Hello. You seem to have stumbled upon my author's page. If it is because you like what I write, I thank you and here is my therapist's phone number, because if you think I'm talented you are in serious need of some psycological help.
So, yeah. Basically, I’m Jordan, just a small-town girl that is trying to make the most of her life and writes to keep herself sane. My favorite character in the whole series is Luna Lovegood.
I'm a pretty nice person, and the only reason I won't like you is if you're mean to someone who doesn't deserve your disrespect. However, I'm also a very boring person. But, if you want to learn more, visit my LiveJournal or add me on IM.
Cheers,
Jordan

Gina! I realized I hadn't read one of your stories in a while, so I came over here right away!
What a funny story, dear. I loved when Mrs. W was yelling.
Author's Response: Hi Jordan! Thanks for reading this, I wrote it a while ago for the One Shot Challenge. It was fun, I love the twins. I wrote the another One Shot Challenge with them too. I\'m glad you liked it, thanks for leaving such a nice review!! ~Gina :)
Turning the Corner by Grace has Victory

Date: 08/30/06 Title: Chapter 2: A Happy Announcement
I really enjoyed this story so far. I was just thinking, "I wonder how Ginny and Michael hook up" when I came across your story. Nice job!
Author's Response: What a wonderful coincidence - I\'m so glad I was able to answer your question. Actually you don\'t meet Ginny until chapter 17; we have to torture Michael a little first. Thank you for taking the trouble to review.
Regards, GhV
Date: 11/07/06 Title: Chapter 15: Fizzing Whizbees
You know, I've been following this story for quite some time, and I really like the plot. It's... different, but in a good way. Can't wait until the next chapter!
Author's Response: Dear Mugglegurl,
I\'m glad you liked something different - many people only like the familiar type of story. The story is finished, so I think chapters will move quickly through the queue.
Thanks for taking the time to review,
GhV
Nifflers, Otters and Shrew by tickled_pink
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: What happens when the man Hermione feels far too embarrassed to ever see again (due to events entirely out of her control ... well, almost ... ) turns up as the new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher? The War is raging, the N.E.W.T.s are approaching, and the only question circling through Hermione's head (much to her annoyance) is whether or not five years older is too old.
It seems to be out of her control once again; avoiding Oliver Heaney for her entire seventh year seems not only difficult, but well near impossible ...
Excerpt from Chapter Eight
Oliver was a nervous wreck all through his seventh year class.
It took all of his will-power not to glance Hermione’s way every three seconds. He risked it only a handful of times, making sure never to do so when her face was looking in even remotely his direction.
As is usual with one who is out of control of a course of events one began, Oliver began to panic. Second-guessing himself was not something Oliver was prone to, and yet here he was, asking himself those terrifying questions. Did she get the note? Has she read it yet? What if it was all a bad idea? What if it all went horribly wrong?
What if she took the note straight to Minerva and told her everything?
Don't worry, this story hasn't been abandoned, just moving in a different direction than I originally planned!
Date: 09/16/07 Title: Chapter 9: In Which The Weather Turns Cold And Things Heat Up
You know? I really do love Oliver. He's really cute.
Anyways, I loved the way you showed Hermione's past. You gave her all these mixed feelings I haven't seen other authors do, but I think it makes more sense your way.
Keep writing -- it's a splendid story!
Date: 10/29/06 Title: Chapter 6: In Which Tonks Sees Something Potentially Dangerous
Lurvely chapter! I'm loving this Oliver character you have. He's so.... interesting.
I just have one question: is this story also Harry/Ginny? Not that it matters, but I'm slightly confused.
Author's Response: Thanks! It\'s vaguely Harry/Ginny - i put it in the first chapter that they got together approximatly 3 days after they broke up, but that was so long ago I don\'t blame you for forgetting!
~Tickled Pink~
Date: 09/04/06 Title: Chapter 2: In Which Hermione Is Late And Argues In A Way She Normally Reserves For Ron Weasley
I absolutle love this story. It's very well written, and I like Oliver. Unlike most OCs, he seems to be very fleshed-out.
Author's Response: brilliant, thanks - i was kind of worried that i wasn\'t writing him real enough, but i\'m trying to work on that more!
Date: 11/22/06 Title: Chapter 7: In Which Hermione Works Herself Up Into A Rage And Oliver Wakes Up With A Raging Headache
Siobhan is pronounced Shivaun? Huh. I never would've worked that one out. Anyways, great chapter. I love Sylvestor.
Author's Response: Yeah, it took me ages to work that one out....I think its because of the difficulties in translating Gaelic to English...or maybe someone at some point in history just thought it was funny...bahahahahaha!
Thanks!

