About me:

Greetings from Virginia! I began reading Harry Potter fanfiction in 2006, and P&S is my favorite site by far! As a writer, I just hope that my readers will enjoy my stories. I always appreciate it when people take the time to leave a review!

 My hobbies include reading (of course!), quilting, Star Trek (TOS being my fave series), and I've recently begun studying Esperanto online.

I love cats, although I no longer have my own. But 26 cats have shared my life since I was a young child, and I have a plethora of wonderful, zany, and sometimes bizarre memories! (During the pandemic, I discovered a wonderful YouTube channel in Turkey--if you are a cat lover, please check out the "walter santi" YouTube channel and prepare to fall head over heels with numerous cats, plus Walter the dog! Santi is the white indoor cat.)

 Alan Rickman is forever in my heart. 🐢

As far as Harry knew, it was all some sort of experiment that only Dumbledore could understand. He had no idea that the cat he had been given to keep him company instead of Hedwig over the holidays before his 3rd year, was in fact, his hated Potions Master in disguise.

Because of the Azkaban escapee, Sirius Black, Severus is sent to stay with Harry during the entire summer, never making a sound nor leaving the boy's side. He could not speak, nor could he defend Harry against anyone other than the criminal on the loose, however Severus does something that no other adult in Harry's life had done before...he listened.

    Loved Sev grabbing the scissors! I'm wondering if there will be a disaster with the guests, similar to the Dobby incident in canon, and if so, what will Sev witness. How will he react? :-)

Harry and Snape switch bodies temporarily, thanks to Neville adding too much wormwood to what was supposed to be a potion to make the drinker become smarter.

    Glad to see Harry was relatively conservative in giving points-- he just might be able to fly under the radar. Maybe!

    Oh no! He not only didn't get awy with it, Snnape is going to get him BACK! Can't wait for next chap! Hee!

    Short and sweet! It would be really interesting to see a film version of this! Nice going!

Spend the day with three-year Harry and his stern yet loving father, our very dear Severus Snape. Read about how little Harry wraps the Potions Master around his tiny finger. Is complete for now. I'll add more chapters later if any ideas strike! Reviews always help!

Reviewer: shadowienne (Signed)
    This is a terrific portrait of a toddler! I had to laugh about being nicknamed "Stinky", coz a guy in my class in high school had that nickname (he refused to respond to it), and I had to wonder HOW and WHEN he got the name. (I'd moved to that school when I was 14, so I missed out on the guy's backstory.) But Sev is right-- once you get labeled, you're stuck with it! // You have dealt with so many topics in this one story, it seems you already have a LOT of ideas you could develop into future chapters, or even other one-shots in your universe. The sky's the limit! Have fun flying!!!

    Author's Response:

    Wow, thank you so much for the positive feedback, you have no idea how much I appreciate it! (well you probably do :D) Did you ever find out about the rest of his story? I know what you mean though, about getting stuck with it. One of the girls in my school always smelled like overcooked burritos (no offense to anyone because I love 'em really, but overcooked ones don't smell that great) and she was always teased. It was really sad and I wish people would'nt be so cruel .The good thing is that she moved so maybe she'll get a fresh start?

    Haha, thank you. Truthfully, I just wanted to add more and more but it would've been blabbling and I feel like I have so many ideas but they don't all coincide with each other. Now I'm just waiting for Mother Inspiration to strike again! 

    Thanks again for the wonderful encouragement and for your lovey review, I hope my stories will live up to everyone's expectations! 


After arriving back at school a week early, Harry's new school year is set to be filled with mystery and adventure. Who is the Whispering Man and what does his presence at Hogwarts mean? Is the Wizarding World safe now that He Who Must Not Be Named is returning to power? Join the adventure as Harry, Ron and Hermione navigate their Fourth Year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Reviewer: shadowienne (Signed)
    Ah ha! So it was Snape who actually hit Harry without meaning to! At least he was able to fix him up-- eventually! I'm admitting a fascination with the book (Defense At Its Darkest), wondering if that will play into the future plot somehow. As for a DADA teacher: one quirk would be someone who WASN'T trying to kill Harry for once! Hee! Maybe also someone who didn't care for the Malfoy name and took pains to let Draco know when he pulls a "My father will hear about this..."

    Author's Response: Hmmm, interesting about the book... I thought I'd go for an 'anti-death' teacher this time, I mean, poor Harry!! Ooo, really like the whole Malfoy thing - will definitely think about using that one... Thanks for the help and big thanks for the review!!

Continuation of Regards Harry (beginning with Chapter 29). This sequel of sorts to Moment of Impact follows Severus and Harry through Harry's sixth year at Hogwarts as they communicate through a series of letters.

    Wow! What an amazing take on the Tower scene! And what pain that both Severus and Harry are suffering as they reach the parting of the ways. This is really wrenching to read-- well done!

    *sniffles* What a tug on my heartstrings, that final scene with the doe Patronus. I've enjoyed the first two stories so much, and I'm already looking forward to the third installment. Way to go!

What happens when Harry really is as naughty as Snape thinks he is? Why is Harry acting this way and what will the staff do about it? In particular, what will Harry do when he finds out all of his detentions are now being assigned solely to Professor Snape? In response to the ‘Bad Harry’ challenge.

    Wow! I read the first three chaps straight through, and I'm really eager to see where you take this story! And boy, does Snape exactly how to push Harry's buttons! This is an intriguing twist on the usual Detention-With-Snape storyline. I'll look forward to seeing in which direction their relationship develops. Terrific start!!!

Harry's compassion spells trouble when he switches places with Peeves and becomes a ghost, then Peeves disappears. Can Severus and his friends help him out, or is he doomed to haunt Hogwarts forever in Peeves' place? AU, godfatherSev, HufflepuffHarry!

    Oh dear! Something tells me that Peeves just pulled a fast one on Harry and he'll not come back in twelve hours -- not voluntarily, anyway! But oooohhh, your description of the baked goods... *sighs deeply* I think I just gained five pounds READING about food! Can't wait to see where this goes, and how Peeves will deal with a thousand-year-NEW world!

    Author's Response: Yes, he surely will. I've just finished this story, so now you can see what happens in the end!
