Hi, I decided to join MuggleNet Fan Fiction so that I could review people's work. I may submit my own work in holiday periods or times of semester when I don't have many assignments. I'm in my last year of a Bachelor of Journalism and live in Australia.
-----------
I'm sorry to say I'm not going to continue updating my story on MuggleNet Fanfiction. I'm just too frustrated with the amount of inconsistencies I have come across in the moderating process. I know for a fact that my work (as far as grammar and punctuation goes) is of a relatively high standard, and even that gets rejected. However, I read other stories where they get homonyms mixed up (eg. use "to" instead of "too", or "there" instead of "their", or "here" instead of "hear")- such basic mistakes which get through the moderation. It's so annoying and I'm so sick of waiting 3 weeks for one of my chapters to get moderated- and then have it rejected, when it's of a much higher quality than other ones which get accepted- that I simply can't be bothered continuing to update on here.
I will continue to update the story at http://maria87.deviantart.com
Please do not delete- I may not be updating my story here but I still like commenting on other people's!

As Happily Ever After As They're Gonna Get by cjbaggins
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: My take on the first of those 'nineteen years' between the 36th chapter of DH and the epilogue.
Warnings: contains an unusually-shaped ring, a nosy neighbour, a rude shop assistant, shaving mishaps, thoughtful gestures, threatening goblins, and, unexplained appearances of Romantic!Ron and Romantic!Harry. You have been warned.
Rating is for *mild* innuendo and *mostly* innocent interactions but I wouldn't let my 9 year old read it.
Love Conquers by dumbly_dorr
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: If you're looking for the usual James-loves-Lily-but-Lily-hates-James storyline, then this isn't it. The thing is, Lily doesn't hate James at all, he can just be annoying at the best of times. As she comes to realise why she doesn't hate him, it leads to the famous love we all know about. Set against the backdrop of a warring magical world where nothing is certain, can James and Lily hold onto each other and fight?
UPDATE August 08: It's FINISHED! Thank you so much to all those who have read and reviewed this story, I have loved your support. i hope there are still people out there who are willing to read it. Keep an eye out for more stories by me! UPDATE February '08: I have changed the chapter names of some of the 'Defied' chapters, to make this fit and to make it more plausible, as I see the 'thrice defying' of Voldemort as happening when James and Lily are part of the Order of the Phoenix.
UPDATE 20th September: I have altered my facts in the chapter 'Once Defied' as I made mistakes in the ages of James and Lily. It didn't matter so much in this chapter but had annoying repercusions for future chapters. It should all now be correct.
Of Cauldrons and Comrades by LuthAn
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: "Albus Dumbledore aimed his wand at the Pensieve’s liquid depths and twitched his arm upwards. Ten ghostly figures slowly emerged from the liquid, their bodies spun out of the translucent matter. The Gryffindor Class of 1978..."
We all know how this tale ends, but how does it begin? Did Lily hate James from Day One? Did James fall head over heels the moment he first laid eyes on Lily? How did Remus feel about the whole thing? Who let Peter slip through the cracks? And what exactly happens when Sirius gets hold of some Time-Release Dungbombs?
The Marauders' years at Hogwarts were marked by internal demons, external tensions, and whispers from the shadows growing steadily louder. By intertwining lives in the midst of danger. By powerful love and a whole lot of laughter. This is their story, a tale of cauldrons and comrades.

Broken Souls by kingbobrules
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: As the wizarding world rejoices, Harry’s never come so close to just giving up. But as he tries to walk away from Voldemort’s crumpled body, something stops him. Someone. Ginny.
But Harry’s a broken man. He’s in no state to deal with his feelings for Ginny or to give her the relationship she deserves and he tries to tell her that. But Ginny’s got something of her own to tell. Something that might just make Harry face up to his demons and stick around.
However, Harry’s not the only one struggling to cope. Ginny is on the verge of breaking down and fleeing herself, but will anyone notice in time? And what on earth is Ron going to say when he learns of his seventeen year old sister’s situation?
Extract: Truth to be told he didn’t really know how exactly you would classify things between him and Ginny at the moment, but he did know the lie of land. They were having a baby together.
This fic is finally back!!!

Broom Cupboard Confessions by cto10121
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Harry Potter learns how his parents got together...in the most unexpected way. Can't say anymore for fear of giving too much away. A bit of AU, ( all right, I'll admit it, a lot) and the sexual situations warnings for a little bit of kissing. The rating is for sexual innuendos. R&R!!
