Hello Sigune.... it's Penguin2006 from DeviantArt. Well, it's so hard to believe that English isn't your first language. My Dutch husband has been in the UK for 6 years and he doesn't speak as fluid English as you yet... come to think of it, I don't either and it's my first language! I've just read one of your stories, The Good-Morrow, and I loved it. Very different from any other fanfic I have read so far, very immediate and crystalline. I registered here yesterday so I could post comments on your journal....
Is there one place where I can read all your stories? You seem to have posted them in quite a few places and I need to log on to the sites for the rated ones. I don't want to have to register to a whole lot of different sites, so which one would you recommend?
I was interested in some of the replies to your mini-essay about Snape and his connection with Harry. One person commented about what a vile, cowardly character he really is. It's true! You've mentioned it yourself - if we met him in real life, we would want to definitely stay at a distance from this unpleasant man. One of the least attractive things about him is that he is an adult man who gets off on bullying little children. It's just pathetic. Not to speak of his downright evil past. Yet we are all so fascinated by him. I blame JKR for writing him with such obvious enjoyment. She has admitted that he is a detestable character but she loves to write him because he is such fun, and it really shows. Perhaps we have all been drawn into this passion she has for the writing itself? All I know is that I am slightly obsessed.
I'm off to read more of your stories now, starting with the ones mentioned above...
Oh, and by the way, if anyone wants something checked for British usage, you can send it to me because I'm always seeing mistakes of that sort in fanfic (but I'm not a writer so I couldn't betaread). You can pass that on if you want. (Not in yours Sigune, The Good-Morrow was b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l.)
