I love writing the following matches and mostly in the Harry Potter Forum.

Hermione / Lucius (Yes I do enjoy the bad boy turning good, or in some cases, good boy hidden behind a bad boy facade.)Hermione / Severus (I am and always shall be... .. a Severus Snape groupie. I'm almost 40 and I'm not afraid to admit it.)Hermione / Greyback (I'm just starting to like this matching though I'll admit I'm a bit picky.)

Hermione / Draco (Again I like this matching sometimes.)

Now to a couple that I've started to enjoy, the idea of her having found out Snape is her father, if done right this one intrigues me. Also, the idea of her being a hidden Pureblood or half blood, all these intrigue me though I'm a bit picky on the stories themselves.

Pet peeves :

If you're going to write, at least use full words, this is not IM Speak, you're not in chat land.

And last but not least : You NOD your head in the affirmative. And you SHAKE your head in the negative. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE PEOPLE!

Otherwise, yes I know that I haven't been as diligent, RL has been kicking me in the teeth, and i'm still job hunting. When that happens my creativity bombs out to usually close to nothing. But I'm working on four different updates right now, so keep waiting.

UPDATE : 12/31/2013

For the start of the new year I have cleaned out my favorites list. This isn't to say that there's anything wrong with those I removed, but I kept my favorites under favorites. Until they let me make file folders for the other ones. I did however, keep all the authors on my watch list so I can see whether or not any more doozies of fabulous wonderous works comes over my screen.

Thank you all for your wonderful writings, as well as the support from those still waiting for things from me. I promise I am working on them, I'm just doing them in hard copy first. It takes longer, and as I just restarted, college for the first time in 25 years, it's going to be my way to relax every day. Thank you again to everyone and have a wonderful 2014.

Thanks to a rather cowardly Guest who decided instead of giving a critique that was helpful and instead had only 6 words and most of them inflammatory, I am now going to be moderating the reviews made by guests. I do so apologize to those who haven't been so rude. I have been working on my stories on paper so you all know and working to finish them ALL before I post them. (As well as one new one that I'm reviewing for content, grammar etc). Thank you all for your patience.

CHALLENGES FOR READERS:

Okay, so I can't get on to the forums, so this is for those who have favorited me.

1. Hermione hears Dumbledore and the Weasley's talking about their 'plans' for Harry. She's about to do the Hermione thing but Snape pulls her back to the shadows, just tells her to listen. She not only finds out more about herself than she ever had known before, but enough to tell her she needs to get Harry the hell outta there.

Rules:

Hermione was adopted and didn't know about it.

Find someone who used to be hated or at least was an irritant for her to be related to. (Snape, Riddle, Blaise, Draco)

Harry and Hermione have a connection that was realized at birth and then hidden.

Harry has been taking flushing potions for the last year when he found out he'd been potioned by people he thought he trusted, and hadn't told anyone.

NO Ron/Hermione ships.

NO Harry/Ginny ships

Twins can be trusted, perhaps giving up being Weasley's to show their loyalty. (Bill and Charlie join in? Maybe Percy )

Ginny is a wild card. Brainwashed and needs something traumatic to break it? Potioned/Charmed? Or just greedy? Or maybe not even a Weasley? It's up to you.

2. Everyone thinks that Hermione was raised by the Grangers. What if they were plants to make it look that way? What if she's more engrossed in the Wizarding World than people think and it's an unlikely family that she's related to? Could Harry's decision on who to follow be the lynchpin that decides if they can blow the top off of a long standing fued that's only remembered by a couple of people?

Rules:

Molly isn't quite as white as people make her out to be, and is more of a manipulator than even Dumbledore.

Something in the Prewitt family have her hating the Potters as a course of family honor.

Dumbledore is misguided but it'll take something big to snap him out of Molly's manipulations.

Arthur isn't as clueless as people think and is keeping an eye on her from the inside for the family no one knows about.

Ron isn't evil, he just spends a lot of time doing the 'I need time to think about this and try and figure it out'.

