I have something that I'm working on at the moment, it will come out eventually I'm sure.

Expecting my first bundle of joy in about six months from 6-14-10. As such my spare time is spent on my back relaxing, so I'm entering back into the fandom, reading for now, writing soon.

Now I want that cowboy thing explained.

Author's Response: Maybe I should ask for proof of age before I explain. The cowgirl is the rider, she is just facing the opposite direction she normally would.

Guilty Kisses by alexandriaisariel    (Reviews - 19)

Excerpt: It was always like that. Always. Passersby would wonder if this relationship was somehow abusive in some way. Always painful, always passionate. They poured it into each other, sucked it from each other as if it was the thing that sustained life.

Poor guy just got in trouble for nothing. Well almost nothing. Stupid Harry...any who i think this is fantastic and i hope to see it updated soon.

Author's Response: Thanks so much! Yeah, Harry was a complete putz in that chapter. He\'s such an easy target, though...I really couldn\'t help it! :D Thanks for reading!

Well written, as is to be expected from you, I love that you're writing in first person, that's my favorite style.

Author's Response: Hahahaha! Point taken, braidedsilver! I\'m glad that you are enjoying the first person-- it\'s actually my favorite style to write, so that works out perfectly for us, doesn\'t it? :D Thank you very much for reading!

Possibly your best work. Characterization was, in my opinion, accurate and the story line was rather original. Normally ther is a pre-war or pos-war romance, it's rare to see an in-war one.

Author's Response: Thank you. I was feeling rather angsty, and this is what happened. I\'m glad you liked it.

Reviewer: braidedsilver Signed
Date: Nov 16, 2006 Title: Chapter 1: Forgiveness

Hmmmm I wish you mentioned exactly why Draco left, maybe gave more details to that entire situation, but it was still a good story, I can't imagine Ginny as fat, just a bit plump. I can however imagine her insisting the engagement not be announced until she's lost weight.

Author's Response: This is the third part to a trilogy of one shots. The first and second stories (Tears and Forgiveness) definitely say why Draco left. And I can definitely see Ginny insisting that too. ;)

Author's Response: Sorry, I meant Tears and Mistakes as the first two stories to the trilogy.

Your writing is good though it seems to be lacking. There's no plot set up, you just dive right in, I'm not sure I approve of the original characters and I think the characterization of Blaise and Draco are a bit off, though your description of Blaise is perfect. I don't think Draco is one to pout though I do beleive he'd have sneered.

Author's Response: I appreciate you taking the time to give me concrit. All I can say about the plot is, it unfolds as the story goes on, by having a back story it would all become lengthy and redundant. It seems my OC\'s have two categories -- love them and hate them. Although Sage Weasley is not an OC he is a canon Weasley brother, we just don\'t know what his name is (hence Sage) or anything else about him for that matter. We don\'t see Draco interact with his friends all that much in a relaxed setting, so there is no way of knowing if he pouts or not. He is a spoilt rich kid who is finally growing up, in light of that, I\'m trying to keep him from sneering too much.
