Ah, Perry's awake now, and perhaps a wee bit jealous as well? And it's plain just how it is that Ami becomes so distracted from what she's supposed to be doing. Ferumbras isn't going to get the easy betrothal he's been looking forward to--that's plain (even if whe didn't know it to begin with).

Author Reply: Perry is more resigned than anything else. He always knew it was just a dream and he just had that confirmed. Ami lives very much in the moment - easy to be distracted, especially when the present offers up such mysteries! Ferumbras certainly has his work cut out for him. ;)

Dear Gamgeefest,

I like this story very much, especially Ami who is indeed very Tookish but unfortunately very easily distracted ;-)

I agree with Dreamflower that things get more and more tangled up. And so I have no idea of what will happen next. But I'm sure Perry the mysterious shepherd is involved.

I'm looking forward to reading more!



Author Reply: Hello Andrea! I'm glad you're enjoying the story so far. :)

Ami does appear to have a chronic case of short-attention span, even for a Took. :D

I can't seem to keep tangles out of my stories - they're so much fun to write and figure out!

Thanks for reading!

More "uh-oh".

I am as mystified by Perry as Ami was... he seems very oddly isolated for a hobbit of the Shire. And of course, Ami's at the center of the Talk again.

I have a feeling things are going to get even more tangled up.

(BTW-- re-reading "Distractions" lately! That's such a fun story!)

Author Reply: Things do seem to get tangled up in my stories. :D

Perry does appear to live off the map, so to speak. Not every hobbit is going to live in a town, but the ones to isolate themselves aren't going to come to the fairs or other gatherings either. Perry is a mystery. And yes, Ami is the center of Talk again. She just can't seem to help herself.

(I had a lot of fun writing Distractions. Glad you're enjoying it the second time through!)
