Heh, I bet you weren't expecting another chapter. Not now Alara is gone. phew!
I might go back and redo that last chapter. It was a bit rushed, as I just wanted to get everything in and then dispose of Alara. Can you tell I got bored of her? (Like everyone else...) ;)
If you have any comments, constructive criticisms, etc. - then please do review! I promise I won't get mad and start accusing you of being a jealous loser. ;)
I didn't mean for everyone to get so stressed over this, by the way. Sometimes a blatant mockery can be funnier than a subtle parody. The important thing is, I had fun writing it. If you didn't have fun reading it - sorry. But no-one forced you to read it. If you did enjoy Alara's "adventures" at Hogwarts, then my writing this has been worthwhile. :)
I was surprised - and alarmed - that so many people took this seriously. I would have thought it was an obvious mockery of the typical Mary-Sue fic. It just goes to show how bad the Sues are, and how low the standard of writing has become, doesn't it?
The amount of flames was scary (even if the flames themselves weren't). I don't get this many reviews for my serious fanfics, unfortunately! I feel very bad for deceiving Some Guy, and other kind reviewers though. They offered very constructive criticism, and were serious about helping me improve my story, when I was being an idiot Sue!author on purpose.
Thanks for reading (and reviewing!).
