| Title: Chapter 1: Wake Up, Daddy! | 19 May 2008 |

- Brilliant! I'm eager to read more! It's definitely an intriguing concept, and I have that delightful sense of angsty dread!
Author's Response: Thanks and yes, this is a very angsty story! But also a story of love and redemption!

- I loved Tobias' impression of Dumbledore. Did you write this before or after Rowling said she'd envisioned Dumbledore as a gay man?
Author's Response: Actually this was after it, but I didn't know about it until a friend told me she had come out with it in a press conference, so Tobias's description was totally off the cuff but accurate nevertheless!

- Tobias thinking and regretting - beautiful!
Author's Response: Yes, indeed, and he will regret what he's done to Severus even more, eventually! Thanks for your reviews.

- Oh my god! You made me feel sorry for Tobias Snape! And coming from m y past, that's bloody impossible! You are an evil, evil genius! It's 1:12 am and I'm a teacher... I've got to get to bed, but I can't wait to come back to this story.
Btw, I'm glad you mentioned in your review of Eight you'd like me to read a story of yours. You rock, girl!
Author's Response:
Hey, i used to teach too--Pre-K in Florida for about two years and ESL and English for a year until I had to switch jobs (now I work for B&N) since my mother developed Parkinsons and I needed to move in with her. So I know where you're coming from.
As for Tobias, he is based a great deal on a former alcoholic of my acquaintance, a relative actually, and most of his behavior and mannerisms are drawn from this person and the redemption part is also true. Many of my fictional characters are based upon real people I know or knew, which I guess is why they seem so real to me. I really pulled out all the stops for this one. . . emotionally speaking. When I finished this I was a wreck, emotionally drained, but then that's how you're supposed to feel when you write something like this.
I'm glad you're enjoying this and there's more drama to come!
