Not much to say about me.  I like reading and writing Harry Potter fanfiction.  I have been enjoying reading works on this site for a couple of months now and decided that I might as well make it official as I have been having difficulty submitting reviews with the captcha thing as it is always telling me I have misentered the numbers.

Past Featured Story Muggleville by Jan_AQ starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 571]
With a strange potion, new location and the odd Muggle Studies Professor along for the ride, Harry's in for an interesting summer, but why is Snape here? Dumbledore had better pray he gets all three back in one piece! Humor, Angst, No Mary Sues, No Romance, no real plot.

    I have really been enjoying this story. You write six year old Harry so well. I find myself laughing out loud at some of the things that happen. I loved this chapter. Poor Harry getting stung by a bee. I also like how Snape is slowly becoming a more caring guardian and I look forward to your next chapter.

    Author's Response: Thank you for all of your comments. :) I'm glad that you are enjoying Harry and the characters.

Past Featured Story Apprentice by animealam starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 48]
Voldemort's victims are disappearing, the wards at Privet Drive are weakening with no explanation and Snape is found out a spy, saved only by the same thing that keeps making the prisioners disappear, and no one knows why.

    I really like how you explain things in the opening chapter, and set the stage for the story, giving us necessary background. Very good work.

    I like the idea that your version of Severus has a bit of a prankster in him, as well as how Dumbledore manages to manipulate him into taking Harry on as an apprentice.

    Nice background on Severus. I like Nan. I wonder how things will go when he picks up Harry...

    Nice revelations, and realizations on Severus' part as he came to understand that Harry did not have the ideal upbringing that he'd imagined all along. I don't think Petunia was overly out of character, nor was Severus, given the nature of this AU.

    Tricky how Severus didn't reveal who the Master Harry would be apprenticed to was until after the signing had been completed. I wonder what the blood mist was all about.

Sometimes, we learn unexpected things about other people when we're not even trying.

    I really enjoyed reading this, and like the twist on the adoption story line, as well as the connection that was established between Harry and Severus because of occlumency. It was all very plausible.

As Long As You Know That, Potter by owlsaway starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 41]
It's a One Shot that takes Harry and Snape's first Occlumency lesson in another direction.

    Sneaky, and perfect. Nicely done. I like how you wrote this altered version of events.
