A very good site for quick info on HP: http://www.hp-lexicon.org/index-2.html

Sites to help you identify/correct a Mary Sue problem you may or may not have. Check ups should be given to all characters (especially original ones) every 3-5 chapters in order to create the most believable character possible:
- http://www.geocities.com/cornishpixie7/harryp/marysue.html - Test specifically for Harry Potter characters.
- http://www.angelfire.com/gundam/otto/grayswandir/mary-sue-test.html- Very detailed test for all Mary Sues and Gary Stus in general.
GOOD LUCK XD

10-15-08: Been working more on my own, original work, and don't think that I will continue with fanfiction. I will, however, continue to be an avid reader and reviewer. I also do some Harry Potter roleplay on rmimagic.com. It's a pretty cool way to explore a character and interact with other writers to improve your work, check it out!

08-03-07:
Where Loyalties Lie, the sequel to my first founders fic, is posted. Another chapter of The Prince and His Lily is in progress.

08-02-07:
The sequel to Chains should be coming out tomorrow. The Prince and His Lily will be a bit delayed, until I get back the seventh book from my mother!

07-27-07:
I am just over half way done with the final chapter of Where Chains Will Never Bind You, which I must say, feels rather satisfying and strange all at once. You can expect it posted by the end of the month.

Another update. I'm done with the chapter, although it will have to undergo some editting. It is also the longest chapter in the story, but that is all I am going to divulge. Expect it to be posted July 31.

07-26-07:
Yes, I'm alive, and Where Chains Will Never Bind You is updated :D

10-30-06:
The Price of Blood: Posted with a new prologue.

10-28-06:

Where Chains Will Never Bind You: Look for an update around 4pm CST.
The Price of Blood: Probably take down for editting today.

10-22-06: Yeah, yeah I know, haven't been here in a while, but you can blame chem and write assertive letters to my teacher about how she should just let us go to IHOP already... Anyway here's the update on all the stories...

Where Chains Will Never Bind You: Helga Hufflepuff certainly has some kind of vengeance against me, because anything I write for her is complete crud... meh
Before It's Too Late: Well you see, back when I started this, there wasn't even a Tom R. section, and only three other stories with Voldie/Hermione pairing, and I started reading them, lots of them, and they just kept pouring it, and frankly, it became one of those fad pairs, which is tiring, really.
Pandora's Box: Seriously considering taking this down, because it's getting the least response and I'd rather concentrate on other stories anyway...
The Price of Blood: Thinking of taking it down for a while to do some editing, as well as to give it a nifty prologue.
The Hardest Thing: Plotting evilly... basically, everything I've written for the third chapter so far looks really lame, and I shall not make anyone sit through lame chapters.

Any questions, comments, or complaints can be directed to private messages or reviews. Happy writing (yes, that's lame, but I can't think of anything else)

8-11-06: Surprise! At 5:15 EST not only willWhere Chains Will Never Bind You and Pandora's Box be updated, but so will The Price of Blood and my PotC story, The Hardest Thing.

8-10-06: Sorry I haven't been around in forever, there have been vacations, family stuff, camp, loads of business. But the seventeenth chapter of Where Chains Will Never Bind You and the sixth chapter of Pandora's Box will be up tomorrow, so keep an eye out for them.

5-19-06: Where Chains Will Never Bind You has been updated!

5-18-06: Yikes- so many finals and SAT II's and Regents to study for! Still should get another chapter WCWNBU out this weekend. Also, to perk up the author, please private message me if you know/writing a founders story. Even if it's not on this site. I like them a lot but there aren't too many I haven't read out there and that makes me sad.

5-13-06: Another chapter of Where Chains Will Never Bind You to be posted soon. I think this is going to be the start of the six chapter countdown. The plan is to get the story done by the end of June, and to focus more on my other stories for the rest of the summer. A sequel to Where Chains Will Never Bind You will be posted by September

5-6-06: Only five more weeks of school! Which means pretty soon, I'll be having a lot more updates. Yay for summer!

4-1-06: So I've had some trouble keeping on schedule. Everything but "Before It's Too Late" to be update at 5:15 PM EST

3-27-06: "Pandora's Box" chapter is finished. Posting date for all of my stories is still set to be on Friday. Just two more chapters to go.

3-25-06: I think I'm going to have a psycho-updating party on March 31st, where all of my stories will be updated. The chapters for "Chains" and"Pandora's Box" chapter is halfway there, so I only needed to do two and a half more chapters, and then I will be ready for some crazy March Madness on the 31st

3-1-06: Not really in a writing mood for the past well... since last time I updated this place. I'm going on break for a while, but I should have all stories updated by the end of March.

1-4-06: Cleaned out this part of my profile for the new year. Speaking of which, happy (albeit belated) new year everybody!
