About me:

Hi, I'm Kim.  I live in Pennsylvania.  I have three children but two have grown and moved out.  One is still fairly young.  I've homeschooled the children most of their lives so I haven't worked in quite a few years.  I run a website called Spirit Talks where mediums meet and help others to hear from those who've passed.  We're on Hiatus right now as my web building software disappeared and none was included in my new computer's op system.     I love Harry Potter and the world of fanfiction associated with it.  Who knew there were so many talented and wonderfully imaginative people out there willing to give more life to characters who must rest for years between adventures?  I'm just glad there is!

    That was really sweet. I'm so glad Snape said what he did to Harry. It shocked me to the core but it was a good shock. I liked the trip to the burn ward, too. That was a good idea. Good chapter!

    Author's Response: I'm glad he said what he did too, though no one really expected it.  I'm glad you liked the trip to the burn ward - it seems to be getting mixed reviews ;)

When Harry finds an injured Snape on his doorstep and must hide him from the Dursleys, he has no idea that this very, very bad day will be the start of something good.

Harry and Snape are thrown together by annoying relatives, a series of strange dreams, and Voldemort's latest hunt for Harry, but their greatest challenge may well be surviving each other. This will be a long summer unless the two can find a way to work together. A slow-burn enemy-to-mentor story.

Alternate 6th summer (and part of the school year): post-OotP; ignores HBP and DH.

    Oh sometimes I just wanna smack Snape! Poor Harry must be going crazy with boredom and then has to slice up froggies in the middle of the night, sitting near Snape, to relieve it. Yuck!
    At least they both lived through it. But what's this about Lucius? I can't wait to find out that secret.

    Author's Response:

    Ooh, it would be fun to write a good Snape-smacking into the story...hmm... :)  Thanks for the review!


Title: Chapter 13: Chapter 13 - Harry's Wheezy 06 Aug 2007
Reviewer: KimSpiritTalks (Signed)
    Great chapter! I loved that Harry got to have some time with Ron to grouse about the Greasy Git. hehee, that was very satisfying, I'm sure. And the love from everyone who came to the order meeting made me feel great, too.

    Author's Response: Yeah, I think Harry was getting a bit lonely without his friends... Thanks for reviewing!

Title: Chapter 16: Chapter 16 - Visions of Sugar Plums 27 Aug 2007
Reviewer: KimSpiritTalks (Signed)
    Oh that was GOOD! Great chapter all around. Snape, Dumbledore and Harry were all excelelnt. I loved the last part where Harry realized he was living part of his dream. That's scary. This is developing really well.

    Author's Response: Thanks for the review! I'm glad you liked it!

Title: Chapter 17: Chapter 17 - The Second Prophecy 04 Sep 2007
Reviewer: KimSpiritTalks (Signed)
    Another amazing chapter. A new prophecy! Awesome idea. And to make it centered on Snape's loyalties, wow, what inspiration! I'm sooo looking forward to future chapters. Seer Harry, figure this out!

    Author's Response: I'm so glad you liked the prophecy!  I wrote it quite a while ago, actually, and had to dig through my notes to find it in time for this chapter. :)  Thanks for the review!

Title: Chapter 18: Chapter 18 - A Lesson in Being Slytherin 10 Sep 2007
Reviewer: KimSpiritTalks (Signed)
    Another really good chapter. I love how Snape had that tantrum when Harry didn't turn out to be the person he imagined he was. That was so funny and so easy to imagine him doing. I also loved him having Dobby check on him all the time then tearing in when Dobby reported his "death". That was great!

    Author's Response:

    Snape was worried. He'd never admit it to you himself, so I'll confide in you on his behalf. Crazy, out of his mind worried! :(

    Thanks for the review!


Title: Chapter 19: Chapter 19 - Squinting at Snape 17 Sep 2007
Reviewer: KimSpiritTalks (Signed)
    I really loved the squinting session but nothing could top that last sentence! Great chapter!

    Author's Response:

    Thank you!


Sequel to Forlorn Hope and Forlorn Dream. "But here they stand, against my very wish, and push me toward my goal. Not with fists or words or thoughts, but by their very hopes and dreams, they call for me to live." Horris

Reviewer: KimSpiritTalks (Signed)
    Very interesting stories. I'm sorry to have caught up with you, I'd love to see more. I miss Harry/Horris terribly. And Durmstrang? Oh the world is changing! That stint in his old life as Harry with Snape being evil was awful. Not awful writing, but the idea of his dad hating him and turning him over to Volemort was awful. But now where is he? What a mess. I can't wait for updates to see how this all sorts out.

Snape has to acquire an heir. He has little choice in the matter and decides to exact his own little revenge by taking on a muggle heir… Or so he thinks…

    I love this story! I'll be anxiously awaiting updates, for sure. You not only have a good idea but you write well. Unfortunately that's an all too uncommon combination. Write quickly, this could be fun!

James Potter did something unforgiveable and nobody knew about it... until now. What will the knowledge of this sin do to Severus and his perfectly (until now) isolated life?

    I'm so glad I finally read your story. I was passing it over in the "recent" section because I thought it was a story about James and his peers. I didn't realize what I was missing. It's a great story, I am really enjoying it. I feel so dumb for passing it up. Now I can't wait for more!

    Author's Response:

    *L* I do that alot. There are several stories that I skipped over because of the summary or title... but then ya get bored and desperate for a read and you start reading what you skipped and then it's like 'omg'. I'm glad you began to read my story and I hope you enjoy what is to come in the future.
