All That Remained  by Allee 14 Review(s)

Oh, dear. It does seem a permanent solution--too permanent and not really a solution at all, of course. But it is a seductive one.

Author Reply: Yes, a seductive solution, but as you say, not really a solution at all. Poor Gilraen is desperate, I fear. Thank you for your comments, Larner!

Poor Gilraen, this is heartrending, but all too true to life.Very well written.

Author Reply: Thanks, Linda. I'm glad you find it true to life. I was concerned that because it varies from the typical fan fic portrayal of Gilraen that people would find it inauthentic. I pleased that you think otherwise.

This is very moving,poor Aragorn and poor Gilraen.
Grief does indeed make people add oddly.It is brave to draw on your own experiences,but in so doing,makes your work richer and maybe you will help others.

Author Reply: Thanks, Linda! I'm flattered that you think I was brave. I'll just say this: this story wasn't an easy one to write. In fact, I started it, got nowhere with it, and set it aside for *months*. When I finally came back to it, I discovered that there where certain parts that I was avoiding because they were just too emotionally difficult for me to write. Well, I finally got through it (obviously), and now that it's done, I have to admit that it's been somewhat therapeutic. Writing is wonderful that way, isn't it?

I believe this is my first experience with resentful Celebrian. Alas for her.

Author Reply: Resentful Celebrian? Or did you mean a resentful Gilraen? Gilraen is indeed a mess right now. And I'm afraid things are only going to get uglier.
