If you look at my favorites, you'll see that I am a
Ron/Hermione shipper, and Harry/Ginny as well. I love those crazy kids :-)
I'm probably not so good at writing romance, though -- my main strength is character studies. For me, writing is a way of trying to understand the world around me, and figuring out why people do what they do is a theme that will probably crop up a lot in my writing.
Also, I am a PI-Accredited beta, and my specialty is helping those whose first language is not English.
Ahhahahahaaa, I knew I spotted a Python reference!!! Also, love the name of the NEWT book author, Ennui-Payne -- very clever, something JKR herself would do :-) I'm really enjoying this, I usually wait til the end to review, but I had to comment on those 2 things! haha, great job!
Ooh, ooh, I got it! "In these uncertain times, many witches and wizards carried Portkeys..." It's Roger the Shrubber! Oh no, I don't remember what exactly he says!!! Well, I found it anyway, 50 points for Ravenclaw! haha, good job anyway -- must move on and find out what's happened!
Damn it, I conjured a Python reference out of nowhere! Ah well... lol.... oh yay, a kiss! I love it :-)
"She turned me into a newt!" ahhh, good times. Poor Harry :-\
This is brilliant. Brilliant. It's so real, the depression, Harry's guilt, everything. Brilliant. Excellent. Wow. (Have you ever read the Ender's Game series by Orson Scott Card? The whole theme of war and guilt is a big part of that, and I think I love this story for the same reasons I love that.)

Author's Response: Thank you so much. It was definitely some work making sure that I got Harry\'s state of mind down perfectly throughout this story, so I\'m glad I did that right by you. No, I haven\'t read Ender\'s Game, or anything by Orson Scott Card, but the name definitely rings a bell. I think a friend of mine was into his books. well, thanks or the review.
April showers bring May...hassles? Bridesmaid blues and big trouble from small favours complicate Tonks' life when all she wants is to bring her love for Remus into full bloom.
*squeee* I love finding Beatles fans amongst HP authors! Great story so far - love drunken Tonks - but I must read the rest of it!
Author's Response: The Beatles are classic and fab! ^_^ Yay for you reading the rest!
You know what, I almost feel like you are stalking me ;) "I’d rather like to have Harry as a son-in-law one day." -- my mom said the same thing about a friend of mine, AND the only thing close to a "date" we've had is ice-skating. No kidding! Anyway, I am really enjoying this! I LOVE your Ginny, she's so cheeky! I love this story so much, can't wait for the next installment!!!
That's beautiful! Very much how I imagine Ron and Hermione feeling for each other, too. I speak Spanish too, so I have an urge to translate it and see how it compares to the original! haha! Excelente :)
Author's Response: Thank you very much NorskHeksen! I must admit this poem made me nervous because it is the first I publish here (or in any other place of the internet). Oh, and if you want, I\'ll email you the original poem, so you can read it just as it came to me :) Thanks for the review!
awwww! I love this! So sweet... and I love the twins of course! Great job!
This is so cute, I love it! I love how you tied everything from the books together, and added new stuff too :) Lovely!
Author's Response: Thank you so much!
Oh, that was very beautifully Ender-ish. Harry and Ender really do have so much in common! (SftD is my absolute favourite book of all time. Is it bad that I pictured this taking place on Lusitania? lol) You were also very true to Draco's character and, well, life story, I thought. So you did quite well by both OSC and JKR! I'm favourite-ing this :-)
Author's Response: I love Ender too, and saw the parralells almost imeadiatly. I really just tried to pull two great philosophies together, and hope that it worked. Thank you very much for your kind words and letting me know it did.
Wow, that's intense... very sick, but of course that how it's supposed to be. Just out of curiousity, do you study history or are you just interested in it? I can't guarantee I'll be able to read the rest of it, but it's a very interesting project and I applaud you :)
