Reviews For Reading the Signs
"2 or 3 nights a week" First off, you use the same phrase at least three times. Substitute "a few nights" "a couple" "several" etc. Additionally, NEVER EVER use numerals in literature. Spell it out. It's not that hard. Author's Response: "Additionally, NEVER EVER use numerals in literature. Spell it out. It's not that hard." I wasn't going to respond to this at first, as I'm not sure there's a need to use that tone. However... If you read the rest of the story, you can see that the majority of the time I follow that rule. This was just a simple slip up on my part, not because "it's that hard". There was no need to be so condescending about it. As for the others, duly noted on the repetition, I'll watch out for that in the future, and thanks for the feedback on the characterization.
Plus I don't want to shout (which incidentally is impossible over the internet but let's suspend our disbelief for a second) but I was totally like I KNEW IT BIATCH when Snape was like, oh yeeah, I DID visit the Dursleys, didn't I ... XD SNAPEY - you can't hide anything from us XD Author's Response: Oops, did he forget to mention that little detail? Well, that’s Snape for you. He doesn’t do these things for attention, he does them for justice – something he has a strong sense of. It’s just too bad there’s Wizarding Law Enforcement, because I would have had him do much worse things to Dursley.
Author's Response: Awww, thanks! As to how I write this way -- I have no idea, I just always have :)
Author's Response: I'm definitely trying to keep the gist of the plot of PS, but this is obviously quite the AU :) I'm really glad you enjoyed it, and the next chapter is now up!
Ok, my coworkers are really wondering at my sanity now... that sentance is so Snape I couldn't quit laughing. I almost could hear him say it, and imaging the look on McGonnagal's face didn't help with the giggle fit! Author's Response: I'm glad you liked it so much. It was very much a spur of the moment addition. Thanks for the review!
Author's Response: Next chapter is likely up in the next few days. Thanks for the review!
Author's Response: Things are getting there for Harry, although there will be a few bumps in the road...
Thanks for the review! |
