Title:The Adventures of Tom and Barard
Category: slash.
Rating: NC-17 for sexual content. Contains violence, some references to non-consensual sex, and lots of hurt/comfort. I make no money from these stories, and give grateful thanks to JRR Tolkien for providing us with such a richly imagined world to play in.

Chapter 11 has been posted, and can be found here

And maybe someone more technically minded than I am can tell me why my text to take you behind the cut only says "Golden" when I wrote "Golden Mushroom Awards"?

ETA: thank you, Ghyste. That's done the trick. :)

You are awesome!

Congratulations once again :)

As for your lj-cut, try replacing the speech marks.

Yay! :D Congratulations!

Congratulations, Elenya! Well done. :)

Squeeeeee! How nice of your mum to vote you so often. :D

My lj-cuts do that too, the little buggers. Yes, change the "'s.

How nice of your mum to vote you so often. :D

That's what mum's are for... :D And all with no computer. Amazing!

Congratulations, love! *hugs*

CONGRATULATIONS! I love your fic to death, so I'm pleased to see it properly rewarded! I was especially excited to see ATAB get so many nods before it's even completely finished.

I hope this inspires you to write more fic. LOTS more fic. :-)

(((((hugs)))))

I was especially excited to see ATAB get so many nods before it's even completely finished.

And I was especially pleased because it's a story about OCs. :)

Wow! Congratulations! Great tales, and awards well-deserved. Your beautiful writing has enriched our hobbit fandom, and made for stories that linger in my heart. Thank you!

Congratulations on your well deserved awards!

Congratulations! Read the speech and had so much fun with you lot, partying in my perfect black dress. **Downs champagne, toasts you and the boys - all of them - repeatedly, dances and trips in pure delight**

Congrats! All well deserved! Your writing is among the best out there and I adore your stories and characters. You bring such richness to your writing, that it stays with you a long time. I still think of "All That I Had" even after all these months, and ATAB is looking to be just as memorable.

And speaking of ATAB...

Another wonderful chapter. Poor Barard has been damaged both in body and mind, and even his spirit. It will take some time before he is able to fully believe that he is free and with Tom again. Hope nothing too bad has happened to Faros.

And congratulations to you for Strawberry Truffle being Runner Up in Best Abuse of Culinary Arts. :)

Poor Barard, indeed. :(

So... would you say GF got her just desserts? * grins *

(Actually, those strawberry truffles sound yum!)

Congrads again, Elenya! 'Loved the awards ceremony!

Congratulations!!! :)

And thank you for the new chapter! I was so relieved that they did rescue Barad but the joy only lasted for a bit - poor Barad, and poor Tom. *hugs them carefully*

Please post more soon!

Please post more soon!

Chapter 12 is needing quite a bit of tweaking, but it should get off to final beta in the next few days. Poor Barard and Tom indeed. They appreciate the careful hugs. :)

Oh many, many congrats on your many, many wins, honorable mentions, and nominations!!!!

I am so happy for you and know how well deserved they all are. That's just wonderful and I am also pleased to see such lovely work recognized, in spite of the relatively low profile you keep on LJ. That's got to be the "proof of the pudding," so to speak, hehe, and a real testament to both the quality of the work and the enjoyment you bring to all of us.

(((hugs))) *throws confetti over the Atlantic*

And another new chapter too! Yeah. :)

Thank you, Celandine. :)

Congratulations and thank you for writing all this wonderful stories. Besides the stories I had a lot of fun reading your speech. Thanks for that too ;)

And for the new chapter: I'm so glad about Barard's rescue. *hugs*

Glad you enjoyed the speech. :) Maybe I should put it up on my website.

I'm so glad about Barard's rescue. *hugs*

Yes, it's about time poor Barard was out of that foul place

Congratulations!! This is wonderful.

And thank you for this exciting chapter. At last! But ouch! To think I felt Tom had it hard...
Their reunion was very touching.

Thank you, Nimue. :)

To think I felt Tom had it hard...

Poor Barard's been out of sight for far too long; he's had a very hard time. :(

Elenya, this is Narya (from the old KD days.) I'm on Maeglian's friends list, and she said you'd be updating with news on how she is doing. I figured you'd probably be doing it in a flocked post, so was hoping you'd add me so I can find out how she is after the sugery.

Hi Narya :) Good to see you.

I'll email, so let me have your email addy, and I'll send news along to you.