Grey by atkarid
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary:
But they didn't. And now, when she was left all alone with nothing to love, was the time when she needed him the most.
Date: 08/27/06 Title: Chapter 1: one-shot
So sad, Claire! But also beautifully written. Poor, poor Molly. I don't really read dark/angsty fics, but this one was really great!
Author's Response: Thanks, Jordan! And I usually don\'t read dark/angsty either... =D
Portrait of A Love Lost by Gmariam
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Harry and Ginny find a portrait tucked away in the Room of Requirement. It is a painting of a beautiful witch with chocolate brown hair and grey eyes, standing next to a very familiar wizard with long auburn hair and twinkling blue eyes. It is a painting of a couple who were once in love, and who were married at Hogwarts many years past. But fate intervened, and a tragic loss separated them. This is their story, a portrait of love lost – and found.
This story was written for the August Monthly Challenge - Weddings and was awarded first place.
Date: 08/25/06 Title: Chapter 1: Prologue
Yay! Another wonderful story by the almighty Gina. As always, it was a great chapter! The dialogue between Harry and Ginny was great.
Author's Response: Hi Jordan! I\'m so glad you decided to read this story, and I am thrilled that you enjoyed it! Thank you so much for the great review!! ~Gina :)
On My Own by grangergurl
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: How does Ginny feel when Harry leaves Hogwarts?
Date: 09/03/06 Title: Chapter 1: On My Own
I think that you did that song perfect justice. It was written very well. I'm just a bit confused as to the timing- it says that Harry likes Cho, yet it talks about him going off to hunt for Horcruxes. Is it AU? But anyways, I really enjoyed it, and the song fit perfectly to the story.
Author's Response: Yikes, forgot to put AU. Yeah, it\'s AU indeed. Thanks!!
Safe Haven by NikkiSue
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: After a conflicting life as the son of a famous and feared Death Eater, Draco Malfoy has turned spy for the Order. After things go awry, his emergency portkey transports him to his Safe House which turns out to be quite the surprise! New bonds are formed and romance is in bloom. This all goes to show that war indeed brings out the best in people — and the worst.
Date: 01/01/07 Title: Chapter 5: Chapter 5 - You Have My Attention
I read your whole story tonight, and I really enjoyed it. The characters didn't seem too bad OOC, and you have some really funny moments in here, too. Is Draco ever going to meet Hermione's parents?
Author's Response: *gasps* I passed ten reviews!!!
*does happy dance* Thank you! I am glad you are enjoying it.
Yes, in answer to your question, he will but it won\'t be a formal introduction. It will be clear that they know each other at one point in... I think... the next chapter. I need to get that one sent to my beta. I forgot the queue reopens tomorrow!

