Hi, my name is Allie.
I live in America, I do not have an amazing British accent, no matter how much I wish I did.
I like to write, but I mostly read.
Not Another Cinderella Story by Nymphea
Rated: 3rd-5th Years [Reviews - 49]
Summary: Lily Evans is determined not to become another Cinderella story.
And it's not just Cinderella that bothers her: so often a character begins her story insisting that she doesn't need a man’s protection, when—lo and behold—she’s saved by a handsome man and they ride off into the sunset despite her “determination” otherwise.
And if you started to think that their stories probably began much the same way as this one, well, you must not know just how determined Lily Evans could be.
Not an average James/Lily fic...(but still some fluff)...please read and review!
i'm just surprised that you put a year and a half into a paragraph, then spent a whole chapter on twenty minutes haha. the timing got me a little confused.
The Cause by Pussycat123
Rated: 3rd-5th Years [Reviews - 276]
Summary: Marty Price works for The Cause, which involves several campaigns and petitions on a weekly basis. It has become common knowledge within Hogwarts that if you see her coming towards you with a clipboard, you should turn and walk the other way. Or perhaps deny all grasp of the English language. And if this isn’t eccentric enough, there’s also her obsessive written observations of four boys in her year, which will one day make a rather interesting book ...
Remus Lupin, meanwhile, has always been a little different, too. Poor, sweet Remus Lupin is, to the casual observer, the picture of a sensible, hard working student. However, he has three friends who have done more for him than anyone knows and they have done this because of his troubled past, troubled present and troubled future. Why the gloominess? Because Remus Lupin just so happens to be a werewolf.
So what could these two possibly have in common? And how can their stories possibly connect?
Runner-up for the 2008 Best Marauder Era QSQ.
The prank was a nice break, and it showed the Marauders' trust in Marty, well done, and I cannot wait for your next update!
Author's Response: Thanks! I'm not always that good at writing the pranks, I'm afraid my imagination often fails me, but I'm glad you thought it was okay! And yes, trust in Marty was the main point, but also, of course, to remind everyone what the Marauders are all about! =D
Haha right, there was innuendo out the wazoo, but it was fun to read and very entertaining. Next chapter please!
Author's Response: In the queue already! Sorry about the innuendo ... it\'s not really like me at all, but it WAS fun to write. I can\'t help it when I spend so much time with teenage boys ... and girls, come to think of it. =D Thanks for reviewing!
NOOOOO NOT MARTY'S MUMMMM! aw, so sad. great job.
Author's Response: Thanks. And yes, I\'m afraid it is. But she\'ll be okay! *huggles Marty*
i love how marty is a love child between luna, rita skeeter, and a creepy stalker lady. hahahaha so great!
Author's Response: *grins* That\'s definitely one way of putting it!
I can't believe it's over. This fic and your writing here. It really is bittersweet. Great last chapter, I really did enjoy it thoroughly. An epilogue would make the parting blow a little less harsh though. (: Eh, who am I kidding? I doubt it'll happen, haha. I loved your stay here on mugglenet and wish you all the best in your own work! :D You have my infrequently updated LJ. -Allie.
Author's Response: Well, focus on the sweet side of the bittersweet for me, yeah? =) I gave the final interview as a kind of epilogue, but I'm afraid that's all. Thanks so much for your really kind words, and for all your other reviews.
Oh, I wish Marty just went back to them. Good chapter, a little bland, but still entertaining. (:
Author's Response: Well, I know this one isn\'t the best, but the next is definitely my favourite, so hopefully it will be worth it. Thanks for reviewing anyway!
I liked it! Not a personal favorite, but still "quenching," so to speak. Can't wait for the next update!
Author's Response: Well, hey, I\'ll take what I can get. Thanks!
Nice chapter, very interesting, and I doubt Marty is going to be in the dark about Remus' "furry little problem" for much longer. Great job! Marty's character is developing quite nicely.
Author's Response: Thank you! And yes, I\'m sure it will all come to light eventually ...
Very informative, I loved Marty's reaction to Remus' secret. I also liked the Lily/Marty friendship starting. Very good foundation work for more chapters.
Author's Response: Phew, I thought the review button had broken! I\'m glad you enjoyed it, hopefully the next one will be up soon.
A tad bit traumatizing. It sounds out of context since I haven't re-read your previous chapters in the longest time, but it'll make more sense for a person just reading it in one sitting, yeah? Question- do you have a certain number of chapters planned for this? Can't wait for the next update, ~Allie.
Author's Response: Yes, I do only have a certain number of chapters planned; in fact there are only two left. But I'm afraid I don't quite understand the rest of your review ... what is traumatizing and out of context? Which part? Sorry to be a bit thick, but I'm really not sure what you mean.
Oh, I hope you will update as soon as humanly possible!
Author's Response: It\'s already in the queue, so don\'t worry! Now we just need patience. =)
Going back to the tea shop, is what is a bit traumatizing. And as for the out of context- I forgot that Marty's mom was killed so I had to remember what happened at the tea shop, hahaha. ~Allie
Author's Response: Oh, I see. That makes a lot more sense now. Sorry I got confused, I'm still in that summer holiday frame of mind where it takes a long time to understand things! Although I should really snap out of that before double chemistry tomorrow ... Thanks for the review(s) anyway!
Thumbs up on another great chaptahh! I want some Remus-Marty lovin', as James so rightly put it. (:
Author's Response: Don't we all, my friend, don't we all ... =)
I love this story. Just thought you should know. (: Update, please!
Author's Response: I will - as soon as the queues reopen! Thanks for the review.
I'm expecting a huge climax soon. I cannot believe there's only one chapter left! I've followed this since the beginning, and I have to say, this is the first story I've read as it was updated starting from chapter 1 to the finish. I am going to be waiting impatiently for chapter 20. [= ~Allie.
Author's Response: Thanks, I'm so glad you've enjoyed it all! I really loved writing and developing it over time, so it's a great feeling that other people enjoyed reading it, it really is. Hopefully I won't put chapter 20 up JUST yet, because I want to draw it out a little bit longer, and I don't particularly want this fic to end at all!

Rated: Professors [Reviews - 40]
Summary: Even as the Dark Lord ascends, a few of his Death Eaters maintain a small, underground ring to import poisons, often with contacts abroad and in the darker sections of the Muggle community.

Wonderful, deep, and moving. Definitely a favorite.

Ah, Christmas. The season of joy and love. And Head Boy James Potter fully intends to use the loving atmosphere to his advantage by coming up with plans and using them to capture the heart of Lily Evans.
