Ah........ Sinead couldn't help it, she was just young and sometimes the young don't think.... Which is why she needs an older elf to take care of her. Thanks for such a lovely review. It kicked butt.

The Ties That Bind Us · Thu Apr 21, 2005 1:20 pm

Dear Shana,

Over five hundred hits and not a single review. That's rather annoying isn't it. And since I know that feeling myself, I thought I'd leave a few words.

I loved your introduction - very humourous. That, more than anything showed your personal voice.

And to the story itself. I'm afraid I only read the first chapter and not because I felt you couldn't write. On the contrary, I think you can write very well. I stopped reading because I personally couldn't imagine an elf raping someone.

Some things I would like to see: slow down a little. Show us how your character is feeling, don't tell us i.e. not 'she got nervous' but rather, 'the palms of her hand were sweaty and she wiped them on the legs of her jeans; she tried to speak but her voice failed and she was forced to swallow before she tried again.'

And do, do keep writing. You have a lot of promise.

Thanks Samarra. It's nice to see someone come out of lurkdom. Thanks also to the others who have reviewed. I appreciate each and every one. Yes, the muse is up and running again. Bar an assignment I have to complete by the end of next week, I have nothing on (out of the usual - job, house, husband and children) and hope to finish this story very soon. For those who aren't on the automatic notification list, I usually update on Sundays. I may also update on Wednesdays if the muse continues to shine upon me as Elbereth upon her beloved elves.

Actually, I've been approached my a lot of people lately to finish this story. I have always planned to come back with it and now I finally have the time (have just completed two other stories I had on the go.)

I'm still here, don't give up on me yet.

And remember... if you read it please review

Well this is strange. I've heard so much about this story in the last week that I thought I'd stop by. And what do I see... hardly any reviews at all. Such is life I guess. The author is the last to know about her own genius.

I was very impressed with this story, with the characterisation, the pacing and conversation. Perfect.

Thank you for pulling me out of a very bad day.

What a lovely story. I cannot believe it has been hidden away here for so long. You have captured the perfect essence of fading and their manner of speech was fitting. Well done.

well, it's taken a long time to find this little treasure. Glad I found it.

Csele,

Elben sind wie Menschen - nur besser. Freue mich dass du liest. Werde mich bemühen weiter zu schreiben - leider habe ich ziemlich ein Zeitdruck...

Und Thranduil soll schöner sein. ... Mmmm - hast du 'in the King's Garden' von JackieS gelesen?

I've deleted the last chapter. It was a bit of a weak excuse. I'm sorry - although I know where this story is going, I'm having problems with characters cooperating. The real problem is that I am working on too many stories at the one time. I hope you understand. I will finish this as soon as I have time.
