I have an easy time getting stories started and getting into them, but have an especially hard time to get them to a good end. This is my place for planting these stories and maybe the input I hope to get from reviews gets them to move on.
I have a few 'prejudices' in this area – I strongly dislike any relationships between the older and younger generations; I detest harem stories; I support mostly Harry/Hermione and happily ship Sirius and Remus. My other favourite characters are Susan and Amelia Bones, the Weasley twins, the professors at Hogwarts sans Snape (too laden with horrid traits for me to even consider a good person), Poppy Pomfrey, Mad-Eye, Arthur, Bill and Charlie Weasley.
The following is an excerpt of a story I've started. It is not the option Harry chooses in what I've already written – should I go on with this version as well?
Review and tell me!
- Fragment No. 1-
"I can let you go back - and let you go back to any point in time before now. The only limit in your choice is the date of your conception. If you want to go back this far you can simply wait for a few days longer before you come to this world, which would seriously blast that prophecy. Your parents would still be in danger, because they were fierce enemies of Voldemort, but you would most probably not be under Dumbledore's thumb then. And you would not be the Boy-Who-Lived."
Harry's eyes lit up - a whole different world that would be!
"Would I remember?"
"That would make sending you there a bit more difficult - you'd have to be born with the full ability of thinking and talking, but at the same time you would still be a helpless baby! You could, however, help your parents a lot. On the other hand you'd spoil parenthood for your parents a bit."
"They could still enjoy that with any siblings I might get..."
"True."
"And I could tell them the Prophecy. I'm sure they'd think of letting Voldemort know the full contents quick enough – because had he known he'd most certainly not have touched any of us and kept living in fear of it to come true…"
