Edit on October 9th, 2010:

Hey, can't get into my other account so I made this one. The other only had one favorite story and community though, so it's not a total loss.

Decided to finally start posting! :D I just need a COMPETENT beta reader, because thus far the only ones I can find use incorrect usage or tell me that I need to use proper grammar in DIALOGUE! D: (I have to wait the time limit now... D:)

What to expect from me:

I will include Harry as the main character. If I don't, which is highly unlikely, I will put him as the main second character. I despise stories focusing on minor side characters-sorry Lupin, Sirius, Snape, etc. fans. I just don't see why Harry, the focus of the entire HARRY POTTER series, is not even included in some stories on this site... Maybe I'm just being difficult, but I think all the stories focusing on characters even more minor than those mentioned above are just idiotic. We don't know about Emmaline Vance, so why do we feel the need to make a personality for her and make her the focus of the story? To me, the names and places could be changed and the story wouldn't be recognized as a Harry Potter piece, which is sad. :(

Sorry, I seem to be ranting more than anything. I actually have no problem with slash or het fics as long as they remain on the plot-line. I have a het story planned, but I dunno yet if I'll do anything with the idea.

Anyway, enough about that, other possible information that you need/want to know:

~I try to update quickly, but my internet service provider sucks so no promises.

~I plan on becoming better at writing. So, any critique is accepted.

~IF YOU ARE AN AUTHOR: I don't mind people wanting to use my plot-lines, even to the point of allowing them to use a part of my story, but you MUST contact me about it first. (Unless the idea is cliche.) I don't want random people taking my work- actual word-for-word writing- and using it without my acceptance. I have two other accounts on here, and on one someone stole my work and changed only a couple adjectives. Same title, same summary, everything. I don't get why, and I don't care why, but I did make sure the account was deleted for it. I know I'm ranting, but seriously people, it's FANfiction, get a life if you have to steal work from it. I have allowed someone to use parts of my work in the beginning of their own story- word-for-word- but they gave me credit and changed the plot to fit their own purposes in chapters after the first. I'm pretty laid-back about this, so don't be an ass about it to me.

~My other accounts do NOT mention this one and will NOT for quite awhile. The reason: My boyfriend and best friend know my other two accounts and I don't want them to know this one. I like the privacy of knowing I can post whatever the hell I want without them asking me about it. It's awkward to say the least... :P I have doubts they'll find this one though. :) If they do, I'll link the accounts and make another one.

~The account that I can't get into is Le Hiver Moi, my friends don't know about that one either.

~If you have any questions, want to be a beta reader for me, want to do a partner-fic with me, have a fic request, or just want to talk (which I seriously don't mind), then please send me a message and I promise to reply back ASAP.

Here's to hoping for a better future with fanfiction,

Antoinette d'Hiver
