LOL. So cute. Shame on Frodo for telling Pip to plug Bombour's nose. ; )

Author Reply: Shame Frodo, Shame! Glad you're laughing.

lol, Pippin got a story for his trouble and a softer place to sleep! It is definately a good thing that Bombur wasn't mean spirited! lol, it is hard to get anyone to stop snoring but especially a huge dwarf........hehe. Well I'm looking forward to more! Thank you!

lol! How on Middle-Earth will three young hobbits try to stop a dwarf from snoring? I guess any expertise they may gain tonight could be used later on teh quest but at what cost? lol, it is funny just to imagine what the next chapter might produce! I'm anxiously awaiting what may happen next, thank you!

LOL! I wonder what our young hobbits are going to do about that snoring. Thanks for some sweet and much-needed humor.

lol, that is wonderful! You created such a wonderful picture! I hope to see more very soon, I can't wait to find out what other problems will come to Bilbo! Like sleeping arrangements of Bifur and Bofur! Or food! Or, well I'm sure there are many more adventures to look forward to, lol. I can't wait! Thank you!

Author Reply: Food, haha. That was a most delightful experience.

ROTFL! I love it. This is so funny and cute. Bilbo would make the other hobbits sleep on the floor. ; )

Author Reply: Wouldn't Bilbo though?

Pip is right, this shall be a "most magnificent visit"...if not harrowing for poor Bilbo!

Author Reply: Lol...poor Bilbo. *grins evily*

Oh, cute! It's so hard to find good LOTR humor. : ) I did enjoy Bombur getting stuck in the door, but I also liked Pip's musings on running out of food and getting in trouble with Sam over the squashed flowers.

Hi, Miriel! I couldn't find an e-mail address for you anywhere, so I hope you don't mind me responding in this way.

First of all, please don't fret about people reading your chapters without reviewing. In my experience, only a tiny percentage of people who read a story leave comments about it. I have no idea why, but that's just the way it is for most of us.

I do have some suggestions...

You tend to write fairly short, choppy sentences. A smoother, longer style might be easier on the reader. Also, how old is Pippin? Why didn't Bilbo ask Bombur any questions about how he's been, and ask for news about all the other dwarves? Bilbo doesn't seem the least bit curious about anything.

This is a delightful beginning, however! I hope Bag End's beds can handle dwarves!

Author Reply: After the story is completed, I now look back and say "thank you!!" for your wonderful constructive critisism on the chapter. It really helped me with the story.
