*smile* I've read this before, but it's still an entertaining read (that made me go "oof!" during the first part - what an awful situation, and how horribly typical in RL). The second section was a lovely counterpoint to the frustration of the first part. And it's a perfect femgen fic. Thanks for reposting!

Thanks! I'd completely forgotten I'd written this, until I was scanning metafandom last night. All this recent hullabaloo has made me want to dust off more old fics and get them posted. :-)

Oh, I just love this! Love Ginny's responses to the interview question and her teasing Harry about what he would do if she became just as famous as he. How cute! :)

Thank you! I'm so glad you liked this. I imagine it would be very challenging to be forced constantly to be in Harry's shadow (just as it is for any spouse of a famous person). I trust Ginny's up to the task, though. :-) Thanks for reviewing!

Oh, absolutely she is up to the task! That's the best part about Ginny-she's a force to be reckoned with, all by herself. That's why she's Harry's equal :)

I really did love this. You not only captured Ginny but it was nice and feminist without being overly preachy. So lovely :)

Oh I like this. It just flat out put a smile on my face. This is going in my list of fics to read when I need a lift.

LOL
The interview was very entertaining. :)And I loved the little scene with Harry and Ginny at the end.

Great job!

Thank you! I had a lot of fun writing that interview. I can just imagine the look on Ginny's face when the reporter asks if Harry wears boxers or briefs. *g* I'm glad you enjoyed this. Thanks for reviewing!
