Ahh, thank you! I'm glad my little fic left such an impression and that you enjoyed it so much - I really had fun playing around with the symbolism in that one, but for the most part I was so thrilled by your letter that the writing was so much fun! And never fear, I'll definitely keep writing Tolkien fic. I love this fandom dearly, and something drastic would have to happen to jolt me out of it. :)
