| BajaB |
Author has written 42 stories for Harry Potter. Update 11/11/2008 BajaB is pronounced "Badger Bee". I am a late 30's male with delusions of one day writing something worth publishing. Beware: Almost all of my stories have a twist in the tail, that's what makes them interesting (I hope). Unfortunately I tend not to use a beta that often, meaning most of my stories have some typos and grammar problems. A few were fixed by the wonderful Melandry from Perfect Imagination, and a lot of the others by the guys at AFC. Message me any mistakes you see. There is no doubt in my mind that the current movies will be replaced by a computer generated, long running TV series that is much truer to the books and expands the day to day lives of Harry and his friends, instead of compressing them and losing most of the wonderful bits that make the books so special. Deathly Hallows was much better than HBP or OotP, but the epilogue was atrocious (Albus Severus Potter? gag ) and much of the plot was crud (Dumbledore forgot the ring was a Horcrux? Just how senile was he? Hermione packed everything they might need, except food!) and some of the changes to canon magic rules seem poorly thought out (You need a wand to Apparate, but you don't have to be holding it - GoF,Ootp,HBP,DH. You can turn a desk into a pig -Minerva in PS, make sauce come from your wand while cooking - Molly in GoF, and refill a bottle of wine -Harry in HBP, but can't create food? Why didn't the Trace record Riddle casting unforgiveables when he was underage and in a Muggle house in front of Muggles; in HBP DD said the house was monitored, not the person, but in DH it is the person being monitored. I sure hope the movie version of Deathly Hallows is better than the book (like OotP), although the fact it will be two movies is really disappointing (money spinning gits).
