Starting Over is still an active story, but this unfortunately does not mean it will be fluidly updated, just that it will come up with a new chapter whenever I have the time. I am taking my time with each chapter, making sure it's the best work I am capable of within the realm of the Potterverse. I'm conjecturing that this will be my final work of fan fiction for Harry Potter, as I'm growing more of an affinity for my own original stories, using the experience I've gained from my work on here and other fan fiction sites.
Again, I do want to say how sorry I am that I did not complete In Nomine Amoris to its end. I could tell you how it was going to end, though I doubt it matters to anyone at this point, moved by Deathly Hallows as we were. I also doubt that anyone is going to read this profile information, but oh, well. It's here, just in case.
Love,
Christine

A Tale of Two Matchmakers by Kerichi
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: Romance for three couples when Blaise and Luna use Shakespearean styled matchmaking to hook up Ginny and Draco. There's Much Ado about...something!
Nominated for a Quicksilver Quill for Best Romance-Non Canon 2007, 2008, and 2009. In 2010 mods changed the rules (they got tired of the same fics being nominated ^_~) so no more QQ hopes, but that's okay. No proof is needed that Draco/Ginny = love.
* Written before the HBP, this tale presents an alternate sixth year in which Dumbledore lives, Draco is more than a foil to Harry, and Blaise Zabini is a girl. I hope readers who ship Draco/Ginny will enjoy the story which includes dancing with faeries, Celtic and Norse mythology, school holidays in London and Spain, and loads of fantasy and romance. "Is this a kissing book?" (to quote the Princess Bride) Yes, it is. *
(Warnings were added for safety, due to brief allusions in later chapters, not graphic content.)
Date: 01/15/07 Title: Chapter 23: New Year's Eve
Absolutely lovely. I DID catch the Princess Bride quotes/names. You incorporated them wonderfully, in my humble opinion.
Author's Response: IMHO, your humble opinion should be exalted and thrown rose petals. :D
Date: 02/08/07 Title: Chapter 24: A Bump in the Road to Love
I'm so behind in this story! I don't know how I'm going to catch up... I will, though--eventually. Very busy time of year (academically)! So, this was a good chapter; the heartbreak of Blaise was particularly well-done, I think. And I love Luna in this chapter. She was lucid, but in a believable way.
Author's Response: I feel your pain about being busy and I\'m thrilled you take time to read whenever you can! Luna isn\'t in Ravenclaw because they didn\'t know where else to put her, lol. She\'s very smart...in her unique way! ;)

Snape's Folly by Dumbledore Prince

He is thinking about what he has done, and what rewards he has got. Little does Snape know about the vicious trap he has walked into, and the price he has to pay in return …
Date: 06/27/06 Title: Chapter 1: One-shot
Wow--Dumbledore Prince, you're not only a fantastic reviewer, but also a magnificent writer! I find your insinuations concerning Snape's character very believable. To think, that he might be on neither side...it's very good idea, and you played out the pieces perfectly. Congratulations on a job well done!

Author's Response: Hi, Christine!
Thanks for the appreciative review!

The Perfect Mistake by hearyoume
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary:
At age 22, Ginny is living on her own and has a job at the Ministry. Everything had been going well since her engagement, but she is stunned when her fiancé commits the ultimate act of betrayal. Heartbroken and in desperate need of comfort, Ginny goes to the Malfoy Mansion, but what happens that night has greater consequences than she ever imagined.
So this is where my story begins: a day that seemed nothing out of the ordinary but would become a changing day, a day when my life took an unexpected turn and caused me to make a mistake that would alter my life as I knew it. But it wasn’t just any mistake – it was the perfect mistake.

Yes, if only.... hoping it'll all pan out soon, 'cause this whole no-one-knowing-about-Ginny-being-pregnant thing is torture!!
Author's Response: Muahaha. But then where would the suspense be?? Thanks for the review (:
Date: 06/05/06 Title: Chapter 2: The Mistake
I loved "The Awakening," and this is great as well. It's believeable how you write it--incredibly well-written. I confess that I haven't read many Draco/Ginny fics in the past (though I'm writing one myself), but I find yours exceptionally interesting.
Author's Response: Oh, cool, I\'m glad you liked this too! Trust me, it takes me a long time to plan out these Draco/Ginny fics so that they are realistic, and it makes me very pleased to hear that you think it\'s so believable. Actually, I haven\'t read that many Draco/Ginny fics either, but I hope that just makes mine more original. Thanks very much for reviewing, and I will keep an eye out for your Draco/Ginny fic. Good luck with it!
Date: 07/02/06 Title: Chapter 4: The Awful Truth
Oh, I want to hug Ginny! It'll all be okay! Loving the fic... Hope she talks to Draco soon.
Author's Response: Haha, she does need a hug... you\'ll see what happens sometimes soon. Thank you for reviewing, as usual :D

You had me laughing the whole way through! The story was a great commentary on how bogus true Mary Sues can be. This was great!

The Things We Do For Love by Kerichi
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary:
After her first kiss with Ron, Hermione asks Ginny for advice. What follows is a lesson in the things we do for love.
This three part story was written pre-HBP, when the future looked, if not exactly rosy, at least not that dreadful shade of Lavender that coloured the Potterverse in the sixth book.
* Rated for snogging ^_~*
Date: 06/30/06 Title: Chapter 1: It started with a kiss
Very cute, left me wanting more!
Author's Response: Thank you, I\'ll be more than happy to give it! ^_~
