    This writing contest is both good and bad. Good because we are getting some awesome stories out of it, including yours. Bad because every single one of them NEEDS to be more than a one shot. I congratulate you on successfully getting back into writing!

    Author's Response: Thanks Shellie :-). It feels good to get back into it. I have started writing another chapter for my other story on here (Time to Choose), so I hope to have time to get that done soon and start on my submission for Round 2!

Hagrid finds a new hybrid and to Snape's horror, Harry is the best option for help.

    This is a cute little story that definitely could become a cute BIG story! I hope you continue it after the contest is over. I LOVE the baby snakes and them sounding like babies. If you could fix the weird formatting, more people would people review your story. I just noticed I had to slide the bar over to the right to find the review box. Others may be having the same problem.

    Author's Response:

    Thanks, Shellie.  Jan_AQ managed to fix it for me.  

     I enjoyed writing the different personalities for the three heads. I''m not sure about continuing it at this time, but I think it would be interesting to see the personalities of the basilisk head, the runespoor, and dun... dun... dun... the third head.  Is it also basilisk? Runespoor? Or something else? 


Five-year-old Harry has a delicious surprise for Severus, and Mr. Scarecrow is about to attend his first Halloween party ever.

    Urgh, I disagree that it doesn't need warnings. Reminds me of the story my Mom tells when she made her Dad a cake as a child and used salt instead of sugar. There were a few other errors but that was the biggie. You have a way with words, my stomach turned just READING your descriptions of what he made! But you are right, its a cute story. My grandpa at a slice of the cake my Mom made too. :)

    Author's Response: Hahaha~ I'm glad the reading experience was realistic enough to turn your stomach! I have had a few instances with strange culinary experiments myself, once as a child, I made a salad for my aunt and its main ingredients mostly consisted of onions, apples, cucumbers, tomatoes all chopped up, topped with a scary mixture of lemon/apple juice that had sugar AND salt in it and then served it leftover rice from my lunch...it was practically toxic :) Thanks for reading and have a nice day! P.S; went back and fixed any errors I could find, thank you!

One foggy Halloween day, the Dursley family visit a circus. Harry, left to his own devices, goes to a 'Spooky Tent' where, among other exhibits, he sees a cursed photograph. Is it fake? Or is the black-robed man in the photo really a living person, forever trapped in a photo?

    This story is really intriguing! I am looking forward to chapter 3. The photograph is an original idea I hadn't seen before.

    Author's Response: Thank you! I think I might have stolen the idea from the girl imprisoned in a painting in Roald Dahl's "Witches" - I found it very scary.

    This is really cute! Unfortunately it seems like you could add a whole lot more to this. lol Unfortunate for you of course, not us. The title is even great.

    Author's Response: Thanks, Shellie.  I guess it could.  I hadn't really thought beyond a one-shot but it seems you all have.  LOL......    Thanks!

It was happening again and there was nothing he could do to stop it. In the beginning, he’d been in denial. There was no way this could be happening. It was a fluke of circumstance. The fates were out to get him.

    This is off to a great start!

Harry Potter being sorted into Slytherin was the greatest surprise of his career. Having to pry the boy out of wardrobe not four hours later immediately topped that.

    You are an excellent writer. I am glad you are sharing your talent with us! This story begs to be made longer or at least to continue on from where you are. But it is complete as well.

Voldemort is on the rise and Harry's year just got a little more exciting. Under Dumbledore's order, Snape and Harry must now work together to teach the newly reformed DA. Will the two learn to work together? What secrets lurk in the shadows?

    This has a great start! I would like to see them realize though that the club needs to be open to anyone that wants to join. Considering its now part of the actual Defense class, its even more important.

No one on Privet Drive was surprised when the priest came to deliver last rights to the boy, but who was the strange man with the long white beard accompanying him? “Cancer” was what Agnes from Number 2 thought it was. “An eating disorder” was what Mary of Number 3 believed it to be. Whatever the case may be, Harry Potter had been taken to the hospital many times and was seen to only be getting worse.

    I LOVE medical stories, the more detailed the better. I would never have thought of combining it with vampires but it works well.

    Author's Response: I'm glad you're enjoying it! Really truly, I am!

Harry's sent reeling when he learns that Professor Snape is his bio dad, and if that were all he had to deal with, he'd probably be all right, but he's got werewolves, escaped convicts, a stubborn Dark Lord, and his own inner demons to deal with. Starts third year. Rating mostly for violence. Story deals with mental health, bigotry and child abuse. See more tags in Story Notes (Some are big spoilers so beware).

    Too much to unpack here for a detailed review. The Sammy side story was interesting, too bad we don't have magic to show everyone for real! I am not transgender but it would make life so much easier. Looking forward to the next chapter! I swear I watch the scroll bar as I read to see how much further I have to go before I am at the end of the chapter. lol And yet am STILL disappointed when it ends!
