Well, hey there!
I've been on MFF since 2006. I know, that's a long time. I used to be pretty involved and sadly, life took over and I forgot about MFF. Recently, I've come back from my five year hiatus and I'm in the process of finishing "Man in the Mask" and started a new chapter story called "What to Expect When You're Expecting: A Wizard's Guide." So, stay tuned for updates. xo MJ
Man in the Mask Updates:
Chapter Four: Posted! 1/6/16
Chapter Five: Writing
What to Expect When You're Expecting: A Wizard's Guide
Chapter One: Posted 1/15/16
Chapter Two: Writing
FAQs
How many chapters are left in MitM?
I think it's safe to say that I have at least three more chapters to write. We'll see how it goes though. Maybe there will be less. Maybe there will be more.
How many chapters will WtEWYWG be?
I'm thinking it'll be around five or six chapters. I'm not sure yet.
When will the next update be?
Hopefully, it'll be sooner than later. I'm a crazy busy college student so sometimes homework and work trump MFF.
Have more questions that aren't answered? Feel free to email me! xo MJ

(I hate getting bribed.) I really like this. Great begining to a story. Good job! I can't wait to read the next chapter.
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I love reviews too much!!! :)
Girl power rocks! Go Ginny!
Ahhhh!!!! Scary ending!
I've read this before! Are you a member of SIEY? I swear, I read this on that site! Holy cow!
Author's Response: I\'m not a member nor have I been on that site...What is it?? I hope no one is copying my work!!!! Yes, Ginny is a willful girl full of spirit...She\'s a favorite of mine!
Wow! Great story! Can't wait to read more.
Way on my favorites!
MJ
Author's Response: YEAH!!! I LOVE reviews like this. I\'m a favorite? My life is complete...lol
No, I was wrong. It's not on siye. Siey is a Harry and Ginny fan fiction site: http://www.siye.co.uk/siye/index.php
Good site for more fan fiction! I really like this story. I think I read it once and forgot to finish it. So, sorry for the worries. *goes off and finishes reading the fiction*
Author's Response: You\'re fine! I\'ll have to check that site out! Thanks for all of the reviews! I love them!
Wow! That's a great fic! Really creepy at the begining of the story! Good job! =)
Author's Response: my dreams scare me sometimes...especially when orlando bloom inst in them to protect me
This is the best fanfic I've ever, ever have read. I've reviewed over 300 stories and this one has got to be the best one I've read. "Remember, Harry, Mummy loves you," *tear* ~MJ
*SIts and stares stupidly at computer, waiting for the story. Gets up and pops popcorn.* "Do you want some?" She asks. Still staring stupidly at computer waiting for the mods.
It's going to be here any min.
do NOT give up HOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Author's Response: pop corn is my favourite comfort food! You read my mind! I was planning on eating some pop corn with a huge glass of chocolate milk when this chapter is finally up. I know it\'s an unusual combination but the sweet balances the salty of the pop corn. So, yes, please, I\'ll have some pop corn! yummy!
That was so powerful. My eyes are filling up with tears! I'm so sad. Amazing chapter! I love it! I'm so glad how this turned out! Good job! How many more chapters?
Author's Response: This was the last one, so no more chapters... thank you for the very nice review! I might write an epilogue or a short complementary story in some time but that remains to be decided. I\'m really glad you liked the story, though!
Hey!
Are you going to be writing anymore stories? I hope so, cause I love your two stories that are up.
MJ
Author's Response: A new one-shot is currently in the hands of my beta. It\'s quite different from this one and I\'m still a little confuse. I won\'t elaborate here. So, unless there\'s a mojor problem, I should submit it to the queue relatively soon. Hope you\'ll read it (and like it too!).
I was re-reading this fiction for the 100th time or so and I still am a HUGE fan of it. I remember when the first few chapters where still being posted and I was reviewing (with a different pen name/user name or A.K.A.: Hermionetonks), I just couldn't wait for the updates. But now it's over and I'm so sad. So I had to write my own Hr/R fiction and I did! All thanks to you! Thanks for writing this fiction and for my first Hr/R fiction! ~MJ
Author's Response: I don\'t know if you realize it but this is one of the very nicest thing you could tell me. The fact that you think that this story is worth reading twice (or more!) is such a nice thing to hear, because sometime you read a story and you think \'this is good\' and you kind of just forget about it and never go back... So, thank you so so so much. *gives you a bone crushing hug* And I\'ll be sure to check your story once I get some free time. Thanks again!
{my old user was Hermionetonks and _Just_Me_ I put the wrong email and lost my password.}
This chapter is very sentimental. I could really understand what Ron was going through and it wasn't corny at all. Not once! I really love this story and I can't WAIT to read the next chapter!
Author's Response: Glad to hear you\'re back. You\'ve gone from hermione to padfoot, he?! *smiles* I wonder why... Thanks for the great review. I\'m still working on last chapter and I will make my self-imposed deadline!
'Ello again! =)
Okay, well I have just a couple of suggestions.
1. Maybe try revising somethings that [possibly] don't flow with the story. [no idea if that's even on the right track..but..]
2. Get a beta-reader. I would suggest, Rainbow. GREAT beta. [Just happens to be mine.] She gives great suggestions when one writter is having a "brain fart" as I like to call them. LOL! =)
3. Save chapter six then open up a new page and try re-typing it. Might come up with some creative and new ideas! Give it a try! =+)
4. Don't give up and read Harry Potter for help! =)
Good luck and enjoy!

Author's Response: you managed to make me smile, that\'s already something today. I\'ve done about four rewrites of this chapter in the past 3 months so my guess is that... I don\'t know, maybe the idea just isn\'t that good. I\'m currently in the process of finding a new beta. the one I had before was great but he hasn\'t shown sign of life since he worked on chapter four. It is hard to find a good beta, and one who wants to work with a work in progress. I\'ll keep searching anyway. I\'ll work on it this weekend and see what I can come up with. Thanks for the tips!
This is something that should cheer you up:
1. When in doubt read Harry Potter Books
2. When bored to death read Harry Potter Books
3. When your about to pull your hair out from your Harry Potter fan fiction...Read Harry Potter books
4. When School has got the pitts in homework and stuff....Read Harry Potter
5. When you don't want to write...Read Harry Potter
Anyways...Don't you DARE give up! The next chapter WILL get accepeted by the MODS sooner or later. I know excatly how it feels. It took me forever to get my stories up too. Don't give up! DO NOT GIVE UP!!! Don't give up and Read The Harry Potter Books! =)
Good Luck and have a *\ WAND-erful /* day!
~MJ~
Author's Response: You made me laugh! Guess I\'ll go and read some HP book then. which one? *stares at the books lined up on the shelves* too hard! really don\'t know. I\'ll go swim a bit before, maybe it\'ll help me decide. thanks for you encouragements. I won\'t give up.
