I finished this about half an hour ago, and now I'm walking around all dizzy and bleary-eyed.
To channel Harry, that was just brilliant! A immediate OMG review is up at skyehawke, but now I want to talk about it some more... Isn't there a discussion help comm for adoring fans?
You've got me feeling guilty for dragging you back to LJ! I was wondering if you'd succumb to the lure of new fic. Bad timing on my part.
I saw the review! Thank you so much. I wonder if this is how JKR feels? The emotion's the same, the scale of impact is quite a bit smaller on my part.
Other than my betas (two of whom are inaccessable right now), you're the only one who's read it so far. You can be a community of one.
Actually, you are the first person to read it through in its present incarnation without the taint of earlier bad drafts. I wonder what that would be like?
(my lj hiatus consists of lurking, now. VERY BAD FROG. ALSO very weak)
JKR- well, nice lady, but I'm one of those sad unfortunates who prefer the fandom.
I'm going to get all nerdy on you and say, "but drafts are manna to the uber geek!" Really! We - the fans - would sit around and compare drafts, and where you cut out, and drool over the 'unpublished' scenes, and wonder if it could fit in. Because, well, greedy.
* am still giddy happy and celebrating with icecream with caramel and reading it again *
