Hello! Great to see you! That's right, I can see you right now. Turn around...
Here's some stuff about me that might interest you (or cause you to call an institute on my behalf. Either way is fun for me!)
Some sayings I either made up or love: 'Yeah I ship Harry/Hermione. It's called a friendship.' ~Me as far as I know. 'Life is like a box of chocolates: nutty and the rich eat you alive' ~also me. I also love some Ancient Chinese Proverbs, especially the funny ones. Unfortunately I can't remember any. Watch this space!
Fave Characters: Ginny and Neville (but not as a pairing) Love Dobby too, and want to know more about Bellatrix (she seems like an interesting character)
Fave Book: Don't make me choose! Who wrote this anyway? Oh, right, I did...
Shippings: Harry/Ginny (otp), Ron/Hermione,
Remus/Tonks, Neville/Luna (I know they'll never be together, but I think they're cute together. Sane and, um... Luna) If Harry dies I will ship Ginny/Neville and if Luna and Ginny die Harry/Luna would be okay. I'm also a fan of Ginny/Viktor (don't ask)
House I would be in: I would love to be in Ravenclaw, but I'm a procrastinater and would end up in Slytherin. I'm cunning and very sneaky. I'll tell you if I ever do a test.
Book 7 theories: I heard this awesome one about Neville being the Chosen One, but after consideration I've decided that the entire prophecy is based on choices, and ol' Volders chose Harry. Plus Dobby and the Giant Squid will become a item, but who doesn't know that.
About my stories:
Worse Than Anything Else: I've actually written seven chapters, but only three are up so far. The evil computer deleted a lot of chapters, so it's back to about five.
Dark/Angsty: I'm about halfway through it! I put it aside for the time being it to start my songfic though. Expect some twists and major shipping.
Songfic: It's set to Evermore's Light Surrounding You. Every time I heard that song it reminded me of Harry Potter (specifically Harry/Ginny) so now I'm writing to it. It's finished, and is in the process of being Beta-ed!
Humour: It's six pages long, and I'm about 3/4 of the way through! It's called Poetic Justice, and that title makes a lot of sense if you read it.
Also, I'm jshedden on the Beta Boards if anyone feels like PM-ing me.
Looking forward to Deathly Hallows and the OOTP video game,
Jess.
Ps. Sorry OOTP movie. I mean, I'll love you and everything, but I love the games more. Plus the book is a zillion times more important

I Still Believe by theMarauders
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: *Post HBP* Harry's life becomes more and more complicated as time passes. A certain person continues to bother Harry's heart, but he knows what is best. If Voldemort knew...she could get hurt. Harry leaves her and goes on to finally defeat Voldemort. But, not everything is okay after the final battle. He won't wake up. But, there's is something much worse. Will she stay by him faithfully or will it be too much?
Excerpt: Harry still could not believe that Dumbledore was dead. Every time the thought came to his mind, Harry always tried to think of something else. But then his mind would normally shift to Ginny and he’d rather think about Dumbledore than ponder his feelings on her again. Why does everything have to be so complicated? Harry thought as he tried hard to fall back asleep.
*wow guys...i'm so sorry i havent updated in a while. im not going to make excuses other than say that my computer with the story on it broke--so i'm rewriting the last few chapters. SORRY FOR THE DELAY AND THANK YOU TO ALL MY LOYAL READERS!*
Date: 01/25/07 Title: Chapter 11: The Make-Up and Break-Up
Great chapter! I think Ginny's reaction was very Ginny. She thinks she isn't good enough for him, because she is very stubborn. *Mentally stores idea for future stealing* Anyhoo, love the story, I discovered it today, read the 11 chapters and added it to my favourites.
Not Another Mary Sue Fic! by Air Elemental
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: A Mary Sue Parody fic! Infinity Babe has moved from New York to Hogwarts with her 'oh-so-evil' parents. Can Harry and the gang stop her from warping canon? Not to be taken seriously. Rated PG-13 for a reason. Scriptfic.
Date: 07/24/07 Title: Chapter 3: Act Three
*Giggles girlishly* Teehee, that made my day! Especially after some Harry Potter unhappiness of late. Mary Sues are very funny when used correctly, and turning it into a script was genius. It's true that a lot of girls add themselves to stories and make Harry fall in love with them. In fact, my story is kind of doing that, except my chick's supposed to be hated. Thanks for the smiles!
