About me:

I'm an *insatiable* bibliophile--I started scribbling fanfics in spare notebooks when various canon couldn't keep up with my too-fast reading. Then--I discovered Fanfiction, On The Internet...!!!! ::drooling happily over my keyboard:: OBOY!! I hadn't known it was called fanfiction; hadn't ever shared a word with anybody else...finally got the gumption up to post something a few years ago (on another site), and discovered there are folks who *like* my writing. Wheeeee! And even better, now I have all these un-known stories just begging to be read, too! Heh.

I'm not really into LiveJournals, or chat-type sites; I just log on enough to download fanfics to read on my bus between routes; or sometimes to post my own stuff. I drive an hour one-way each day just to drive a school bus all day long...I MUST be Crazy. ,'=}

    BWAAAH-HA-HAHAHAAAAHA-HA!
    ::gasps in a deep, shuddery breath; desperately tries to hold it for the sake of aching laugh-muscles, then helplessly bursts into renewed guffaws anyway::

    Author's Response: Heehee!

Darkness swallowed Severus's childhood and is threatening to engulf Harry's. Will the man recognize himself in the boy before history repeats itself? [Generally short chapters due to (almost) daily updates]

    I like this take on things! Better than canon, actually--though to be fair, something written for pre-teens and teens really can't be all that deep, or most kids just won't like it, they'll find it "too boring". I've seen how often common beliefs are not true in real life, though, and I really like stories that come at things from different angles.

    I especially like your take on Slytherin! Of course, that could be 'cause I tend to be more Slytherin than any other House...and Snape's my favorite character. >=]

    Author's Response: Thanks ^^ I'm really glad that this backstory has received such a positive response; what you say about common beliefs is very true- most people seldom look at what they're told critically and, when you do the research, the conclusions which one can draw are often very different. Thanks for the review and I hope you continue to enjoy the story

Severus Snape survived the battle of Hogwarts and struggled to rebuild the Wizarding world. Now, duty fulfilled, Severus' life is, at last, his own. To end.

However, Harry Potter has a life-debt to repay.

    Ooooooh! That was good! My absolute favorite line is the one near the end, where Harry realizes:

    "I might not have thought myself better than everyone else but I did think that my point of view was right and anyone who stopped me doing what I wanted was wrong."

    That is SO-O-O perfect to describe canon!Harry!! It's exactly the thing about his character that just set my teeth on edge, and has me agreeing with Snape's assessment of him. I haven't seen it described quite so perfectly before! =]

    Author's Response: Thanks ^^. I think this is probably Harry's greatest character flaws (not that one can blame him too much- it's a common childhood trait) and I'm really flattered and pleased that you think I described it well. Harry coming to this realisation, I think, is essential for him to mature and, thereby, see Snape as he is, a flawed man who tried his best under exceptionally difficult circumstances. Thanks for the review

“At least my dad wasn't a bully like you!” The moment the child shouted those words, something inside Severus snapped. Not a bully? James Potter not a bully?

    ...the end? The END??!? Aaagh! NOOOOOOO!!! ::curls up under desk with a full box of tissues and a rather bewildered cat for a good long blubbery sulk::

    Author's Response: Sorry.  I'll keep thinking on possible expansions, but right now I just don't know where I'd go with it exactly.

Hindsight is 20/20, but when Harry's last steps into the forest set him back further than he'd ever thought, he never realised how grateful he'd be to have Snape there to help too.

    Heh! Harry's a bit slow sometimes, ain't he...? Very canon. ::snickers:: I'm absolutely *adoring* how this story is going! I'm just afraid it's going to end too soon; I like the long ones when they're this well-written.

It was the summer of love . . . er, no, not really. Left waiting for the Dursleys, Harry is found by the last person he'd expect to see. Written for the Summer Fic Fest 2015.

    ::shuddering:: S--s--sp-- *Those things* are the only thing that get to me, even in the scariest haunted house in my whole state, which I otherwise delightedly grin and giggle my way through. ::double shudder!::
    I like how this story is going. I just hope Dobby doesn't blow up Professor Snape's lab! Harry might not live to be able to avoid Hogwarts then! =}

It's Severus' turn to round up Christmas strays this year, and though he doesn't want to, he rounds up Harry Potter. In response to the Christmas Strays challenge by JAWorley and part of the Christmas fest for 2015.

    Awww...! Snape being sweet--in a very Slytherin way. =} Very well done. The Slytherins embodied their House (at least as I see it); characters had flaws that weren't blown out of proportion to ridiculous levels; and "fixing" the friendships wasn't too "magically" easy to be believed--and everybody felt in-character. I can't wait for your next story!

Harry is the Boy-Who-Lived... again, and again, and again. Now he is back at Hogwarts for second year with strict instructions that it is time to get his life fixed. Poor Snape won’t know what’s hit him.

    Oh, Merlin, I *love* the twist! Poor Severus...! You could actually end it like this...no, no; forget I said that--MORE! MORE!! >=D

    Author's Response: It was originally supposed to be a oneshot, but my brain had a similar reaction. Next chapter coming soon :)
