Complicated Redux -- Part Two posted. And it's 100% new, so check it out! By the by, the ff.net word-count feature must be as bollocksed as the rest of the site, the count so far should be around the 11,000 mark. 2.
Complete -- Prequal to the above, re-posted with some minor corrections I felt it could do with. I think it's my best piece, and if you haven't yet, please have a read and let me know what
you think. 2 June 2002 1.
Everybody (Voldie's Back) -- It's filk time again! Read: I am bored and also have writer's block. A bit more fun and light comic relief for youse all. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go watch Oliver teach Harry how to play Quidditch. Again.
