Who is thecircularsky?

A university student. I like Severus Snape, Hermione Granger, Kingsley Shacklebot, Bill and Charlie Weasley, and most minor characters.

On my previous works:

Recently published "At the Turn of the Screw," a oneshot of Snape's reflections on poor decision-making. Try reading it. I like it, but it's not for everyone.

"An Inheritance of Tenderness" is melancholic oneshot in which Professor Sprout and Snape have an odd sort of companionship.

My first work, "The Most Unlikely Match," is awful. Don't bother reading it. I wrote it as a slightly illiterate preteenager. If you have to read, just try the last two chapters. The rest is embarrassing. It's incomplete and going to stay that way.

Regarding my reviews:

If you're here because I've reviewed your work, thanks for taking the time to write and publish what I've reviewed. I appreciate the high-quality stories out there and hope that at some point I'll get around to making a few recommendations on this page - maybe you'll be on the list!