Promises by KneazleWeazl
Rated: Professors •Summary: After taking a year off from Hogwarts, Harry, Ron, and Hermione have returned with the completed task of destroying all horcrux's, but sadly Voldemort is still alive. And also sadly, Harry and Ginny are still split up. What will it take to get those two back together? And what will be the consequences of a kiss gone too far? R rating for the first chapter... so far.
Please do not leave spam reviews! I do not want to get my story deleted!
Chapter 5 'All's Well That Ends Well... Or Maybe Not' is up!
Thanks to whoever fixed my word count!.
Date: 01/24/07 Title: Chapter 3: And So it Begins
And so it begins... haha, that's the name of the chapter! I used it because it makes sense, and so did you! Great minds think alike. 9.99999/10
Author's Response: :) Thank you. I\'m so happy this got approved! YAY!
Harry Potter and the Magical Myths by nuw255
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: A man from Interpol comes to question Harry Potter as part of a murder investigation. How will Harry react? And how will this affect his search for Lord Voldemort’s Horcruxes? Plus, the question we all want answered: What will happen with Ginny?
This story picks up immediately after HBP, and is very slightly AU. But hey, aren’t they all?
Date: 01/28/07 Title: Chapter 20: Chapter 20: The Patronus Charm
Woo, go Patronuses! I thought the otter represented Ron, but I never made the Otter/Otter st. Catchpole connection. I was just thinking about weasels. Ron's Patronus still confuses me though. Something relatively small, intelligent and scary at times... Hermione.
Oh, and great chapter.
Author's Response: Thank you very much! I\'ve been stumped by Ron\'s Patronus for quite some time as well, but you\'re the second reviewer to suggest that it might represent Hermione, and I have to admit you\'ve got a pretty good argument! I wish I\'d thought of it a long time ago, and I could have included it in this chapter. Oh well; maybe I\'ll find an opportunity to slip it in later on. :-)
Date: 01/08/07 Title: Chapter 17: Chapter 17: Rat in a Maze
Fantastic as always. Update soon please.
Author's Response: Thank you. I\'ll update as soon as I can.
Date: 04/01/07 Title: Chapter 28: Chapter 28: Christmas and a Plan
Oh my goody goodness. I just read about six chapters of this in one go. How can I summarise six chapters into a little review. Easy: love it. Loved the start, loving the middle, and will love the end. Now, to see what other stories I need to catch up on...
Author's Response: Yay! Thank you so very much. I\'m really glad you\'re enjoying the story.
Date: 02/11/07 Title: Chapter 22: Chapter 22: Halloween
Yay, they're married! You write like a girl, and i mean that in the most flattering way possible. I mean, JKR is female (supposedly, lol) and look how well she does. Another fantubulous chapter. I think I added you to my fave authors, I'll go check.
Author's Response: Thank you so much. When writing romance, at least, I think writing like a girl has to be a compliment. I mean, it\'s not like saying, \"You throw a baseball like a girl,\" or anything, right? ;-)
Realizing It's Never Too Late by Gryffindor Girl
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: After taking different paths a couple of years ago, Ron and Hermione find each other again, both of them wondering if their separation was a mistake. This applies especially to Hermione, who is leading an empty, unhappy life next to her fiance.
UPDATE (12/7/11): Newest chapter posted. Let us hope next one doesn't take me a year.
Date: 04/12/07 Title: Chapter 7: Appointments and Engagements
As always, i love this story. I don't mind the whole Hermione/Michael thing. You know why? Easy: it's placed in the R/Hr and H/G section. Therefore, it won't last. Now that my detective work is over, let me enlighten you on my more 'eccentric' theories with this story:
*Michael's mother is actually Ron with polyjuice potion
*Not only is Michael having an affair with his secretary, but with Anne, Patricia and Fred and George
*The wedding will be stopped by giant sporks.
If you read through that and didn't think I was insane, I applaud you.
Author's Response: This is one of the best reviews I have read in a while! LOL
Storm of Darkness by dashofmagic
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: After the long fight, after all of their hard work, it is over. Voldemort has triumphed, and the Wizarding world has been thrown into darkness. Ginny is the servant of the Malfoys, her free will sucked away from her. Ron is forced to join the Death Eaters, threatened with his family's lives. Hermione is taken prisoner by creatures of the night. But, far away, weak and barely alive, is the one who can pull them out of the storm...if love can survive the challenge.
