I decided that I wanted to revamp my entire bio, considering how long it was getting. Be warned that this bio CONTAINS DEATHLY HALLOWS SPOILERS.
So hi! I'm Jerri, also known as Just Tink- as in, you can JUST call me TINK. I answer to Tink, JT, and Jerri, but if you want to make up another, cooler nickname you're welcome to. As you can see, I love Disney- though not as much as Harry Potter, the Boy Who Lived Even Though He Died. Sort Of.
So how AWESOME was Deathly Hallows? I mean, really. Best book ever, by far. I cried for about twenty-four hours straight, but other than that I really couldn't have been happier with it. Because- "They were SNOGGING!" =)
Currently I have finished writing my chaptered fic, Late Bloomer, (!!!!), and as soon as I can beta it I'll get it up on the site. As my beta is a mod (and a fantastical one at that) it may still be awhile, but there will be no two month lulls- I promise.
I also have two chaptered romance fics in the works- one, a Percy/OC, that disregards DH, and one, a Victoire Weasley centric fic called 'Offending Her Highness' that is chock-full of spoilers. OHH will be up soon as a one-shot, and after Late Bloomer is finished I'll work on expanding it. My Percy fic is still in the early stages of development, so expect OHH to be worked on first. I'd also like to get some new humor stories up, as well as expanding on plot bunnies given to me by DH- I'm itching to write missing moments from that book.
In the meantime, I hope you enjoy the stories I have up! (And for the record, I love the Quicksilver Quills and if nominated will probably fall down dead. But since that is unlikely, I urge everyone to get over to the boards and nominate their favorite stories! Yes, even if they're not mine. Your favorite story's author will probably give you cookies.)

I really like this story. I love when Ginny glances over the at the Ravenclaw table when she was talking about somebody who wouldn't mind Harry acting strange... Harry/Luna, all the way- though frankly, I have no idea whom Ron's date is. "I usually play with trevor." That's another favorite line, in a sad, poor neville sort of way.
Chasing A Dream by Noldo
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: They looked back and had no regrets, because it was for Remus. A vignette.
Date: 03/19/06 Title: Chapter 1: Chasing A Dream
This was just... wow. Rarely does a story make me feel pain, frustration, and happiness- particularly a one-shot. I find that its nearly impossible to cram so many emotions into the words. But you have done it. Thank you for giving me such pleasure. 10/10.
The Secret thoughts of Hermione Granger by Hermiones_Revenge
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Hermione describes her Ron troubles in this series of hilarious journal entries, notes passed in class, and lists. And...Mrs Norris is a duck?
NOTE: This was written quite some time ago, in my younger years. It was my first story...which should explain a lot.
Date: 01/18/07 Title: Chapter 4: Detention isn't always bad
aw, that was such a cute ending! (sorry for the lousy review, but must go read the sequel!)
A Muggle's Encounter with Platform 9 and 3/4 by VoldemortsPatronus
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Trains, crazy old janitors, Fred and George mooning someone, this fic has it all. With Wizards all around them, Muggles are bound to see something weird everyonce in a while. This short story is taken from the beginning of Goblet of Fire.
Date: 09/23/06 Title: Chapter 1: Waiting for Jovie
lol! Very funny. I loved the last line. When I read that the janitor was staring at the floor, I thought he might be a wizard... anyways, excellent story!
Becoming a Dad by iouaname
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: A one-shot about the night of Harry's birth. James's point-of-view. With poem by Edgar A. Guest.
Date: 04/18/06 Title: Chapter 1: Becoming a Dad
Great story! It's rare you find somebody who can characterize James really well, and the poem fit perfectly. wonderful job!
Evil Villainy for Dummies by Hermiones_Revenge
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: (Hi, I wrote this when I was 16, please keep that in mind. I'm keeping it up because people still like it.)
So, you want to be an evil villain? In this handbook that a certain Hogwarts student purchases, all of the rules, techniques, and frequently asked questions about evil villainy are explained. Do you have what it takes? And what will happen to the student who purchases the book? Another story from the strange, twisted, and slightly unfortunate Hermione's Revenge.
Date: 10/11/06 Title: Chapter 9: Epilogue - A success story/About the Author
excellent story! Read it straight through in half an hour. =) It has a ring of Lemony Snicket's books, especially the paragraph about the twenty four and such... or perhaps Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Excellent work!
