Not a great deal to say really!

After reading some great fanfic over the last couple of years I've decided to try my hand at it.  We'll just have to see how it goes.

Redefining Family by pdantzler starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 57]
After the final war, Harry has to make decisions about where he will go and who he will let into his life as he begins to reexamine his judgements about people. This story takes place at the end of the Seventh book, but before the Epilogue. SPOILERS for Deathly Hallows! Interaction with Snape is not in the first few chapters, but he will be a prominent firgure in this story.

    This is really interesting. I really feel for Harry, his despair at the workings of the Ministry and his helplessness on the jury. I want him to make his stand!!
    And Snape!! Took a while to meet him but he's certainly worth waiting for. Can't wait for the story to continue.

    I just want to say what an excellent story this is.

    It all just makes so much more sense to let Snape sort things out!!

    Thanks.

Past Featured Story Life as Dictated by a Talking Hat by RhiannanT starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 922]
Before Harry arrives at Hogwarts, the faculty have a meeting and decide that Harry will need a mentor to help him adjust, keep him out of trouble, and make protecting him easier. They decide that this person should the Head of the House into which Harry is sorted, presumably Minerva McGonagall. But things, of course, don't turn out as planned, and Harry is harder to deal with than anyone expected. Nobody asked him if he wanted a mentor, after all...

NOTE: This story has a prologue. It is not necessary to the plot of the story, but if you wish to read it, it is called(predictably enough) 'Prologue to Life as Dictated by a Talking Hat'

    This has been a lovely story. It's sad to see it finishing and I've got tears in my eyes from the last part of this chapter.

    Thank you.

Changing Perspectives by wellyuthink starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 58]
Harry and Snape have developed an 'understanding'. Unfortunately, when you and your grumpy Potions Professor are unexpectedly thrown into the past, it is possible that this event might have an adverse effect on said understanding...

    Great story! I really enjoyed how Harry went full-circle in his emotions about Snape. And you have to love Snape-the-younger urging Harry to throw pie in his older self's face.
    Off to read more...

Moment of Impact by Suite Sambo starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 272]
An accident the summer before 6th year puts Dumbledore's plans for Harry in motion sooner than planned. Will an unexpected truce with Snape better prepare Harry for what is to come? An introspective Snape mentors Harry fic with all the regular players, told from Harry's point of view. Slightly AU after OOTP.

    I've just stumbled across this one and don't know how I managed to miss it before.

    This is a really interesting mentor Snape fiction and I like how you have portrayed both of the main characters. Severus is capable and trying his best, which Harry can see and so it's not surprising that he starts trusting Snape.

    Anyway, really enjoying it, looking forward to the next instalment!

Past Featured Story Digging for the Bones by Paganaidd starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 1254]
Rather than allowing Harry to stay at Diagon Alley after he blew up Aunt Marge, the Ministry sends Harry back to the Dursleys. Harry returns to school after a terrible summer, to find that he's not the only one with this kind of secret. A student has been killed by his family. New screening measures are put into place by the Ministry: Every student must be given a medical exam and interview to look for child abuse. With Dumbledore facing an inquiry, Snape is entrusted with the task of making sure EVERYONE receives one.

    This is really good. I've only just found it and have just read through the whole thing in, well, okay two sittings (I did have to go to bed at some point!).

    Well-written with everyone in character. Wonderful!!

    This is a story I am always glad to see pop up in my inbox. I can't express how much I love the characters and storyline (and I wouldn't mind at all if Snape and Lupin got together!)

    So glad to see this updated! It's my favourite WIP.

Sequel, of sorts, to "Moment of Impact." Harry and Severus' relationship continues to develop through their correspondence during Harry's 6th year. Mainly follows canon but with the H/S mentor relationship established in "Moment of Impact."

    I've really been enjoying this story but I've recently been getting extra excited when I see the updates. You're channeling JKR a bit with the darker side coming through in the latter stages of your fic!

    I love the seriousness and tension in the Wizarding World that is coming through, and Severus' attempts to guide and inspire Harry despite the handicaps. You've crafted your characters so well and the you've maintained a good balance between letters and direct action.

    There are simply far too many things to praise! Keep it up!