Ginny does more spying for her mother than people realize. Hermione is her secret best friend.

NO R/Hr, NO G/H ships.

3. Snape and Lily were married for a year after graduation. They'd fooled everyone into thinking their were friends anymore, and married in secret. She was pregnant with twins and as far as anyone knows had a little boy. No one knows about the daughter except Snape. James was memory modified by Dumbledore with Sirius there to help so that he would think Harry was his in effort to hide the children. Only Snape knows where Hermione was hidden. More than one person can't be trusted in the Order. MW/GW/NT/AD bashing (light or heavy is up to you on each)

Rules :

Obviously this is not a H/Hr ship.

NO R/Hr or H/G ships.

Draco MAY have redeeming qualities to friendship level.

Fudge may be helpful.

Close relationship when all is figured out between Snape/Hermione/Harry

No Slash relationships for the three, but supportive of others.

4. Grangers and Potters knew each other while the Potters were in hiding. When the house blew up, Mr. Granger got Harry out before Hagrid got there, and they all went into hiding. It wasn't until the Hogwarts letters came that anyone knew who he was. Dumbledore keeps trying to do what he does, but Minerva has been told the truth since the day she told them about magic. Minerva and Flitwick will end up being their closest allies, and with them the Goblins and elves. What happens when you put two 'creature' species, two teachers, two students, and two muggles together against the biggest manipulator in Wizarding Britain?

Rules:

Fudge, Amelia, and Dolores end up being on Harry's side.

The 'meeting' with Weasley's is ignored from the beginning.

soul bonding fic between Harry and Hermione that comes to fruition when Minerva is there to witness it.

ancients punish dumbledore? "The One" sends chaos after Dumbledore? Anything else creative with one of the gods maybe against Dumbledore for going against their plan?

Closest to Percy, not Ron. Ginny is a wildcard.

Do they hide the soulbonding marriage or let it out in the Prophet before school starts? What will this affect?

Someone tries to poison one of them, blood adoption saving? (maybe)

5. When the group of students go to the Ministry of Magic in the fifth year they actually manage to destroy Voldemort. It had nothing to do with Love at all, or about Hate. The power that wasn't known about is something muggle wise. (Muggle fighting techniques maybe? Karate?) But Dumbledore does something in front of a wide variety of witnesses, including fudge and bones that has people questioning his intentions with the boy who lived yet again.

RULES:

Hr/HP or Hr/SS ships only

Ron may have a few brain dead moments but someone (Anyone you choose who) points out that strategy is used in more than quidditch and wars. This helps him be able to accept things and become a supporter for his friends.

If it's not a Hr/HP ship then they find out they're related in some way. Cousins? Siblings?

Harry is found with blocks. Once removed he's put in someones care that helps him with being able to remember how much he loved learning when he was younger.

If not a Hr/HP ship then no GW ship for him. PP, SB or Padma Patil.

(small side addition to the story. Ron gets to talk with a quidditch manager and finds out what he needs knowledge and grades wise to play and work up to a coach).

Hermione and either/and SS/HP help her do an extensive study on the bloodlines of over 1000 muggleborns with help of goblins. Manage to figure out difinitively where muggleborns come from.

Dumbledores ministrations must reach back as far at LEAST as Tom Riddle better if Grindlewald

Weasley's can be either split on this or all supporters. No evil manipulative Molly. Though feel free to have someone point out about her pushiness at some point.

NOTE TO ALL GUESTS:

If you can't post something constructive don't post anything at all. I had already planned on taking it down thanks to a well constructed note by someone who was very polite in their explanation. The guest who decided to just send 'Reported B*' is beyond rude. Guest postings have now been blocked.

UPDATE 8/6/2019

While I sit here stewing over matters at home, I find myself looking for a certain story and I'm half afraid that it's been removed. Does anyone know where the story of Severus Courting Hermione and Harry Courting Pansy is? I can't remember the name and it's not popping up on any searches. Please IM me if you know which one I mean.