Monty Python and the Goblet of Fire by Rosemunde
Rated: •Summary: "Monty Python and the Goblet of Fire" explores the profound question of what scenes from "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" would be like if they were done as Monty Python sketches. Here the fic begins. A parody of the "Swedish subtitles" bit during the beginning credits of "Monty Python and The Holy Grail." Written for a GoF parody challenge. Rated PG-13, because I'm unsure of the language factor. (Disclaimer: I don't own anything related to Monty Python, JK Rowling, or the owners of the Unofficial Monty Python site, who helped me out enormously. I'm making no money from this)
Date: 01/11/07 Title: Chapter 3: Defense Against the Dark Arts
that... was.... THE PARROT SKETCH! This story (and you) officially ROCK. I'm seeing Spamalot in a couple of days so I've been looking for stuff to get me pumped.... this is an awesome story! Favorite chapter so far.
Date: 01/11/07 Title: Chapter 6: The End!
yeah. that song? is one of my favorites EVER, and this is now tied with the parrot/toad scene as my favorite chapter ever. Excellent!

Complete!"Thy friendship oft has made my heart to ache; do be my enemy - for friendship's sake." -William Blake
Date: 01/21/07 Title: Chapter 22: Epilogue: Woods
I hate it to be over, I must say. This is my all-time favorite romance, and to see it end is so sad! I loved the epilogue, though. It ended in a great place. Fantastic!
Author's Response: I\'m glad you liked it. I didn\'t want to disappoint the people who have waited for several months. Thanks for reading and for all of your reviews!
Date: 11/10/06 Title: Chapter 20: Cliché
I was just rereading this story and thought I'd tell you AGAIN how incredibly excellent it is. Oliver is an idiot, and Laura is an idiot, but I identify because I am also a stubborn, prideful idiot and am happy that there are other stubborn prideful idiots in the world that can have such a fantastic romance! (And that was a run-on if I ever saw one, but hey, it's a holiday.) Can't wait for the epilogue- this is definetely my favorite romance on the site, if not my favorite story!
Author's Response: I\'m glad you like the story enough to read it again! Let\'s just hope that we idiots in the real world can have fantastic romances. ;-)
The rough draft of the epilogue is so close to finished it\'s driving me crazy! Shouldn\'t be much longer before the whole story is finished.
Date: 08/20/06 Title: Chapter 20: Cliché
I started reading this story around five o'clock this evening, and it's now nine o'clock, with only an hours break or so to eat and attempt some homework. This was a truly excellent story. Truly. I identify with Laura in ways that I've never identified with an original character before, including the ones that I've written myself and put some of my own personality into. I've fallen in love with Oliver, and having Laura love him is perfect, just perfect. You carried the plot excellently from beginning to end. The conversations were written better than any I've read in any story online, any site. This story, of all the ones I've read, truly seemed the most real. I almost wish that I had started reading this when it wasn't really finished, like it is now, but in a story like this it's about a trillion times better to read it like this than to not read it at all. I was skeptical about Dan at first, but you really made it work. And for somebody like me, who divides her time between identifying with Percy and hating him, the pompous git, you really characterized him perfectly, because in the story I was STILL dividing my time between identifying with him and hating because he was a pompous git. I really can't think of anything you need to fix, because this story is one of the best I've ever read in fanfiction. 100000/10.

Author's Response: Thanks so very much for the review! It\'s definitely one of the nicest I\'ve received. I\'m thrilled that you found the story believable, especially Laura\'s character. And I\'m even happier that there\'s someone else out there who can identify with Percy Weasley! I definitely understand why you were skeptical about Dan; in canon, there almost certainly wasn\'t a Weasley brother we don\'t know about. I\'m glad that you gave the story a chance anyway. :-)
Thanks once again for your review!
Curse of the Reapers by deanine
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •
Summary: A different sort of alternate universe... It is a world under the thumb of an ancient emperor. Muggle society has been oppressed beyond recognition. Wizards rule over all, their only laws defined by power. This is the story of a rebellion, a family, a traitor, and the long road that leads home at last.
Date: 08/30/06 Title: Chapter 18: Connections
what a great chapter! Millicent and Neville... what a match. Great characterization as always, of course, and I particularly enjoyed reading Hermione and Lily. Keep up the great work!
Author's Response: hehehe, yeah, a couple made in heaven. Thanks for the review! :)
Date: 09/28/06 Title: Chapter 19: Repercussions
I just have one question- why didn't you make this into a normal fantasy story, sell it for a million dollars, and eventually have a Reapers movie? Brilliant story once again... keep updating!
