Lovely Night · Sat Apr 15, 2006 11:17 pm

Oh boy.... excellent again. I am completely hooked. PLEASE let it all work out in your next installments. Can I say how much I like the stuff that is before and after the sex? I mean, the setting up, dialogue and characterisation makes it so much more satisfying.

Great stuff. Couldn't agree more with Krazykataave and Sulriel about your writing. This is building into a series with real depth and feeling. Excellent characterisation. Thank you!

First Night · Sat Apr 15, 2006 10:21 pm

So glad I found your Gamling/Morwen stories. I have gone back to the beginning and am playing catch-up. Really well written, no wasted words and - given my own experience - it seems so hard to write sex with the right balance between emotion and 'what bits went where' ... Nice one. Looking forward to more of your work.

Elanor's Revenge · Tue Jan 25, 2005 6:34 pm

Hoorah - was worried that you girls had got sidetracked by RL or something worse... Lovely to get an update: lots of tension! PLEASE don't let Elanor succumb to Lurien: I really don't think Haldir could forgive that, though love can forgive most things. I've never tried to write a battle scene and I think this is a really good balance of 'technical' description : what-blow-fell-where along with what-it-feels-like. Nice. I trust Elanor will 'feel' Haldir's wound in the next chaper? I think bringing Elrond and company back in to the story now is introducing a good dynamic and I am SO looking forward to the next update! Thanks so much Very Happy smiley face

Trust To Hope, Book Two · Mon Oct 18, 2004 1:44 pm

Oh goody - I feel that Book 2 has got into its stride now, with a new plot development, a new character (Isolde) and a very grown-up quandry for Ani and Eomer to deal with: an heir or not an heir, that is the question.
I liked the way the news was revealed - the shock for Eomer as he was confronted, the fact that you didn't feel the need to repeat it by writing the scene where E told Ani, but focusing instead on her reaction to the news... I am also delighted with A's decision to face it out rather than run away. Excellent stuff, I'm certainly looking forward to seeing this develop over coming weeks. Many thanks. Smile smiley face

Blood Runs True · Sat Aug 07, 2004 4:33 pm

Aahhh.... A very interesting take on a possible outcome of Aragorn's early time in Gondor and I love the characterisations of Faramir and Boromir in particular. Nicely done and thanks.

The Dare · Fri Aug 06, 2004 5:42 pm

Really enjoying this now it's got into its stride. You've created some lovely, 'telling' phrases - like 'And straw men do not scream' and 'The tang of blood and bowel' (both in Chapter 4 I think) which are very strong indeed. I am looking forward to reading more, although I fear her passion for Faramir is doomed!
(Why are there not more romantic Faramir stories? He's one of my faves, but in my opinion, too few writers exploit his possibilities!)
Anyway - congrats and please write more!

The Captain's Last Gift · Wed Aug 04, 2004 4:30 pm

I came across this because I was looking for a Faramir story... and despite the fact that it's not, I stayed with it. I don't really 'do' the pointy eared princeling, but this is really about the courtesan, and your characterisation is so 'rounded' that I'm hooked! Thanks so much, I will definitely watch with interest, not to mention bated breath. (Any chance of Faramir getting a look in too?!) Smile smiley face

The Only Jealousy of Éowyn · Wed Aug 04, 2004 4:18 pm

Aahh... nice one. I agree with my fellow reviewers: too short! Everyone always goes on about Faramir's insecurities, so it's good to see the tables turned here.

Fidelity · Wed Aug 04, 2004 3:59 pm

I really like your insight into a very likely scenario: Faramir's insecurity and potential jealousy. It's something I've wondered about too. Congrats.
