I don't understand how your stories have so few reviews? I admit, I almost never leave feedback (so hex me) but your Severus and Daniella stories are just fantastic. I've read them through at least three times and I get hooked every time. I have to be careful whenever I go to read any of your longer stories, because I know I wont want to do anything else until I get through them. It's amazing to me how you've managed to create such an interesting, intricate back story. It stays perfectly true to the Potter novels, filling in blanks without changing any details. I love your work and hope that you continue for a very long time.

Author's Response: I think the problem is that people get into the story and forget that it's not a book, therefore forget to leave their views, comments, etc. I'm not a professional writer but enjoy what I produce, and am happy that people are reading. However, I'm thrilled when people contact me. Thank you for that.

I'm in the process of re-editing the trilogy. I'm almost finished and have fynnsmom to thank for her editing skills. I'm blending the trilogy with Once Upon A Time. Both can be read on their own, but you can see the connection between them now.

I like research and I liked the idea of staying in canon. Everything needs a background/history, and I felt that Severus and Albus didn't have theirs covered well enough by JKR.

Keep in touch and let me knkow what you think if you read further.

I thought she was with Severus? Now she's going to be caught between the two. I mean, I think she goes better with Snape, but Remus seems alright, but it's just not right...
Lynn

Author's Response: She was, but due to the circumstances, they (particularly Severus) had agreed to be apart. Her relationship with Remus was one born from friendship (and one that had sparked way back in the beginning of "Creating a Ghost"). This is a long story. Keep reading. I think you'll like it. And, thank you for the great review.

that was absolutely fantastic. I read all 65 chapters and was hooked from the first one. you thought of everything and carried it through every part of the harry potter books. I was worried about the ending because i thought severus might die as he did in the books but was so glad you twisted it so that he undertook a new identity so they could be happy. Snape is my favourite character so i read alot of fan fiction based on him so that in my mind his character may find solace. Alas, I have found the best snape fan fic! I feel relieved after reading this. It was really amazing. thank you for writing it, its a true master piece.

Author's Response: Wow! Thank you. What a wonderful review. I do so love getting stroked :-D
"Life In The Shadows" was the last story of a trilogy. Did you read the others? They build up to this one.
I hope you keep reading and reviewing. I could get used to it.

oh i will keep my eyes open for more stories from you. maybe continue on with adrianne.

Author's Response: Sorry. No. I went backwards to WWII. Albus and his "plan". Although, there are two "shorts" with Severus and Daniella.

Hope I keep you interested.

It's been a powerful story and one I wish could have a happy ending with the family reunited. Who knows maybe they will be if not in life then in death. You write well and I've enjoyed reading this series very much even though my dear Dumbledore wasn't portrayed as a sterling character---but then again we all have faults, even Minerva McGonagall. Did I tell you thank you for sharing? Well anyway thank you for several hours of enjoyable reading. Hope to read more of your fine writing.

Author's Response: Thank you for your wonderful support and comments, but...

There is one part left, the Epilogue, then, two shorts, and the start of a connecting prequel. I'm not finished yet. ;-D

This is my favourite HPFF story - I am hooked. Could the necklase from Dumbledore contain Pheonix tears to heal snape after Naginni tries to kill him. I hope so because I really don't want him to die. Please update soon because now that I know there are only 2 chapters left I can't wait.

Author's Response: Next chapter is up. Epilogue is next. Enjoy!!

well at least the torture would keep the Deatheater persona a little longer.

Author's Response: Honey, he can "torture" me like that any time! :-D

i understand completely about 1st loves you never forget them no matter what you do.

Author's Response: Yes, they can be very powerful and profound, and have a deep inpact on the way we behave in future relationships. I just love Sev's vulnerability here. He rarely shows it.

Author's Response: Mmmmm.............no......
