying it all. :) (And who doesn't love a strong, heroic Frodo who gets hurt and needs care and comfort?)

Yes, SoA is really a fantastic place, and I rarely check ff.net anymore. Obeliamedusa told me about you (while we were discussing Faramond Rushlight), and I'm really thrilled that you came to check out my work. I go back and edit previous chapters frequently, which is what I'm doing with "Silver Lining" here at SoA (that's why it's not up-to-date yet). The demands of highschool make it hard for me to update as often as I'd like, but every time I get a review like yours it makes me work all the harder to speed up. So thank you so very, very much!

And rest assured, Frodo will *always* be battling all his health problems as long as I've got a say in it! ;)

Blessings,
Tathar

P. S. Obeliamedusa told me how much you like the character Faramond... so hopefully you'll be pleased to know that I've begun plotting a story centering on him! I'm planning to start it as soon as I wrap up "Silver Lining" (which will probably be in another five chapters or so), and you'll be the first to know about it. :) Thanks again!