Date: 01/22/07 Title: Chapter 13: Prisoners of War
What's she all smiley about? That can't be good. Oh well, they'll all survive. Won't they?
Date: 02/11/07 Title: Chapter 15: Now, You Die
*Almost cries* He's dead! Or is he? I dunno, I'm confused, I thought he just got married. No, that's in the fic I read before this. Anyhoo, love the cliffies!
Harry Potter, the Half-Blood Prince and Mary-Sue by Valentinia
Rated: 1st-2nd Years •Summary: What if Ginny hadn't been there after Harry won his Quidditch game? In his euphoria, Harry would have fallen for someone else, of course. And who could that be but the beautiful foreign exchange student, Mary-Sue!
A Mary Sue parody!
Warning: Extreme OOCness follows. All of the warnings this fic has are based on not-to-be-taken-seriously situations!
Date: 06/08/07 Title: Chapter 9: Chapter 8: The Final Battle
*sigh* another awesome humour fic over. Now what will I read? The newspaper? THE NEWSPAPER'S NOT FUNNY! Okay, that was weird. Don't mind my crazy other half, who leaves her caps lock on. We're trying to find her help. Great fic, fantastically original unoriginal Final Battle. Ronnikins was left out though, and I do love him :(
Author's Response: Wow, a lot of people have been commenting on Ron... :). As for the newspaper... well... there\'s always the comics, right? :D Thanks for reading and reviewing my fic!
Date: 01/24/07 Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 5: Forbidden Love
Tee hee, Mary Sue fics are so funny! (but only when on purpose) *crosses fingers for an update* 9.9999999/10
Author's Response: :D Thanks! I\'ll update soon, I promise... *grins sheepishly*
When Darkness Did Surround Us by MagEd
Rated: 6th-7th Years •Summary: 2007 QSQ Awards Runner-up for Best Post-Hogwarts
Petunia Dursley is enjoying dinner with her family when someone starts pounding on the door. Ready to tell them off for being so rude and refusing to leave when they didn't answer at first, Petunia opens the door to have a baby shoved into her arms and told she is his only family. Years after the great Harry Potter defeated Voldemort, Death Eaters have risen to power and taken over Hogsmeade, Hogwarts, and even the Ministry of Magic. Their marriages announced invalid, their children in danger and their lives hanging by a thread, the heroes of the war with Voldemort must once again take a stand against evil.
H/G and R/Hr
(pre-Deathly Hallows)
*Completed*
*Quote from The Epilogue*
Suddenly Harry was kissing her as if he couldn’t resist the temptation. There was a kind of frenzy to the kiss at first, a kind of desperate need, but it melted into something soft and sweet and gentle, a promise of a future when kisses would never be limited. When they broke apart he rested his forehead on hers, sprinkling a few affectionate butterfly kisses across her face. “I love you,” he murmured.
Date: 04/27/07 Title: Chapter 10: The End of The World as We Know It
Good chapter. I thought she might be preggers (I'm not sure if that's slang only us Aussies use, but it means pregnant) Bubbles is fun, and she has the name of my favourite Powerpuff girl! Is this one of those stories that will go on for years and James saves the world, or will it be ol' scarhead again? Either way, it works! Update soon!
Author's Response: The current plan is not to have James save the world, but it will progress far into the future . . . well, you\'ll see! Bubbles was fun to write as well, I\'m glad you liked her (and her name!) While I\'ve never heard the term preggers outside of mugglenet fanfiction, I have seen it before in reviews. Thanks for the review!
Date: 07/07/07 Title: Chapter 11: The Schemes We Dream
Wow, there was like a million cliffhangers in that chapter. Surely that's a record, right? Ron could be dead, Tonks and McGonagall are dead or captured or something, Ginny could be ...eww... with Draco, Bill's probably dead. Pleasant chapter :)
Author's Response: Yeah, very happy! And it probably is a record! Thanks for the review.
Uncle Fred Calls Him Dick by MagEd
Rated: 6th-7th Years •
Summary: 2008 QSQ Awards Runner-up for Best Post-Hogwarts
Harry defeated Voldemort. Harry married Ginny. Harry and Ginny had five children. Harry disappeared. My name is Lily Potter, and this is the story of what happened when my father returned after six years missing to find my mother about to re-marry. This is the story of myself, my crazy family, and most of all, this is the story of my parents and the man who tried to come between them. (pre-Deathly Hallows)
*Completed*
"Oh, I can so die happy now!" -Sirius Potter
Date: 02/16/07 Title: Chapter 9: Chapter 9: Grandma Says Talking is the Trick
Yay, an update! Every time you update I get two emails, you must be special...
