Phantasm  by lovethosehobbits 3 Review(s)
AndreaReviewed Chapter: 12 on 4/16/2005
Oh my god, this was breathtaking! It started as a fair dream with Frodo being able to talk to his beloved mother. But Saruman's trick was revealed to Frodo and this experience must have been horrible.

I always thought that Primula was an extraordinary hobbit, like her son and I see, you share my opinion.

What will be Saruman's next step I wonder? But there is still a glimmer of hope: Gandalf to the rescue! I count on him :)

Take your time! This story deserves it!

Author Reply: Oh my God indeed, what a phantasic (hehehehe) review. You are so very kind, and your comments were so gratefully received. It's always a pleasure to see that there are those out there who help boost my ego. I'm still pretty new at this and it's such great fun to hear what reviewers think of my stories.

I had a hard time with the Primula thing. I wanted to continue in the context of Primula being, well, Primula, but thought that it would be more fitting for the story to have it be a deception. It was really too bad because I was truly enjoying the love and comfort that Frodo was feeling. Perhaps there's still a chance that his mother will reappear in the next chapter. The story's about finished. I think possibly one more chapter and then perhaps an epilogue, then I will be concentrating a few other stories that are posted on my livejournal. Hey, if you're interested I could send you the links. One of them is a sick Elijah fic, which is a stretch for me and I'm having a kick writing it. The other is a slash fic, which is also a stretch for me. The next chapter of Phantasm will be a real kick %$# chapter, and I already have it all mapped out in my teeny tiny brain. I hope to have it actually written soon, but can't be pinned down on the exact time. Love to you and thanks again for your glowing review....as always, tree

Wonderful to see another chapter. I've seen slower updates in other places, so don't feel too bad :)

Author Reply: So glad you are enjoying the fic. Thanks so much for your encouraging words about my untimely updates. I think I'm harder on myself than any of you all.

Darn right he's stronger than he looks, Saruman you meanie! You just wait until Gandalf enters the fray.

*glares at Saruman who doesn't know what he's up against*

Author Reply: Saruman will get his, I'll see to it, never fear. One more chapter and maybe an epilogue then it's probably done. Hoping to update Labyrinth and EVBW soon. We'll see. Thanks, as always, for dropping me a note and reviewing. *huggles*
