oh no! i remember finding this story a few months back and loving it--but then i lost track of it after my computer crashed and storymarks went MIA. i absolutely LOVE this story; it's amazingly well written, nuanced and riveting. however, i can understand your wanting to take a break. i'll be looking forward to any updates to MM if/when you decide to continue!

Another wonderful story, Liz!! I'm sad that its going on hiatus, but as I have several stories in the same state, I can understand it. I hope you are able to continue soon, as this story is really good and I think it has a lot more potential to it.

I don't think its as much like Requiem as you think!! An excellent job so far, I can't wait to see more!

NO! please, come back! I love this story! lol.

I've been unable to access for a while, so, I've gotten behind on R&R. I like the way the story is going and the last chapter is a evil cliffhanger. I think the pace for the story is good. I don't think/remember if I've read Req. so, I'll use that as distraction while you gather your thoughts on MM. I'm looking forward to reading future posts. Keep up the fantastic work. ^_^

I'm disappointed to hear that this wonderful story is on hiatus, but I will continue to check back in the hopes that you will decide to continue it. I think it is beautifully written, and I LOVE the way you have depicted the slowly unfolding relationship between Snape and Hermione. I fervently hope you come back to this story - it is well worth the time and effort, and I'm certain I'm not the only devoted fan. Keep up the great work!

Look I have to be honest with you, I don't want it to change I love it how it is!

Somehow the idea of a drunken singing portrait of Albus seems to fit perfectly! What else has a portrait got to do anyway? Whe!

Oh my Hermione is quite a mess. Seems like she has not dealt with her grief at all. Is the dark figure in the forest Snape?

I'm sorry this is my first contact with you. But I really enjoyed your "Requiem" story and have followed MM because I like the other so much. I'm sorry that you want to take a break, but I can completely understand. Creativity is never easy to force, as I know well, because I am also an artist, not a writer, but an illustrator. But the point is, I know what it's like to have to step away and regroup a bit.

I'll be eagerly awaiting the story when "it" decides to continue. ;) As for your other idea, perhaps starting that one, will give you new ideas for MM. I get most of my ideas for paintings while I am working on others. It's very strange actually. But whatever works, right?

Take care!

Tamara =)

Well damn. You could put a notice in your summary so unsuspecting readers don't become envolved just to find out you've gone on hiatus. Just a thought. But seriously, this is one of the top SS/HG fics I have read, if you're looking for a BETA or someone to bounce ideas off of, Im free. Don't give up on this story though.

It's a shame that you're going to be leaving this fic for a while, but I understand completely =) I've written myself in to a dead end before and it isn't nice >.< all you really can hope to do is clear your head.

Hope you get things sorted out! =]

Liz, I love this story!! Take time; rejuvenate your muse - but please come back to finish this story! I won't be able to go to sleep wondering with the Malfoy's situation is!! Look forward to reading your work in the future.

I totally understand and empathize! This is one of the worst problems we writers face! I look forward to reading your new fic, plan to read "Req" and can't wait for you to continue MM!

Just keep us posted! :D

i've only just read this story and must it makes a very good read although hermione plays a damsel in distress a little too often. i think it's very nice of you to give notice of hiatus rather than just stopping abruptly. i do hope that you return to this story as soon as you can though. til then i guess i'll ckeck out you're other stories.

Don't feel too badly, at least you let everyone know what's going on for a while. There's nothing more depressing than realizing a story you've followed hasn't been updated in years, and you'll never know what happened. (to both the story and the author!)

Take care, and I hope the plot of MM starts to behave itself soon! I suppose I'll have to reread Requiem in the meantime, and when you start your new fic I'll have fun with it too. :)
