Thanks, Helen aka Mark, for a very useful distinction (I speak of that between 'personal' and 'epic'). I had not thought of it that way before. It definitely informs my appreciation of Tolkien, as well as my understanding of my own story.

Your work is your own, of course, Helen, but I have a feeling that the Fairy element in Fallohide/Tookish blood is probably more like Goldberry and less like Galadriel. IMHO. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
