I'm a truck driver who was introduced to Harry Potter by my daughter in 1999. The books are fantastic, the movies are some of the best made, and the fanfic is better than that I've read in Star Trek, Buffy, and even the Xena universes.
BTW, the Sorting Hat put me exactly where I belong, in Gryffindor.

Summary: The Healers blatantly ignored him. No sense in spending time and money to save a patient for later execution. Better to let him die now. Better for everyone concerned...
Severus Snape, war criminal, head of the Ministry's Most Wanted list since the end of the war, is finally apprehended - but not without a fierce fight. No one cares if he lives or dies, or even
how he dies, except for one person...

Title: Chapter 4: Starting Over
An excellent read with the main characters very true to JKR's rendition. Loved it! Especially since you didn't just throw them into each others' arms, but allowed the seeds of a real friendship be planted.
Author's Response: Thank you! Snape is far too damaged and suspicious to fall into anyone\'s arms at the drop of a hat... it would take time to develop any level of trust. Glad you thought the characters true to form - that means a lot!

Summary: It's been four years since Ginny has seen Harry. He's finally defeated Voldemort & he's coming home. But neither one of them know what to expect, whether they can have a relationship together or not. Anticipation builds as they get ready to see each other for the first time.
Chapter 10 has now been submitted to the mods!! I know that many of you will be happy to finally read the last chapter. Anywho...expect it to be posted around 11/17 or so. Happy Reading!

Title: Chapter 6: Mood Swings
I'm loving the story, and I really laugned at a small miswording:
Ginny blushed, “I couldn’t bare you sleeping on that small thing...
I'm sure you meant "bear" in that sentence. If she were to "bare" him she'd be undressing him...

I love your story! And I found myself wondering about:

I know you meant "pore" over their letters; I found myself wondering if they added sugar after pouring milk over the letters!

Title: Chapter 1: Breaking the Mind Trap
Normally I avoid Draco/Hermione stories like I would a rabid dog. This is the first one I've read that I found believable. It pulled me into it without letting on that it was a D/H, held me in its grip, and persuaded me for once that a D/H relationship could be possible.
Author's Response: Well I am quite glad I\'m not a rabid dog, maybe a rabid sheep or something, I dunno. But, on a more serious note, I\'m glad that you enjoyed the fic, and thank you for your (eloquent) compliment.

This fic is the true beginning of the Epilogues story arc, and should be the first of my fics that you read. After this story, please read One Good Day. Thank you.

Title: Chapter 1: Right Here
I normally don't read songfics. I'm glad I had some downtime today and read yours. Fluff? Sure, but I think you finally exposed what's been going on in their heads all this time, especially Ron's.
Author's Response: Awesome thanks. I think that's one of the reasons why I didn't want to write a songfic; because I typically don't read them. But, I'm really glad you had some downtime today too. As for Ron's head, I think maybe the reason this fight went the way it did was because Ron's part in all this is probably the least played out. Thanks for the review.

Title: Chapter 1: A Wizard in OUR family?
I enjoyed your exploration of the feelings of parents and other relatives on learning a child is so very different. JKR's characters have focused so much on the worst Muggles that we forget others would be very unlikely to react as negatively as they did to Harry, yet would be just as unlikely to consider it as wonderful as we fans believe we would. I also have to admire your story-telling skills--you drew me right into the story, introduced me to the characters without drawing attention to the fact you were doing it, and kept it all moving. Very well done!
Author's Response: Thank you very, very much! I'm so glad you liked it! I'm very open to things I should do to improve my writing. Thank you! ~bL

Wow! Talk about a dark one... about a man living with the worst mistake he ever made... Remus may as well go dig his grave! I hope JKR gives him some happiness at the end of the books, that she let's him open his heart; you've certainly illustrated what's in store for him if he doesn't.

Summary: When you marry someone, you marry their family too. This is something that Fleur Delacour and Bill Weasley didn't consider. The two families couldn't be more different, especially the women. The day before the wedding, Fred and George came up with a plan to make the women stop arguing amongst each other. That was, of course, if they didn’t kill each other first.

Title: Chapter 1: Molly Loses Her Head
You're got the core of what could be a great story here, but only that. At this point it's like watching a trailer for a coming film. And it's hard to read because of the abrupt transitions, with the characters barely seeming to register the stages of grief... Please consider doing this one again as a multi-chaptered story with MUCH more to it. What you gave us is SO good it's hard to believe you left out so much.
Author's Response: Wow, I can\'t believe you liked it. Well, liked the premise of it, anyway. I will definitely consider what you said; after I read your review I started thinking about the stuff I could add and stuff -- good idea. Have a nice day! *D*

Excellent! I've wondered why JKR hasn't really told us more about Ron's strategic abilities since the first book... Since then his abillies been very subtly mentioned, almost hidden.
Author's Response: Perhaps they\'ll be highlighted in the last book? I just hope that we won\'t get another parallel from the first book with Ron sacrificing his life... I too wish we got more of that side of Ron in canon--and in fanfic. Thanks for the review!

Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1
It's an OK story now... Please come back to it in a few months and I think you'll be able to make it much better! In other words, you've got a great idea here, using the Mirror of Erised to help Harry come to grips with his conflicting needs (justice vs being with those he loves). You just need to come back later and polish the Mirror!
Author's Response: Haha, the story is actually a couple months old. I was just too lazy to fix it up, because just by looking at it I could tell that in order to fix it up I\'d have to practically re-write the whole thing, which I really didn\'t want to do. Thanks for reading, though!

Summary: It seemed that the young schoolboy with striking blonde hair had aged over thirty years in just a few hours. His silver hair was beyond recognition. It had turned into a strange murky brown, maybe due to the grime and blood.
Who am I? This is not me. I've become a ghost with no hope of life. Merlin! Why couldn't things be the way they were before...
This is my version of what happens after the HBP. Also, this is my first FF, so please R/R!

I found only one problem in your story... Bellatrix acting like a person with a soul! In most fanfics she's completely insane, as likely to kill Draco as anyone else! Actually, I think even psychotic killers like Bella still have normal, lucid moments when they'd regret the loss of their family members.
Keep writing! You're good.
Author's Response: A/N Thanx for the review!
Ya, I know its kind of wierd for Bellatrix to be in a pensieve mood, but I figured even the most ruthless of people might have a heart too.