Date: 01/21/07 Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 6 - Go Take A Walk, Hermione . . . NOW.
Yay! Finally, some sort of update in my favorites. It was a good chapter, a bit thrilling, you know? But I don't think Bella and Lucius would've left that early... But the Dark Mark was a good touch.
Date: 02/24/07 Title: Chapter 8: Chapter 8 - Finishing Touches
It took me forever to find the time to read the past two chapters-- I apologize, I've been lazy. Anyways, I really like Draco's characterization. It's hard to find a good Draco fic where he's not some sex-god or a soft, kind-hearted spirit. You show in this fic that he's a good-guy now (I hope), yet he's still arrogant and slightly stuck-up. Like his first conversation with Ron in this fic. He's still completely cheeky, and that's what I loved, along with his jokes with Harry. At first I had a problem with him giving Hermione a "puppy pout", but then I thought about it some more, and I realized it's probably what he did with his mother to get what he wanted. Most spoiled brats do. The idea of him doing that with Hermione is slightly humorous; it's like she took place of his mother.
One thing I didn't get, though, is that Mr. Weasley erased Hermione's parents' memories. With the war that's going on, and the fact that Hermione is a key-witch in the war, I'd think that they would let them keep the memories and explain to them the danger they're in. I guess I can see why you did it, though-- they're Muggles, and it would probably be good for them to not be in-the-know about Voldemort and all that until it was completely necessary.
Back to characterization: I really enjoyed Ron, too. He's the same loyal, Malfoy-hating kid we see in the books. And while he's still hesitant about Draco, he trusts his friends enough to give him a chance. This seems very Ron-like to me, and I know it's hard writing him as spot-one as you do. He's often depicted as over-dramatic and an idiot, yet you still keep him over-protective, without being melodramatic, and still slightly clueless, without being a full-blown thick-headed git.
Well done. Can't wait for the next chapter!
Futility by Rampant Muggle
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: A poem about the final duel between You-Know-Who and Harry.
Date: 09/23/06 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1
Don't see why you think you are such a bad author.... And, I'll assure you, I CAN NOT write poetry as well as this poem came out.
Author's Response: Aww... thanks. I don\'t really know why I think that either. I\'m going through an insanely hard time right now, maybe that\'s why.
Prying Eyes by nysuperstarz
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Ginny is dead. This is a poem in Harry's point of veiw expressing his feelings about Ginny's death.
Date: 11/01/06 Title: Chapter 1: Prying Eye's
'Twas a very sad, beautiful poem. I'm not very great at analysizing poetry, so I probably can't give you any deep advice, but I'll just say that they poem was very clear and very well written.
Author's Response: Thank you very much!
The Wizarding Alphabet by Wand_Waver2006
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Passed down for many generations to help little witches and wizards learn their ABC's, as well as us easily confused muggles.

Date: 10/30/06 Title: Chapter 1: The Wizarding Alphabet
That was quite enjoyable! But are you aware you missed the letter H?
Author's Response: I did? craptastic...thanks for pointing that out, mugglegurl, and thanks for the review!
The Monster "On" Harry's Chest by Chaser921
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: This is a missing moment from HBP. After Ginny tells Harry about Romilda Vane's comment about the hippogriff supposedly tatooed on his chest, she decides to draw a Hungarian Horntail on him with her makeup. One-shot focusing on Harry and Ginny's blossoming relationship.
Date: 12/26/06 Title: Chapter 1: One-shot
I've actually seen that picture by Mudblood428. It's wonderful, and this pic compliments it nicely. Just what I needed right now-- a nice, fluffy, Harry/Ginny story. It's going on my favorites list for future reference ;)
Pain Can Lead to Laughter by lily_writes
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: This one-shot was made as a sequel/follow up to Before They Died. It follows the tragic tale of the day that led to an innocent man to be falsely imprisoned for twelve long, hard years. This fic also offers an explanation as to why he was laughing when the Ministry picked him up.

Date: 12/23/06 Title: Chapter 1: A Bad Day After A Worse Night
*happy dance*
Yay! It got accepted. And although I let you know how I thought when I beta'd, I'll just say that I think that this fic was pretty accurate (with what we know so far, at least). It was very Peter-like to lie about it, even though Sirius knew it was his fault.
As for the missing the Hagrid part in your first review, I don't really think that was necessary for this fic. The part with Hagrid wouldn't have seemed right, since this is a fic about when Sirius meets Peter.
A very nice fic, dear. It was fun to beta and I'm glad it's posted.
Author's Response: *happy dances with mugglegurl* I was so happy when I got the letter saying it had been accepted. It took me a while to lengthen and fix it (I originally wrote it in January 2006). I\'m beyond greatful for your beta work. That\'s very true, I guess if I went back now and tried to put him in he wouldn\'t fit anyway.
