Author's Response: Thanks Snapegirl! Glad you enjoyed it!
Author's Response: Thank you Alexis, Harry is great character to play with, lol. I had fun making him do that to Draco, lol.
Interesting set-up; do it your way, it's your story. Author's Response: Thanks, sorry about all the black-haired teen things. Just try to ignore them, it's one of the few ways I can let people know I'm talking about Harry. Thanks for reviewing!
Author's Response: Lol, please don't scream! I'll try to keep black-haired teen at a miniumum. Thank you for reviewing!
I see absolutely nothing wrong with your story or plot so far. You are NOT torturing Harry. This is a very tame fic of its type (Harry dealing with his destiny, etc.), in terms of angst and emotional torture. There is frustration, yes, but he is not being tormented by the tasks set to him. In fact, so far he is practically blithely sailing along. He isn't spending sleepless nights being tormented by horror shows of what will happen if he fails. And he hasn't given up; he still thinks it's possible to change the future... in fact he is determined to change it. I don't see how that's Harry-torture at all. Okay, so he's been set some hard tasks. Yes. Well, what about canon? Seemed pretty heavy stuff to me. Harry's always facing impossible odds, so that is nothing to whine about. Besides, how fun would a story be if his future self's only advice was "Eat more carrots. Harry, it'll help your eyesight. By the time you're my age you'll hardly need glasses at all."? His future self would hardly have come to warn him if the situation was not dire. Anyhow, you have a fine plot and don't let people dictate what you write. The only criticism you should take to heart is spelling/grammar, because that is something you have control over. Whether readers like or agree with your chosen plot is not in your control. How often you update is also not in your control, since real life should be a higher priority. Don't worry about losing readers -- they have a right to dislike your story and leave. Just as many will like it and stay. Take care. Author's Response: This review was very inspiring and uplifting Fw, thank you for taking the time to write it! I get really fed up with some people. I almost want to scream, "It's my story and I'll torture him all I want and there's nothing you can do about it!!" But that probably would not be receved really well, lol. It is supposed to be an angst fic, his future life is SO bad that he risks it all to come back and change it. That's not somthing small. I'm very happy that you seem to know where I'm coming from and that you don't think I'm a 'Harry torturer', lol. Thank you Fw, :) Scorpia
Author's Response: I want to read more stories with bonds that did not involve slash but I could not find any! Lol, so I made one. :) Thanks for reviewing!
Your story is quite good, but it is not at all the story your summary promises and this misrepresentation might be one of the underlying reasons why you've garnered some negative reviews. People who find the Harry/Draco schoolboy rivalry tedious won't be happy about having it appear out of nowhere in what was supposed to have been a story about Harry and Snape. On the other hand, there are undoubtedly Draco fans out there who have bypassed this story, not realizing that their favorite character is a major player. So do everyone a favor and make that description accurate! Author's Response: Yes I will. I tryed to the other day but then I looked and it did not do it for some reason, I may have to speak with Jan. Thanks for reviewing!
I'm wondering if part of your plot is for Harry to end up making more friends with students from other houses. Good story. Author's Response: No, making friends from other houses is not really apart of the plot but it's extra, :) Thanks for reviewing!
I loved this chapter Scorpia. I was laughing so hard when Harry dragged Malfoy thru the great hall. Keep up the good work, I can't wait to see what will happen next! :) -Elise Author's Response: Lol, I did not even think about MASH when I wrote it Elise. But maybe watching it for as long as I have been doing rubbed of on my writing, lol. Thanks for reviewing! |
