I really like this fic, but there are lots of spelling mistakes and such which take away from it... but it's nothing that a good beta can't help.

Damn, wrong file. My deepest apologies. Ill try to get the right one up.

sarcastrow August 22 2008, 22:06:21 UTC

This would now be the correct file. I initially posted the wrong one. I need to be sure and wear my glasses when I post ;)

I enjoyed this. It's a nice, quite uplifting story, nicely told.

I have only read one of your stories previously (Tidy Time) which, like this one, was characterised by a breadth of imagination and an ability to tell an interesting tale.

In a review, I probably wouldn't have made the comment that starryskies has made above, but if I can help in any way with proof reading, pre-beta work or even Brit-picking I'd be happy to give it a go - I've done it for others. If you'd like me to help then email me at exartemarte@sky.com.

Thank you. I tend to link all my stories together so the characters have some depth. That’s what I tried to do with this story and “Tidy Time”. There’s a sequel to this even. I really wanted the prompt about Seamus going home, and all the while I was writing these two prompts I was writing “Season of the Wolf” a romance staring Seamus and Lavender. It occurs about four months after this story.

I’d like to take you up on your offer to do a beta read “Season of the Wolf”. I’m working on flow so I’d like opinions on improving those aspects of my writing. I’ll email you also. If anyone else would like to read it it's here http://sarcastrow.livejournal.com/6309.html

I’m glad starryskies spoke up. I did post the wrong version of the story initially. I had misspelled the Creevey’s last names, and I wind up spelling Kreacher’s name about five different ways. There were also some punctuation errors (and there still may be a few), so I’m glad I was given the heads up.

I'll be happy to do it. I imagine you probably use MS Word - everybody seems to - so if you just e-mail any script you would like me to check over, I'll do that and send it back commented as appropriate.

I loved the interaction between the DA members at the anniversary... the sense of closure, peace, happyness and love! And the ending was certainly original...
Well done! :)

Thank you. I was given the ending first, and then the rest came. The idea of the boys getting together every May 3 and doing what they do was just too funny. I hope I did it justice.