Author's Response: *whispers* Because I\'m not that good at writing.
Date: 03/18/06 Title: Chapter 15: Rat in a Trap
I can't believe this story doesn't have a million reviews already with every fanfiction reader and/or writer in the fandom banging down your (new) front door and insisting you hurry up with your next chapter. I've been reading fanfiction for three or four years now, and this is, quite simply, one of the best fanfictions I have ever read. Its certainly the best fanfiction on MNFF. The idea is so amazing I can't even begin to imagine how you could have possibly come up with it. I discovered the story last night and have read it straight through, stopping only briefly to eat and sleep. Despite the nightmares I will undoubteldy have tonight about faces with black streaks and glowing red eyes this has so far been one of my most enjoyable experiences in fanfiction. Keep up the absolutely excellent work!
Author's Response: *blush* I'm very proud of my 129 reviews :) :) Thank you so much for the kind review. You have swelled my head terribly. Peace!
Date: 02/26/07 Title: Chapter 20: A Watched Pot
wow! Fantastic. Absolutely fantastic. I loved the George plot line- just... wow. And I promise, no matter what the next chapter is like, no pitchforks.
Author's Response: You say that now, but when a catharsis chapter comes your way, if I mess it up, there will be an angry mob. Thanks for the kind review dear.
Date: 10/31/06 Title: None
aw, so sweet! I really enjoyed that. Ron was characterized well, and that's not something many people manage to do well. Keep up the great work!
Author's Response: Thank you. =D
Everywhere Else Is Full by saveginny417
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: Sure, the tales of the Trio are great, and I'm not denying it. But what happens after the end of their story? Death, deception, and disagreements, to name a few things. Join Cora Potter, along with her best friends Olivia and Drew, during their first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry- and I can guarantee that you will never see the HP universe the same way again.
Chapter eleven is being painfully slow, isn't it? I promise to have it done by the time the queue reopens!
Date: 04/28/06 Title: Chapter 6: Quidditch for the Ages
You know what made my day yesterday? Opening my email account and having an email saying 'One of your favorites has been updated! Chapter Six has been added to Everywhere Else is Full.' I swear, my heart leaped. I was definetely expecting a fantastic next chapter to a fantastic story, and I definetely got it. I loved the way the team of EEIF's time period reflects the team of the trio's age- especially those beaters mumbling along with Wood's speech! And it was absolutely perfect the way you put olivia on the team. Alot of authors would have automatically have her get the spot immediately, but that would have been completely unrealistic- its nearly impossible a first year who'd only been flying a few months would be able to beat a seventh year. But it is plausible that she could beat a third year, and the way you wrote it added to the suspense. My heart lifted in anticipation as she was chosen for the final three, and then sunk when she lost. But when Xavier ran into a goalpost... I burst out laughing. Especially with the beater's comment. "we lose more chasers that way..." Best. Line. YET. And Drew? Really, what can I say about Drew. You remember how much I love Drew from my other reviews? Well, my love has now grown so much that I am declaring myself an official Drew fangirl. I would have been up there discussing Peter's sword with him, if I could. He might be the best OC I've ever read, to tell you the truth. In fact, you know what? I'm not going to stop at just being a Drew fangirl. I'm now officially a saveginny417 fangirl, because it is my opinion that you are writing the best story on MNFF.
Author's Response: You know what made my day today? checking my review page and reading that. I seriously think that\'s the nicest thing I\'ve heard in a long time... \"But, since I left my bugle home I simply have to say thank you very very very much!\" I heard that song somewhere...Xavier\'s the Cormac McLaggen of EEIF. I don\'t think he\'ll be returning anytime soon... :)
Date: 10/23/06 Title: Chapter 8: Celebrations and Consequences
forever to update? yes. worth it? Definetely! What happened to Drew, though? He seemed so... normal. Oh well, he was still cool. I particularly enjoyed the whole Skylar bird thing. And I find it funny that his name is SKYlar. I know, I know. And the Naoh/Liz exchange (whoever the heck they are) was the funniest part of the chapter! Great work once again- update!
Author's Response: I know, Drew didn\'t have much to do in this chapter. beleive it or not, this whole chapter was mostly transition... yes, his name is Skylar. and that was actually not intentional. it started out as Skander or something, but Skylar just...fit better. everyone seems to like Noah and Liz, so perhaps they will have recurring roles... thanks for the review,and for sticking with it! BTW, Joe says hi...
