Author has written 10 stories for Harry Potter.

A SHAME to see that only very few people review any more... it makes me sad. The only payoff a fan-fiction author gets is reviews. The feedback is obviously helpful, and therefore important, but they also just like to know if readers are enjoying their work. That's why we do it, to entertain. Please...let us know we aren't wasting our time... THANKS! :)

Okay... time for a totally new blurb...

I am 40

I am a Mum of five

I adore Severus Snape fics... preferably angst, hurt/comfort.

I quite like a Muggle OC/Severus pairing the best, but will entertain most other characters he's put with.

Not much of a fan of Hermione/Snape, but I've read a couple of good ones, so I won't disregard them immediately.

I much prefer a HP era Snape over a Marauder era Snape... that young fool needs a good clip around the ear! Older Snape is much more calm, sensible and focused. With a little training and TLC I reckon we'd get him groomed for a ... relationship... yes, I said it!

Can't stand Lily... she's a quitter! Friends don't turn their back on you when you're genuinely apologising for being foolish... they would see your distress. They might clip you around the ear (see above), but they won't give up on you! Lily gave up on Severus when he needed her the most. Shameful! He is, of course, not innocent and made plenty of foolish mistakes... but as J K Rowling showed, he was not yet beyond redemption. What might have been therefore lies in the realm of fan-fiction... and we authors shall gladly flesh it out.

Ginny annoys me, but I just don't consider her enough to actually 'dislike' her. She just doesn't matter to me. I much prefer to wonder what Molly and Arthur are getting up to... NO... not like that! *rolls eyes*

The rest of the characters are like toys in a sandpit... if they suit my purpose I will play with them.

It is a fact that I've become pretty rubbish at updating frequently these days... but I'm trying, I really am. All my fics WILL be completed eventually, that is my absolute promise. So, please, if you like what I've been doing send me a review or message - it honestly helps with my motivation. The kids can have cereal for tea that night, that's okay, right? So I can write more... for you!?

I've sustained your attention long enough - go read something and review! It's the right thing to do... ;)

Thank you!

:D
