Means: An incurable passion to write.
Updates:
17th of Janyary:
Hey, guys! I'm so pleased that the last chapter is up! I've been waiting, as have you, for nearly two weeks and then it got even more complicated. But now its over, and I submitted the first chapter of the third story into the queue, and hopefully it'll be up really, really soon!
14th of January:
The Alternative Universe category is still having trouble apparantly, and the mods took out my first chapter to the third story probably because of what's going on. Sorry you guys can't read the last chapter. I was hoping we would be done with the second story by now, but unfortunately we're not. I guess we're gonna have to wait until this blows over.
12th of January:
I recieved an email saying that the last chapter was validated, but when I checked the site to say that the story is complete, I realized that there is a problem with the story, which is probably due to the hacking. I sent in the first chapter to the third story, but I may take it out of the queue so that you can read the last chapter to the second story first.
Note: if you wish to read the last chapter it is on fanfiction.net. THe title of the story is the same. Well, I hope this is cleared up soon.
8th of January:
Unfortunately, the final chapter of the installment was rejected for a small, tedious reason. So I just edited it and put it back in the queue. I hope its up by the end of next week. Anyway, Happy New Year!
18th of December:
Hey, guys!! Thought I'd let you know that Chapter 43 was rejected, so it might be a few more days before it's up. On a good note, I finished my first semester at the university I attend! Now, I have over a month off to write both fanfiction and my own work, so I might soon be done with the third installment (which so far has nearly 30 chapters). Yay! I hope you have enjoyed the second story!

A Furry Little Problem by Vindictus Viridian
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: The young and bored Sirius Black amuses himself with the top hat in his closet, inspired by the nefarious influence of Muggle television. **Warning -- natural rabbit behaviour within**

