You're generally not supposed to capitalize all of the words in a sentance save in special circumstances, but I think it's fine.
Author's Response: Thank you, Mairi, for the reviews of "Blood Weald." I wrote this for an anonymous contest, so did not have it beta-ed. I forgot to have it edited before I posted it here, and probably won't bother at this point. I always appreciate when readers point out mistakes, though, so thank you for taking the time to comment.

| All in all I enjoyed this, just a few grammatical errors I have to mention. 12 should be twelve, and pick ! or ?. |

Yes, a very merry Gandalf indeed! it was a very good story. I have noticed that the best one are the ones that have a history so to speek, or are entwined with history. I really liked how you brought Earendil into the whole picture, it seemed to conect every thing that was happening. But I still wont be able to sleep tonight!!! Mandos' Corpusle!! |

heeheehee! I have always liked Gandalf, and I agree with Gimli that "this new Gandalf is grumpyer that the old one." so it's nice to see a Gandalf who is humerous, even if he doesn't mean to be. but argg! I won't be able to sleep tonight! I live in a pine woods, and there are trees that are covered with vines. Mostly poison ivy vines, which makes it all the worse. I suppose it is a compliment to your realistic writing, but I wish I wasn't the one to pay it to you. ;p But I cant stop now I have to read the end!!
Author's Response: Eleiel, I am so sorry that I missed your reviews of "Blood Weald." I don't know how it happened, unless my spam filter was being overly aggressive and I was not checking regularly to see if something important was deleted. I usually don't look through reviews of older stories, so unless I get an email saying I have a review, I often don't check. I'm especially sorry since your reviews were so delightful! I actually got the idea for the story from a picture of trees being smothered by vines. The picture was all sunny and green, yet I found it very creepy. I'm sorry I frightened you of your own vine-covered trees! I don't know if you will ever see this, but thank you very much. Pentangle |

Wow. That is really all I can say, your writing captures atention from the first sentence, I wish mine did. I would like to ask why you used the word 'ichor'because in greek mythology ichor was the blood of the gods. I am dreadfuly curious. lol! Eleiel |

"Now was no time to argue with a wizard who might know a way to aviod parental unpleasantness." Me goodness, I love it! I couldn't help but review one last time! You have the perfect quantity of humour, and drama, and suspense, or anything else imagenable in your stories at all the right times. You know when the time is right to be serious, and the time to ease tension with humour to keep up the hear-racing pace. You are the most versatile auther I have read on the Internet. Any genre, and you ace it. You have the perfect quality, Tolkien-born and Tolkien-bred, almost as good as the big man himself. But you have a differing good than Tolkien, so it is hard to say you still lag behind him. I love how you spilt their blood together, and how you explained Legolas in that "ice" cage thing. Superb! Your dialoge is great and believable, your writing style is not unnecessarily long, nor drab. You have the needed sugar of a savvy writer, but you have the spice (and everything nice) of a quick-witted friend. And you HAVE to write about what a certian young Noldo can get herself into. Please?
Your No. 1 fan, Elemmire (Do not forget Menelmacar)
Author's Response: I am sorry I am late to respond to such a loyal reader, but my spam filter has been throwing out e-mails at random and I just found the alert for this reveiw. As always, you are too kind! This was a hard story to write and I probably will not do more suspence fics, but at least I have one to my name! I am so happy you enjoyed it! Pentangle |

I love it to the end! How cruel you are to Legolas, even though I know why! You are terrific! I wish my vocabulary was large enough to grace you properly! Power, brilliance, thought provoking, stunning, and this isn't even the best of your works! "He ran." Elemmire |

"Disbelief was replaced with fury as the moans of the dying were felt throughout the forest."
You haunt me, Pentangle, even as I review on my second indulgment of your story. "Boo!" indeed! How could you fall victim to only second place? It is not horror that is over worked and simple, but truely thought through, and believable. It's not ghosts and goblins, just something alive, something that hungers. I don't know how to tell you how well you have done this! Elemmire
Author's Response: Thank you, Elemmire! I took the 'threat' from real-life, something that actually scares me a little, if I think about it long enough! This is my first attempt at suspense so I'm glad you think it works. Pentangle |
