Reviews For Hang a Shining Star
I've never been able to understand some folks objections to HP. It seems to me to be a treasure trove for morality tales, object lessons, and examples of biblical truthes in modern living. And I have always seen Severus as a type of Saul/ Paul. This was the best Christmas present I've recieved so far. Thanks again. Author's Response: Wow! What a massive compliment! THANK YOU!!! (I'll feel a bit like Snape, waking up every Christmas to be a part of your celebration! ;-D) // I think fanatical people blindly believe what is preached to them by others who also haven't bothered to investigate HP firsthand-- my aunt is one of the fanatics, and I have NOT told her I'm writing fanfiction, since she warned me that I should not be reading the books or watching the films. I believe the objections come from the verse "Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live." (I don't know where that is located; I don't play scripture ping pong, if you know what I mean!) If JKR had called her characters "magicians", probably nobody would have batted an eye. But witches and wizards-- oh, boy. But I absolutely agree with your assessment of the texts! // Merry Christmas! And thanks again!
Author's Response: You're welcome! Would you believe I actually wrote Chap 1 last December, and I didn't write Chap 2 until this November? I had it all planned in detail, but I didn't finish the story for some reason. I'm really glad you liked it-- now I know my writing was time well spent! Thanks so much for the review! :-)
Author's Response: Thanks!
Author's Response: Thank you so much for letting me know! I always keep second guessing myself about how readers will react to a story, so it really helps to hear from people like you! ;-)
Author's Response: As in, "Mirror, mirror on the wall..." ? HAA! I'd never even thought of that! Tho' now that you mention it, it seems the sort of thing that... (>Ooohhhh! Plot BUNNY! Plot BUNNY!!! Something for the back burner! I may get back to you on that! Hee!!!<) Glad you liked "Star", & thanks so much for the review! :-)
Author's Response: I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the story! And many thanks for taking the time to review BOTH chapters! Now, all I need to make my Christmas complete is Sev with a BIG RED BOW...!
Author's Response: Hee! Yes! Both you and Harry will have your questions answered in Chapter 2!
Author's Response: Thank you so much for letting me know! That's what writers love to hear! Merry Christmas! :-D
Author's Response: You might find it hard to believe, but there were several places in this story that had me crying as I was WRITING it by hand! Later, I found myself tearing up again as I typed it on the library computer! I'd wondered if I was really losing it! Thanks for letting me know that YOU also found the story so emotionally moving! *hands over a purse pack of tissues* ;-)
Author's Response: It might not have been ON Christmas, but the message is the reason BEHIND Christmas! Snape was emphasizing to Harry that Wizards are included, too, when he quoted from John. I'm so glad you liked the story! Thank YOU for reading and reviewing! *passes tissues* ;-) |
