About me:

On May 28th of 2002, after a lot of deliberation and thought, I became Ponytail Goddess on fanfiction.net.  Looking back, I can't help but wonder why I chose such a silly name.  Clearly, I never thought I'd grow out of my ponytail phase during my freshmen year of high school.  Oh, how things have changed...

Anyway, I guess I could tell you a few less than interesting facts about myself, such as the fact that I am a music education major or that I live in Illinois, which is known for it's unpredictable weather.  However, that's not too terribly interesting, so I will bore you no longer.

I am here to write a few good fics and my main focus as an author is creativity.  I strive to write intricate fics with highly detailed plots that have not been seen before.  I like tricking people into believing one thing when they should believe another.  I also believe that a story can be satisfying with a less than happy ending.  Not everything in life ends happily, so why should all fics end happily?  Variety is the spice of life, so I'm going to flavor my fics in different ways to please you.

Please enjoy my Harry and Snape works here and do take a moment to check out all of my other works on fanfiction.net.  I think you'll enjoy them if you give them a chance.  Thank you for your time and for supporting my writing! 

08/19/2010:  Hello all!  Thanks for stopping by my profile!  I've had a terribly busy summer, but will try my best to post some new stuff very soon!  Have a good one!

-P.G. 

Current Projects:

Her Secret Obsession-A Sev/Lily pairing with mysterious connotations.  Harry plays a very interesting part as well; please enjoy this time traveling adventure.

Wish Upon a Star-Found on fanfiction.net, Severus wakes up and finds himself in a different world where he has apparently been leading a very different life.

A near tragedy and a shocking discovery lead two bitter enemies to much soul searching and eventual acceptance of each other. Much angst along the way though. Some Ginny and Harry.

    Great chapter--I really enjoyed the search for Harry and how Severus gets nastier as he gets more worried. I hope you update soon though because that is a rather nasty cliffhanger. I hope Harry will be able to pull himself away from the mirror!

    -P.G.

    Author's Response:

    Thanks PG. Glad you enjoyed it. Yes, Sev is experiencing all the angst that goes with the territory of being a parent. Not sure he likes it all that much. LOL.

    Harry's just going through a particularly rough time because Sirius' death has bee brought to the fore again. He has never had time to grieve. Sev, with Remus' help will slowly bring him back to his previously happy state. And to say that Harry has been truly happy with anything but his friendship with Ron and Hermione, no matter for how short a time, is a great thing.

    Lesley~


When Harry runs away from the Dursleys at the start of 3rd year, he is captured by Death Eaters and nearly killed, resulting in the loss of his magic. Only one man can help him now, Severus Snape, who has just discovered a shocking revelation . . . Harry is his son! Follow Harry and Severus as they attempt to build a relationship, resolve past conflicts, and heal Harry from the trauma he has endured.

    I'm glad that they are finally going to get to heal. I'm very excited that you mentioned having Sev's memory's of a two year-old Harry next chapter because I am such a sucker for baby stories.

    -P.G.

    Author's Response: Then you'll love the next chapter, it has lots of baby Harry in it.  And if you like little Harry stories, you should read my Never Again series, it's all about Harry as a toddler and a small child, it starts with a thirteen month old Harry, Lily, and Severus in Where Shadows Go. Thanks for rreading!

Title: Chapter 12: Promises To Keep 29 Dec 2008
Reviewer: Ponytail Goddess (Signed)
    Great chapter--I'm surprised that Harry isn't getting jealous of Mia for getting so much attention from Sev. She is adorable though and I'm glad she's getting along with her "almost" big brother Harry.

    The beagle made me smile. One of my earliest memories is of my dad getting me a beagle, which was my first pet. We went to this big outdoor pen and several were running around; the slowest one was the only one dad could catch and so he's the one we got. He looked just like you described Harry's dog too, which is awesome.

    -P.G.

    Author's Response:

    You just gotta love Mia, she's a doll.  And I don't think Harry's the jealous type.  Ron maybe, but not Harry.

    I have a beautiful beagle named Rocky and I just love him to pieces, he acts just like Rosie sometimes, and he got into plenty of trouble as puppy, but I wouldn't trade him for anything.  Beagles are so sweet and they are awesome pets.  I had several growing up too.  I figured Harry deserved one.

Reviewer: Ponytail Goddess (Signed)
    Lol, I loved the memories--especially the one with James saying he wouldn't mind Lily spanking him, lmao!

    -P.G.

    Author's Response: Yeah that was one of my favorites too, James is so . . .kinky, LOL! And it's a typical thing for him to suggest to Lily.

Title: Chapter 21: The Choice 29 Dec 2008
Reviewer: Ponytail Goddess (Signed)
    Honestly, I think Harry should stay. He's always wanted a normal life and a family who loves him and now he has it.

    -P.G.

    Author's Response: he does, but somehow things never work out for the poor kid.  Or for Sev either.  it's a tough decision.

Title: Chapter 22: Always A Snape 29 Dec 2008
Reviewer: Ponytail Goddess (Signed)
    What a lovely story. I really enjoyed this, though it was sad to have them leave their family behind. I hope they do reunite again.

    -P.G.

    Author's Response: There's a sequel to this one posted on here called Hide Yourself from A Prisoner and it features the second term of the third year, when Harry returns to hogwarts with Severus.  Thanks for reading and I'm glad you enjoyed this one.

Title: Chapter 17: One Wild Night 29 Dec 2008
Reviewer: Ponytail Goddess (Signed)
    Oh no! I hope Sev listens to Harry's side of the story before he goes nuts!

    -P.G.

    Author's Response: You'll find out, just keep reading, LOL!

Title: Chapter 14: A New Friend 29 Dec 2008
Reviewer: Ponytail Goddess (Signed)
    Lol, flying beagles! It would be cool if Harry could learn to cast wandless magic while he was in America. Maybe it would be easier for him when he gets his magic back.

    -P.G.

    Author's Response:

    It might and I love the flying beagle image, can you just see those ears?? LOL!


Title: Chapter 4: Lily's Gift 29 Dec 2008
Reviewer: Ponytail Goddess (Signed)
    OMG, this is exciting! I'm curious about the time change: how they are all together still in 1982. Great fic so far; I'm totally caught up in it!

    -P.G.

    Author's Response:

    In this AU, Voldemort never came for the Potters until Harry was two, so that's why they are all still alive in 1982.  I wanted to give Sev and Lily and harry more time together to form family bonds and memories, so that's why I altered the timeline slightly.  Hope that answers your question.

     

    Thanks again for reviewing this one and hope you like it.


Title: Chapter 5: Done With It 29 Dec 2008
Reviewer: Ponytail Goddess (Signed)
    Lol, I like how Snape discovering Harry eavesdropping was so anticlimactic. Great chapter!

    -P.G.

    Author's Response: Thanks, this was one of my favorites to write, I love a ranting righteous Snape and Dumbledore really deserved it here! And having Harry listen to it made it easier for him to accept Sev as his dad who really loved him and explained why he acted the way he did towards Harry previously.
