Author has written 23 stories for Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Harry Potter, and Velvet Goldmine.

I, A-Hard-Days-Night, do solemnly swear to review all the fics I read, regardless of the number of reviews, its age, or anything else.
I have joined the review revolution.

My favourite book: Three Men in a Boat (To Say Nothing of the Dog) by Jerome. K. Jerome.

My name is Dana, I'm 20 and live in Ontario, Canada and I go to school for Journalism

In journalism, we are trained to edit and communicate clearly.. also, I was editor of the student written page of my local newspaper, so if you are looking for an experienced, picky beta reader then then check out my Beta Reader profile!


As for the reviews I leave, I try to leave reviews with more depth than "omg update soon its sooooo goood" so if I liked your fic, I will tell you what I liked about it specifically - usually my reviews are several paragraphs long. That being said, if I didn't neccassary like your fic, or thought it could be improved, I will tell you so as well. But, as stated earlier, I will tell you what I specifically didn't like about it and what I think you could improve on. These are called constructive crit reviews, not flames, so please don't be offended.

I am a very blunt person and I will not lie to make one feel better. I love editing almost as much as I love writing. (See my beta profile if you need a beta).


The fics that I am most proud of at the moment are "December Wind and Kisses", a more recent one, which I feel showcases my writing more than most of my other fics. "To Taste His Name" which I wrote about Barty Crouch Jr during his time in Azkaban. And, "In Between" which I wrote about Harry being stuck in a limbo between life and death. I wrote it before Deathly Hallows, so, no, I am not copying that scene.

Please read them if you have the time and tell me what you think of it :)

Check out my C2 Community called "Music in the Wizarding World" It's not a song fic community, it's for fics that deal with music as an essential part of the plot.
