Hello once again! Sorry for the people who actually like my story that I haven't posted in so long. I've had a TON of homework to catch up on and of course my personal life hasn't hurt my story either. I really don't like writing author's notes as an entire chapter in one of my stories, but I feel the need to…
I've received really good reviews on my story, but like every story I've received critical reviews (which is good!), but there are some reviews that I feel the need to explain. I'm not going to put who wrote them (partly because I don't know your username and I'm way to lazy to go look them up). Well here goes my ranting:
First and foremost I want to give my gratitude to the person who gave me a -very long- review on how I could take my story more seriously. I really loved how you gave me criticism on how I could improve not only this story but other one's that I may want to start. Also I would also like to thank two people who told me to go more into detail with my story. I also thought that my story was a little dry (I love how one of you used a cheese sandwich or something like that as an example!). Well anyway, back to the point, I completely agree with you and trust me I will start putting more detail into my stories. The only reason I didn't do it before was because I was to lazy and in all honesty I really didn't take this story seriously, because I thought It's only a story about Harry Potter but I love to write and your advice really helped me. I think I should start writing up better stories and I will definitely start with this story.
Now on to the reviews that I felt should be explained: (And in my explaining I'm not trying to be rude AT ALL, but I just felt that I needed to explain myself)
There was one review that said that if they wanted to read the story of Romeo and Juliet they would read the actual Shakespeare version. My response to that is that although I completely understand were your coming from, I thought writing a Hogwarts version of Romeo and Juliet would be fun and some people actually did like the idea so I'm going to continue to write it. I'm not really sure if the same person wrote that some of the people in my story were out of character, but you have to remember that I'm writing a Hogwarts version of Romeo and Juliet. Obviously some of the characters' personalities must be changed in order to suit the character they are trying to represent. That person used Blaise as an example. They said we met Blaise as a very serious character and that me putting him as a jokester kind of person is completely out of his character, but if you read Romeo & Juliet you would know that Blaise is supposed to represent Mercutio. Mercutio is Romeo's friend (or cousin, I'm not really sure) and he is a jokester kind of guy, so instead of making a new character I made Blaise Mercutio.
Well I know that all that was basically stupid, but I had to say that. Hopefully, I'll get a new chapter up soon for the people who are still interested in reading. Well until then have a good one!
The following is a list of the Hogwarts characters and who they're representing:
DracoRomeo

BlaiseMercutio
PansyRosaline

Well that's all for now. If any more characters appear that are representing a character in Romeo & Juliet I'll make sure to let you guys know!
