About me:

My name is Matthew, although I prefer the nickname Mutt, which I got from my nearly 16-year long obsession with wolves. I am about to enter college, and I enjoy reading fictions about Harry Potter in which he is either abused by the Dursleys and finds a Father/Guardian/Mentor in Snape, or in which he is sick with some type of Cancer (such as in Behind the Rainbow by relative 1983, or Alea Iacta Est), or is disabled in some way, such as in Burnt or Destiny Rewritten.

    It's a rather interesting story, so I was wondering; are you planning on making a sort of continuation to this story? I think it would be nice to know what happens after this, how Harry and Snape evolve, and wether or not Harry gets better. Thank you!

Simple Wisps of Snow by silvermoonfae starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 39]
Winter has come again and all seems well in the castle. Christmas is all but around the corner. And even Snape seems more...approachable. But is it really? Is it all too good to be true? What secrets does the castle hide? And what is the enigma of The-Boy-Who-Lived?(Edited recently)

Harry Potter and Mark Evans hung onto each other for dear life in Little Whinging.

Reviewer: Rye (Signed)
    I think this is a good story, however, it would be nice to know more of how their relationships evolved, between Mark and Harry, and between them and Severus. Will you ever make a sequel, or a longer version of this? I specially enjoyed the last paragraph.

    Author's Response: Thanks for the review.  I wanted to leave some things up to the reader's imagination.  I won't be making a sequel to this.

    This is really well written, and even though you don't write it in first person, it gives the reader a concrete idea of what Harry thinks, and how he works. I'm looking forward to the next update!

A Freak By Any Other Name... by Lillielle starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 88]
Voldemort truly died when he attacked the Potters. However--no one was sure for years. Harry was left with the Dursleys. The abuse and neglect is stronger than in the books. When Harry makes it to Hogwarts, he is Sorted into Slytherin. Can Professor Snape see past the boy's
parentage and realize he needs help? [Warnings also include self-injury and suicidal thoughts.]
