Claudia, I haven't read anyone's comments for Parts I and II since I wanted to read this "fresh", so I may be way off in my guesses. Frodo is Melanie, Faramir is Ashley, and Pippin is Scarlet? Makes me wonder who you'll pick for Rhett (two likely candidates come to mind).

This is utter genius, and beautifully written. I can well see you publishing your own novel in the future. Please don't ever doubt your writing again -- I'm just in awe of your talent.

*Now* I'm going to go read the other comments!

:)
