Now with more Snape down the Whomping Willow! Check out Chapter 10: A Highly Amusing Joke and Chapter 11: Skyfall
I loved it! You had me laughing throughout all of it! Good job and keep it up! Patiently awaiting the next update...
Author's Response: Thanks! I'm glad to know I made you laugh. Next update goes in the queue tonight!
First off I want to say you are an incredibly talented writer!! All of your stories are great! I think i have to say that this is my favorite chaptered story of all time! All of the characterizations are great and spot on!! Ginny and Harry have the bumpy relationship that I imagined they would too. I love the way you portray Ginny being thoughtful about all of the little stuff too. Ginny's dress and Harry's necklace/present are examples of the little things that make all of your stories click! They are minor details but they help make your stories seem so real. These last few chapters are my favorite and you leave this story on a really great note, making me want more... Which leads to another topic.
I know you are currently busy with other stories but i didn't know if you were going to finish this one or not? There hasn't been another chapter in over a year so I'm beginning to think that my favorite story has come to a close. I really hope you haven't abandoned this one.
On a lighter note... Keep up the good work!! Your stories are great and i hope you continue to write! Thanks!!

Thanks for the review. I've been distracted by Cjhallenge stories over the past few months. But no longer. My plan, such as it is, is to try to get at least one of my works in progress completed. At the moment, I’m concentration on Hunters and Prey (three chapters to go, one almost complete and the other two in rough draft).
As for the others, Strangers at Drakeshaugh is still at lead ten chapters (and probably fifteen) away from completion. Nevertheless I’m trying to update it regularly. Sports Day will be three chapters. The “fluffy†stories (Molly and her Daughter and Epithalamium) are more short story collections than a novel and they will be updated “as and whenâ€. This story (A&S) will become my priority once H&P is complete. It’s not abandoned, honest.
All of this will be interrupted when I get an idea for a one shot, but I’m trying to resist starting any more chaptered stories.

Yyyaaayyyy!!:) an update!!:) I'm so happy! I loved it! Keep writing!!
Author's Response: Thanks, glad you liked it. Next you'll see Hunters and Prey, probably. -N-
Fantastic!! You should seriously consider writing a story on what happened during that game and what the critics said afterwards!!
Author's Response: Thank you. I've been struggling to write a Quidditch match. Ever since I wrote Swimsuit Quidditch, I simply can't write a serious match description. I have a couple of ideas, but not until I finish Hunters and Prey. -N-
I cant wait to read the rest of this story!! When will you have it finished? Please make it sometime soon!!
Author's Response: Thanks for the review.
I will be posting the next chapter within the next few days-N-
I absolutely love your work!! This just keeps getting better and better!!! When will the next chapter be done?
Author's Response: Thank you. My plan is to submit both chapter 2 of Brown, and the next chapter of "Strangers" before the next chapter of this. -N-
I absolutely love this story!! This and strangers are my favorite, although your story james and me is really good too. But i am kinda worried... its been almost a month and a half since this or strangers was updated.. When will you be updating them!?! thanks
Author's Response: Hi.
Writing the Character Challenge stories (like James and Me) slowed me down, bu I'm now back on Strangers and this story. I'll be sending the next chapter of this to my betas very soon. Strangers will take a little longer.-N-
I was soooooo excited when i saw that you put the next chapter up!! I simply dropped everything and read it! This is such an interesting story and your writing skills amazing!! When will the next chapter be up!?!? Dont make us wait long pleasee!!!
Author's Response: Thanks for the review. The next chappter needs another read through before I can send it to my betas. The chaper after that is only 2200 words, and it will be about 7000 when it's done. I don't think you'll see the next chapter until next month (unless I unexpectedly get a lot of free time. -N-
This was a great chapter! The repeated cliffhanger was a really cool idea! I was so excited when I was that u had updated this story! The Phoenix idea was really cool.. What is the meaning of it being a Phoenix though?! Will it have anything to do with a live Phoenix either past or future?! Keep it up!!
Author's Response:
Thank you.
The next chapter will start at a point in chapter 15. The moment Susan and Lavender's conversation ends. I've wanted to change their Patronuses for some time. We know that they can change (because Tonks's did). I also wanted them to match (like James and Lily's). But I didn't want to simply do it, nor did I want Ginny to end up with a doe, or Harry with a stallion. The idea of them changing during a desperate shared peril seemed to me to be the best way to do it, and the phoenix has so many meanings (including never ending rebirth) I simply couldn't resist using it.
Epic reply, sorry. -N-
Please write another chapter!!! This is too cute!!
I absolutely looovveee this story! Its my favorite james/lily fic and its so cute! I get so excited every time its updated!!:) i think it would be cool if you wrote this same story in lily's point of view!! Thanks for writing! Keep it up!!
Haha great idea! I love how u made us guess in the beginning by not telling us who they were dressed up as.. It fits very well into your canon world that i love so much also! How only harry and hermione know what the "gang" does and how they talk is a cute touch... It left me laughing!!:)
Author's Response: Thanks for the review.
I hope that guessing was all part of the fun. Harry and Hermione will certainly have seen the show when they were small. They know a lot of things that Ron and Ginny don’t.-N-
This is amazing! You should do a second part to the story!!
Author's Response: I am very pleased you like this story. And, I don't see Annie ever realising she's an idiot, do you? :p But if a second part beckons, there definitely will be one! :) Thank you!
This is really well written. I loved the idea! Will there be a follow up story on the celebrations?!
Author's Response: I was always surprised that the staff at Hogwarts never mentioned having a one-thousandth-anniversary celebration, so I decided to nudge them in that direction. No plans at present for a follow-up, but you have put a flea in my ear...
