Woohoo! I loved the Waiting for Frodo comics, showed them to people all the time, and yes, I always cheered for Shane McEwan when I saw his name. I was sad when WFF ended, as I grew to love the characters, and while I have read and follow your other comics and enjoy them, they arent the same, I cant connect to a female writer that loves chocolate like I can a LOTR nut.
So I have to ask, of course, are we going to see Sam and Rosie and the gang? Is that Rosie with a new haircut, you, or a new character completely?

Woot! A new ‘waiting for’ series! I wonder if Irma will make an appearance? *does a little dance*

Love the mouth and eyebrow in frame 3! That’s how I feel about the wait too! Perfect start!

Just finished reading Wainting For Frodo (only four and a half years after the last strip…). They’re great.
Now I’m excited with this new series.
Good luck and thanks for the fish!

–What are we doing here?
–Waiting.
–For whom? or what?
–Bilbo.
–You sure this is the place?
–He said he’d come.
–Seems like we’ve been here for days.
–He said he’d come. What, you doubt me?
–No, no.

Fantastic!
I’m already a fan of your “Will Write for Chocolate” strip, and now you’ve got me craving for another one…
Keep up the good work!

WHOOOHOO!
I was hoping I could get back in the line. I hope they saved my spot.

I never thought LOTR could be made into a movie, so I’m really excited to see how they do the Hobbit. Can’t wait to see smaug and the dwarves. At last “Bilbo Lives”.

Wow!!
This is awesome. I mean, the whole thing. I read the “Waiting for Frodo” comics only over the past two days. A shame I wasn’t warned about it when by the time they were being made!
But I’ll go along with this one. Bet it!
Thanks since now, Debbie, for I’m sure my wait will be funnier. ^^
(By the way, I’m from the “TocaSP” group, in Brazil, which just made contact with you for a permission to translate the comic ^^ thank you again)

Yesterday I basically read “Waiting for Frodo” in its entirety. Epic.
Also, am I the only person who thinks WFF would make a great movie?

[...] Yeah, I admit, the title is a pretty lame play on Figwit, but the famous web comic Waiting For Frodo has always been great. It had to end, of course, yet hope remains in its newly launched spinoff: Waiting for Bilbo. [...]

Great! I read waiting for frodo after it ended, and I was so glad to see waiting for bilbo!

As well as being a huge fan of Will Write for Chocolate, I LOVED Waiting for Frodo. So, naturally, I really want to read this one. But you really need to post them quicker, because I’ve checked Waiting for Bilbo daily for a few months, Will Write for Chocolate for days, and Waiting for Frodo for weeks. So PLEASE post more SOON!