It Is Our Choices by GBrampton
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: His tortured and bleeding body lay broken and twisted on the ground. He was wrecked and he could not move. In the distance, he thought he could hear voices but he was beyond caring. He didn’t want to fight anymore. He had done what he had set out to do and wanted peace.
What if Harry had made a different choice? Would he be the person we recognise him to be? Special thanks to black_ink for allowing me to use her idea.
Date: 05/09/06 Title: Chapter 1: One
I like the part you added with Lupin and Snape. Nice touch. Good job! ~Sara
Author's Response: I\'m so glad you like it. I ould have hated for you to not like something I wrote from your idea.
The scene with Lupin and Snape was a late addition between my beta and myself and, I think, tells so much about the characters and their situation than you would expect from such a snippet.
Thanks for the review!
Life is But A Dream by Pondering
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: When Sirius passes through the veil, he ends up in the Realm of Dreams. He manages to wake up. But when he wakes up, it’s the 30th of October 1981. The past fourteen years have never happened. He has a chance. Will it all be for naught?
Note: The word count for the story is incorrect, it should read around 21096 words. I arrived at this amount by adding the word count for the individual chapters together.
Date: 09/08/07 Title: Chapter 7: VII: Tampering With Time
It was slightly confusing at times, but I guess time travel can do that. Hehe! I can't wait to see what happens! I can tell exciting things are approaching!! ~Sara
Author's Response: yep- there\'s only two or three chapters left so we\'re nearly reaching the end. Time travel is so confusing isn\'t it? Sirius thinks so, anyway. ;)
thanks for the review! :)
Date: 09/30/06 Title: Chapter 3: III. Merrily, Merrily, Merrily, Merrily
Very good!! Sometimes Voldemort seemed pretty un-Voldemort like. But I really liked it!! ~Sara
Author's Response: Yeah, writing Voldemort is hard for me, although this is good practice. :) I took a few words out of his dialogue just now per the mod\'s suggestion when it was validated.
Date: 11/04/06 Title: Chapter 4: IV. Don't Forget to Scream
Good chapter!! Really wonderful! I can't believe they all died except Remus! ~Sara
Author's Response: Yup, three of the Marauders down in one night. Of course, Lily survived...
Date: 09/04/07 Title: Chapter 6: VI. Sorry
Oh no!!! What's going to happen?! I have to know, update soon!! ~Sara
Author's Response: The next chapter\'s in the queue. Glad you enjoyed it :)
Date: 08/17/06 Title: Chapter 2: II. Gently Down the Stream
Oh crap!!! I can't wait to see what happens next!!! Very good! You write really well!! ~Sara
Date: 10/17/07 Title: Chapter 8: VII: Into the Veil
Oooo!!! I can't wait to read what happens next!! Did it say that Snape died in 1981!??! Whoa! Very different! That lady Monday really scares me! Update soon! ~Sara
Date: 05/16/06 Title: Chapter 1: I. Row, Row, Row Your Boat.
I hope you continue writing. I like the ideas you came up with. I like the fact that he met someone else behind the veil, and that it was Luna's mother. Keep it up! ~Sara
The Cloak by cmwinters
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: How Harry Potter got his invisibility cloak and who gave it to him
Date: 05/23/06 Title: Chapter 1: The Cloak
I loved it!!! I loved that you didn't tell is exactly who it was until the very end. I must admit that I had a hard time figuring it out, which is good, I think. You write very well. ~Sara
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I am glad you enjoyed it!
It's a Part of You Now by HarryPotter is my LIFE
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Just as Ron and Hermione's relationship begins to blossom, a horrific event occurs. Kidnapped by Severus Snape, Hermione is taken to the remains of Malfoy Manor. There, she meets her worst enemy, Draco Malfoy. But somehow, he's different. Will Hermione be lured by Draco's new kindness, or stay true to Ron?
Date: 09/06/06 Title: Chapter 5: Epilogue- Life After
Nice chapter!! But who poisoned Harry?
Author's Response: Thanks! Oh, it was just a detail. Um . . . *thinks* We\'ll say that it was a Death Eater who was never even the slightest bit suspected. He worked at the ministry and could never try to come to power, for lack of supporters. Instead, he chose to poisin the man who killed his master. There! Ha! I\'m good at making things up on the spot! =)
Date: 07/11/06 Title: Chapter 1: Prologue
This is really good! I really liked it, and I'll continue reading it!! ~Sara
Author's Response: Thank you! I\'m glad that you liked it and that you will continue to read!
Date: 07/11/06 Title: Chapter 2: Learning to Trust
Oooo!!! No legs. Thats interesting. Now I see the reason! Keep it going! ~Sara
Author's Response: Yes. Snape wants revenge on Hermione for ruining his life. (Go her!)
Date: 08/28/06 Title: Chapter 3: An Explanation from the Past
It went too fast for me to think that they actuallylove each other. But I liked the memory in the beginning.
Author's Response: Yeah, I know. Rereading this chapter, I find it so utterly dreadul, and I\'m even thinking about changing it. Really, I hate it. I looks like a ten-year old wrote it. Hopefully the next chapters make up for it. There was a memory?
Author's Response: OKAY, PAY ABSOLUTELY NO ATTENTION TO THE ABOVE RESPONSE! I repeat, pretend it isn\'t there. Because I was on another planet when I responded to your review, I for some reason, thought that you were reviewing another one of my storys. OKAY, THIS IS THE REAL RESPONSE. I\'m glad you liked the memory, I thought I\'d throw it in to clear a few things up. Okay. You said it went too fast for you to believe they actualy loved each other. I\'m not going to say anything giving away the ending, but just read on (when I post the next chapter). Things will either be explained or surprise you.
Date: 09/04/06 Title: Chapter 4: Return to Normalcy
Awww!!! Hermione and Ron are so cute! Sad about Draco though.
Author's Response: Yeah, I am sort of sad about Draco too. But Dramione is for another day. From the beginning, even before I started to write the story, I knew it was going to be R/Hr in the end, even if I did have my doubts and wonder how it would turn out if I ended with D/Hr.

Rated 6th-7th years for mild language and slight innuendo.
Date: 07/14/07 Title: Chapter 1: A Death Eater Handbook
hahaha!! Fantastic!!! Absolutely fantastic!! It's hilarious! If the HP books were comedy, then this would be perfect for it! The Rules are so funny and seem like Voldemort would actually say these to his Death Eaters!! Loved it completely!! ~Sara
Author's Response: Thanks! :-D I\'m really glad you liked the fic! And Voldy would probably mention some of those rules to the DE\'s, lol.
A Thousand Words: Alternate Epilogue by annie

The Blood-Splattered Bathroom by LuckyRatTail
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Written for the Spring Challenge prompt 'What You Wish For'.
Set during The Half-Blood Prince. When Malfoy brews the Optatus Potion successfully, he believes his troubles are over - drink the potion, make a wish, finish the task. Until Potter catches him in the act, and what he wishes for is not what he wanted.
Extract:
Malfoy sneered. "Do you know what, Potter?" he continued, the force of his fury fuelling his words. "One day, I wish it could just be you against me. No holds barred. No teachers, no rules, no Mudblood friends. No Dumbledore to save your skin. Then we'd see what you're really made of!"
First Place in its category in the Spring Challenge!
Date: 08/06/07 Title: Chapter 1: The Blood-Splattered Bathroom
Great story!! It's exactly as I pictured Draco's side of the story to be in Half-Blood Prince!! ~Sara
Author's Response: Excellent, thank you ;o)