That Dick is evil. Is he a Death Eater? That chapter makes me think he is. Anyhoo, fantastic chapter!
Author's Response: I would tell you the answer except . . . well, that would ruin it. So how about I just say thanks for the review?
Date: 06/15/07 Title: Chapter 13: Chapter 13: Lily's Perfect Ending
This will probably be the shortest review you'll get, but I can't be bothered typing too much (no matter how much I'd like to type seven million words) I though Ron died! Most people thought it was Lily, but there I was, worrying if Ronnikins was okay! Seven kids, wow. Wouldn't it be funny if they ended up with thirteen? Cheaper by the bakers dozen! Not only will the team be made up of Weasleys and Potter exclusively, but the reserves, Prefects, Head Boy/Girl and a few Ravenclaw players (even if they're all in Gryffindor) What do you know, this was a long review after all.
I would say sequel but meh, you'd probably give them a million more kids and make Lily get married. Not that's a bad thing though. If you make a Lily in the future thing, can I suggest pairing her up with Zacharias Smith's son? You're now being added to my favourite authors list, an honour that had been bestowed on only about five people. It's not that great, but it comes from the heart (and I get to click a little button!)
Loved it but leaving it!
Jess
Author's Response: This is a long review, I applaud you! You thought it was Ron? Well that\'s new! :) You\'re right about a sequel, I probably would give them a million more kids! -- What can I say, I like kids! And as for being added to your favorite authors, it is that great! Thanks for the review and for clicking the favorite author button!
A Past Reclaimed by nuw255
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary: Sequel to A Stolen Past. Please read that story first, as this one really won’t make sense if you don’t.
Harry Potter has rejoined the Wizarding world after a year-long absence, but still has no memory of his time at Hogwarts. Will he ever get his memory back? Will he be able to pass his classes without it? And most importantly, will he ever be able to defeat Lord Voldemort? Read on as the last of the mysteries introduced in A Stolen Past are finally revealed.
This is a story of friendship and mystery, with a healthy dose of H/G thrown in for good measure.
Date: 01/18/07 Title: Chapter 18: Chapter 18: Approval and Disapproval
Another great chapter. I always thought Ron was overprotective, but would probably be ok with Harry dating Ginny. Just no public affection. Percy, Percy, Percy. What are we to do with you? You're an odd Weasley, that's for sure.
Hoping for another quick update.
Author's Response: Haha! Couldn\'t have said it better myself. I really need to find some time to write; you guys are catching up with what I have pre-written. 0_o
Date: 02/15/07 Title: Chapter 24: Chapter 24: Private Lessons
Two chapters! You (and the mods) love us. Smiling the whole way through, but that may have been due to the excess amount of sugar I had today. Ginny was lucky her splinching wasn't more... embarassing. Great chapters, and I'll leave you with a little advice (for no reason whatsoever) Smile... it confuses people
Author's Response: I\'m glad you enjoyed the chapters so much. Hopefully the Valentine\'s Day one will be approved shortly. About your advice: you\'re absolutely correct. Smiling does confuse people at times! :-)
Date: 01/29/07 Title: Chapter 20: Chapter 20: A Secret Revealed
“I could never push you away,” he murmured. “I’d go crazy.” -Listen to the fanfic version of yourself, JK's Harry.
Great chapter (as usual). I'm glad he told them about the Prophecy. This is the only pre-HBP story I can read and like, so awesome job!
Author's Response: Thanks so much! It took me a minute to understand your first paragraph there, but when I got it I laughed out loud. \"Amen!\" is all I can say. I\'m glad you can enjoy this story even though it\'s pre-HBP. Sometimes I think I like the pre-HBP stories better, just because they\'re a nice break from the typical Horcrux hunt stories. Thanks for the review!
Harry Potter and Beyond The Veil by tear_away

Date: 01/22/07 Title: Chapter 3: Many Meetings
Excellent chapter! I'm adding this story to my favourites. Please update soon (no pressure or anything)
Author's Response: I will try to update by next sunday, although next week i start my university placement at a magazine/newspaper, so i will be busy.
