15th March 2009 - people still seem to be reading my stories, which amazes me and makes me very grateful, so thank you to anyone who has read, and an even bigger thank you for anyone who has reviewed. I've have (clearly) moved away from the Harry Potter fandom somewhat when it comes to writing. Re Good Intentions, the main reason it has not been updated is that I am very aware that the idea I initally had is somewhat cliched - I might finish it at some point but I'm not sure I will like it. I would like to make it clear that this sstory was started well before the 5th/6th/7th books came out, so obviously some details are wrong. I'm quite fond of Draco's Detour so that may be finished, and The Trouble with (In)animate objects might also be finished, but it does feel like it would be a long one, so who knows. There is fic at my livejournal, so I am still alive. That's all. Bye xxx

1st June 2008 - well I stand by what I said before, I really can't see when I will take up Good Intentions again - I think it would require a rewrite. Deal is finally finished though, and nothing else is abandoned - just ridiculously out of date. I'm afraid I've been seduced by other fandoms rather, and there is Top Gear and Mock the Week fanfic on my livejournal account (linked above). I definately intend to update the Harry Potter fics, however, and I really mean it this time!

3rd December 2005 - let's face it, Good Intentions is pretty much suspended indefinately - I can't get my head into the right place to write it at the moment I'm afraid. The last chapter of Deal will be forth coming pretty soon and I am working on a follow up to Born Too Late. My current favourite, however, is Draco's Detour, for which I've already written a prequel which will be posted when I've finished the main story. At the moment this seems to be the story I'll be updating most.

17 January 2004 - new bio! I currently have two stories on the go, Good Intentions and Deal, neither of which have been in any way, shape or form abandoned. I have 5 one-shots posted, some of which I do intend to write sequels/stories for. You'll see. I also have a live journal at: http:///users/northern_rain/ Go visit it. That's all folks
