    To answer your question, I prefer longer chapters with more plot. However its not really about what I or anyone else thinks. Its your personal preferance. To quote George Orwell regaurding the rules of writing "...Rule 10: ignore all the rules in order not to say something completly idotic..." (actually that was more of a paraphrase I can't recall the exact words right now).

    I really enjoyed this chapter, especially Harry temper tantrum at the end, it was so realistic and so cute! I'm eagerly looking foward to the next chapter.

    Author's Response: Hi!  Thanks for reviewing :)  And yay!...high five for realism.  lol.  I suppose I was just noticing a pattern with the whole chapter thing, and was just curious.  Anyway, so glad you enjoyed the chapter.

    Longer chapters are just wonderful! I thought it was great the way Snape told Harry to "put his head down". I used to hate being told that by a teacher as a little kid! Awesome chapter! I wish only that I could write some more of my own fic, but I'm having a real struggle with it at the moment! :-)

    Author's Response: Thank you!  Yeah, I thought that was a bit comical myself.  Hope you find time to update your story! :)

    In response to your question....I'll take any chapter I can get. There is something a bit unsatisfying about reading a short chapter, but it is agonizing to have to wait longer for a longer chapter. Does that make sense?

    Thanks so much for updating. I noticed that you had updated when I checked my e-mail earlier, but I was heading out the door so I couldn't take the time to read. Do you have any idea how hard that was? Dang this RL business for interfering with my reading fanfiction. LOL.

    I loved the chapter. Poor Harry is headed for a major meltdown with all that's going on. What in the world was the boy thinking when defying Snape like that? No sense of self-preservation. I was astounded that Snape handled that the way he did. I would have thought that he would have reacted to such outright defiance by wholly and completely flying off the handle. That man is just full of surprises.

    I'm so glad that Snape is finally able to realize that Harry is just a 12 year old boy with a lot on his shoulders. I think he may be the only adult that actually can see Harry for who he really is. I hope that Harry will realize that Snape is the perfect person to talk to about the voice he's hearing, but I have a feeling that it will take a complete meltdown on Harry's part before that happens.

    Thanks so much for the update. You rock! I truly can't wait for the next...

    Author's Response: Yes, it makes perfect sense, actually.rnrnThank YOU for reviewing! I love reading your positive feedback. It's awesome. Yes, Harry makes stupid decisions, but he's twelve. I know that I didn't always think twice about what I did when I was that young, you know? rnrnSnape is very stern, which is mostly all Harry sees at the moment; but we know different, don't we ;)rnrnA meltdown...hmmmm...we'll see... lol.rnrnThanks again for reading and reviewing. I really appreciate it!

    once again, lovely chapter! my fav line was:

    The trip to Lockhart’s office was, as always, a complete and utter waste of time

    hehe lockhart has always been one of my all time fav characters

    Author's Response:

    I'm glad you liked that line...lol.  I'm really not a fan of Lockhart in the books, but I actually like how Kenneth Branaugh (sp?) portrayed him in the movie.  Thanks for reading and reviewing!

    Longer, definately! I loved this chapter. Harry simmering and building up to a boil then defying Snape like that. Wow. Great story! I can't wait for the next chapter to find out how you get Harry out of this one.

    Author's Response: Thanks for the review!  I wanted there to be a reason for Harry's defiance, and as of now the poor kid has a lot that he's holding in.

    Question—do you like reading short chapters (say 1500-2500) words, or longer ones with more plot?

    definately the longer chapters. i always get so sad when the chapter is over because i want to keep reading and reading and reading

    Author's Response: Cool.  I enjoy reading longer chapters as well.  I just don't like it when authors ramble, and I hope I'm not doing that...lol.  Thanks for the fb!
