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. 🐢

Harry would always remember it as the summer he got to go to camp and forever escape the Dursleys. Severus would remember it as the summer he allowed himself to stop being blind. In response to the Camp challenge by JAWorley.

    Great chapter! I felt as if I were on the hike with Snape and Harry, and then the crawdads -- what a catch! I'm hoping Harry will do well on his swimming test, but I do have to wonder, if the prize isn't a bicycle after all, will he be terribly disappointed? (Snape did say that the prize was different every year, but Harry is fixated on that bike...)

The Dursley family move house, and Harry is horrified to find that they are now living opposite his most hated Potions Master. Between Snape and the Dursleys, will Harry make it to the Burrow in one piece?

    I read the story straight through and truly loved the development of Harry's new relationship with Snape, especially how Snape didn't dally (much) over admitting to himself how wrong his perceptions of Harry had been, and how he plunged into changing Harry's life for the better. Harry kind of went with the flow, but he still worked at the relationship in his own way. In the end, they rightfully got what they both deserved -- each other. Great! Thank you for a terrific read!

Halloween approaches and this year the Veil will be its thinnest, yet, allowing those who did not become ghosts the opportunity to interact with the living. Not all spirits are benign, however – and not all wards are fail-proof.

    Whoa!!! That ending was unexpected!!!

    Author's Response:

    That was the idea! (Also, you can blame my roommate Chris for that - he's the one who gave me the idea.) <3 ^^

    Awesome action! Wow! And now...???!

    Author's Response: Everyone dies. :P Not really, of course, but I said that to my bestie when I reached that bit and she looked like she wanted to smack me. :P

    Great Halloween blast! Genuinely scary moments, and it kept me going and going... Thanks for the ride! 😊

    Author's Response: Yay, I'm glad you enjoyed it (and actually found it scary!). Thanks for the feedback. ^^

    Just found this as Story of the Moment-- really enjoyed it throughout, getting in the spirit for Halloween! Your portrayal of Tobias, both alive and in spirit form, hits hard, definitely a brutal adversary that's believable and creepy. Also, the psychological effects of his abuse ring true, both of the younger Severus and the older Snape. And YAYYY! for Harry, for being the Gryffindor he is, choosing to fight side-by-side with his own adversary! Loved it! The creep factor kept me glued to my cell phone screen from start to finish!

Snape sets a lesson on creative brewing. Harry puts his own spin on the challenge. Holiday fest prompts are alcohol, cocoa, and party.

    Love the tapestry! And oh-so-clever Harry, and rather naughty, too! But at least Snape got the benefit of his son's out-of-the-box thinking! Great holiday story! 🎄

    Author's Response: Thank-you. Compliments always mean more when they come from someone whose work one enjoys. Merry Christmas!

Five year old Harry has finished his letter to Father Christmas. Now all Severus has to do is read it!

    This is so cute! And Severus' reaction at the end is priceless! I wish him luck with Molly. Wonderfully entertaining!

On Christmas Eve, Harry makes a mistake that nearly costs him his life, and now nothing short of a miracle is able to save him. A frantic Lily shows herself to Severus, pleading to save her son. Will Severus be the bringer of a miracle, or will young Harry be doomed to never see another Christmas again?

    This was a darkish story, but I loved the guardian angel(s), and also how Snape's comment about the Easter Bunny seemed to foreshadow Bugs! So glad Harry got a good Christmas, and pleased that Severus was willing to go to so much trouble to that end. Thanks for a great read, and Merry Christmas! 🎅

    Author's Response: I didn't intend for it to be so dark, but it just sort of happened that way. Thank you for enjoying my story, and Merry Christmas to you too! 

Thanks to a meddling Christmas Elf, Severus and Harry's lives will never be the same. Or: the story in which Severus and Harry become gingerbread cookies and Dumbledore has to rescue them from a snow globe.

    Loved all the special details, such as the pink sugar blush, the red hots, pretzels, and the candy heart! And the image of the gingerbread men making snow angels is unforgettable! So glad that elf "interfered"! Merry Christmas, and thanks for a great read!

    Author's Response: Thank you so much for reading this, and for letting me know what you liked about it. :-) I was so worried about how it would turn out. I'm glad that you liked it.
