Ginny, Draco, Quidditch, and entirely too close quarters. Being forced to train, play, and live with Draco for a season gives Ginny a whole new understanding of and appreciation for the amazing bouncing ferret. Ginny's POV.Category: Long and Completed
There have been other trades like that. I know the Oakland A's manager Billy Beane did to someone probably five or six years ago.
Great story. I love how you've given quidditch a few baseball qualities: trades, spring training, three game series, farm systems. Really great. I had actually thought of writing a piece giving quidditch players the characteristics of most baseball players. And your writing just throws out some of the funniest lines.
Really enjoyed it.
Set in 1998, 7th year Draco Malfoy and 6th year Ginny Weasley cross paths in the summer festival of Beltane in Hogsmeade. Years later, they meet again. This time, things get more complicated as they struggle to sort out tangled emotions through the most unconventional ways.Category: Long and Completed
I, too have really enjoyed the different themes of the chapters. I thought the diction was new and different. And the imagery was excellent.
The only criticisms I have are the typos sometimes caused confusion and some tenses were not in agreement.
A thouroughly enjoyable mini-series.
The Second war is over, all ended as it should. Harry Potter defeated the Dark Lord and the world rejoiced. Seven years later Draco Malfoy finds that he must deal with death, love and life all at the same time. Meanwhile Ginny Weasley has made a name for herself in the Wizarding medical career. What happens when two worlds collide with the help of a magazine and a rather determined friend? Can old enemies form bonds of friendship? Can friendship ever become more? Just exactly how well did Ginny’s brothers teach her to fight? And what say does Draco's drug of choice have in all this?Category: Works in Progress
I'm so glad you updated this story. I love the characterization of both Ginny and Draco. Please don't leave us readers hanging so long for the next update.
Author's Response: I’m glad I updated as well. Thank you so very much! I truly do hate leaving you all hanging like that, but I currently do not have a Beta and my muse has left me. I hope to have the next chapter up soon. Thanks a bunch for your review! Hopefully you wont have to wait so long next time! :)

This chapter was so good! I enjoyed reading it so much! Please post another quickly and I will rave at that one, too.

I have to say, this had me almost teary-eyed. My dad died a few years ago and I hope his View From Heaven is just the same. I always imagined a big-screen TV with all-family channels all the time. Thanks for this piece.

I just found this story with your latest update. It's quite intriguing and I'm enjoying it alot. New update soon, yes?
Author's Response: Thanks for the review! My next update should be up soon.
“I know you,” she said softly. “I know that marriage is the last thing on your mind. I don’t want you thinking I’m dying for a sparkling diamond on my finger and happily ever after and all that.”Category: Completed Short Stories
“Don’t you?” he asked simply.
I think it takes a certain kind of man to propose during a shag and get a yes answer. Your Draco is exactly that kind of man. This was entirely enjoyable. A very nice dalliance.
It's hard to learn how to live without that one person you thought would be in your life forever. But Ginny Weasley had always been a quick study, and there are always certain grey-eyed boys to help speed up the learning process...Category: Works in Progress
So glad this was updated. It's so sweet.
Selling herself into a marriage contract, Ginny finds herself playing a deadly game, ultimately pitting her husband against her lover and a father against his son. Many twists and turns, depth and evil characters - and a long story of sweet and true love.Category: Long and CompletedNew! Epilogue is up! Yes, I know, the story has been "complete" for a couple of years, but this ending has been partially written for a long time and it ties up some loose ends.
Lucius had to find out, I know he did. But I still don't have to like it. New chapter soon, yes?
Author's Response: Just working out some details, but next chap will hopefully go to beta this weekend. :) Best wishes! -G
Draco and Ginny discover that the truth is a funny creature, especially when you can’t lie successfully.Category: Long and Completed
This story is wonderful. I've laughed out loud several times, especially when G realized she was wearing dirty underwear and D just kept saying, "my knickers." Kudos, for sure.
Author's Response: Thank you :) Poor Draco may never recover from that ;)
Must...update...soon. I'm dying here.
Author's Response: It will be updated soon!
Trying to escape the pain of her daughter's death, Ginny runs to Pennsylvania to start anew. Almost six years later, a man from her past walks back into her life, reopening old wounds and setting in motion a journey of discovery, sorrow, and joy.Category: Long and Completed
I don't know what it is about this story that keeps me coming back to it...oh yeah, it's the Draco/Serena dynamic. I love a man whose good with kids. Must be genetic conditioning. Looking forward to a new chapter.
Author's Response: Lol, yes Draco and Serena are quite the pair.
Oh boy, now we're getting to the good stuff! I love Draco as a quidditch coach...it'll be sad to see him have to give that up.
Author's Response: Well, he has a little bit more time in that position. In fact, I doubt that this story will actually go on to the times where he'll be working at the Malfoy Conglomerate. Lucius isn't intending on retiring any time soon. I suppose if I were to write a sequel...but that is getting way too far ahead.
As always, delightful. Can't wait to get to the fallout!

This was so good! They definitely seem comfortable with each other in their interactions. I loved the line about "Don't worry we're not serious," when Ginny thinks, "Neither are we." I love this ending, but also wish there was more.

The broken vial was crushing! What is going on?
Author's Response: I know it's not looking good, but well ... just hang in there. It can't stay this bad forever, right? Thanks so much for reviewing! I'm glad you are still reading this and enjoying it, I hope. I look forward to hearing more from you! :)
Keep the updates coming! I have the feeling we're just getting to the best part of this already delightful fic!
Author's Response: I'm trying to keep it weekly. And as for the best part - I hope you think so. I am always worried that people are going to be completely bored with this fic. Part Two was such a challenge to write and keep interesting. Part three is very different so I hope you like it. Let me know what you think! Thanks so much for reviewing - it really makes my day. :)
Ginny skips out on her last year at Hogwarts to go in search of answers in a troubled post-Voldemort world. What she finds along the way is a mad-eyed mentor, a mystery around the murder of Lucius Malfoy, and an adventure that teaches her far more than she thought possible.Category: Long and Completed
Written for tudorrose1533 in the 2011 DG Fic Exchange. Nominated in six categories, winner: Best Minor character.Note: this story will have one additional scene that was not part of the fic exchange posting. It will be NC-17.
I'm really loving this story. Ginny's motivation to hunt the Death Eaters may not be entirely healthy, but it's certainly understandable. And you've created a very nuanced characterization of Draco. I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT CHAPTER.
Author's Response: Oh, it is really isn't healthy, but she's hurting and not making the most sound decisions. Draco has a bit going on also, that I'm hinting at, but, since it's primarily from Ginny's point of view, we're just getting his side of things in glimpses, for now. Thanks for letting me know you are enjoying my work!
