lol I loved this story! The interview was hilarious!!! and the ending... loved it!
Nestled in a grove of trees at the northwest corner of the estate, lie the ruins of Harry Potter's childhood home, the site of his first and final confrontation with He-Whose-Name-We-Still-Refuse-To-Speak-Aloud. A hundred yards away sits the Potter family cemetery; confidential sources tell Witch Weekly that Potter leaves a bouquet of calla lilies on his mother's grave every Halloween.
I love what you called voldemort! lol

Mags, how did I miss this story? I found it in a round about friends-of-friends thing on livejournal where it was recc'd by someone. This is a delightfully funny little piece. The way the POV switches from the written word to the narration at the end flows very well. The sleazy yet somewhat respectable writing style of the interview was very well crafted. thanks for sharing. ...art

Thanks so much for your kind review, art. I'm glad you liked it. It was written for a gen ficathon, so didn't get much airplay in H/G circles -- and in truth, I didn't pimp it as much as I do some of my other stories. Still, it was fun to write, and the departure from my usual style was a refreshing challenge.

very well done.
it's a very fun look at what their future after the books may be like.
that little surprise at the end of the interview was funny too...though i doubt anyone (even Ginny) would really go as far as to do something like that...we can still dream it, and hey...i still laughed about it.
two thumbs up...:D |

I really liked this piece. It stood suprisingly well as a short glimpse into a future many of us would like to see Harry and Ginny enter. I, personally would have enjoyed the interview lasting a bit longer, but the nature of the work procluded it. The lack of typos and good grammar structure made it an easy read in a writing vehicle that can cause trouble (the chopped up interview).
I hope you keep writing. |

| Thank you! I was tempted to make this longer, but I have the
unfortunate tendency to write one-shots that are either short and pithy
or of near-epic proportions; in this case, I think the short and pithy
suited the material much better. I'm glad you enjoyed it, and hope you
enjoy my other stories as well!

| I really enjoyed this fic, just the right mix of humour and seriousness. Any chance of turning it into something longer? |
MagnoliaMama Saturday 20th August 2005 10:12 | Perils of Fame (Author Response) |
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Unfortunately, something
like this really doesn't have enough heft to it to support anything
more substantial, so it will stay as it is. With luck, though, I'll be
inspired to write more H/G before long. Thanks for reviewing!

Loved it. This was really cute and very on character. Having worked the last 4 years with reporters all I can say is you hit it on the head.
Oh, and at the risk of sounding too much like one of those reporters, what was the answer to the boxers/briefs question in your mind. |
MagnoliaMama Saturday 20th August 2005 10:10 | Perils of Fame (Author Response) |
Thank you! I used to be a reporter myself, so I have some experience with slipping into that perspective.
what was the answer to the boxers/briefs question in your mind. LOL. If I tell, Ginny will flay me alive! 
Thanks for reviewing!

Lovely, lovely. That story made me happy, that did. And Harry Potter lives in Somerset! Whoo!
You know, I really am tempted to go on a walk round Ottery, just beacuse it's sort of where the Weasleys might live. |
MagnoliaMama Saturday 20th August 2005 10:06 | Perils of Fame (Author Response) |
Thank you! I'm so glad I brought a smile to your face. I thought of you when I put the Potters in Somerset. If you do go for a stroll around Ottery, you'll have to take pictures and post them online.
Thanks for reviewing!

Hah. I do love a good interview. Or a gossip tabloid questionaire at most! Great way to turn the tables in the end.
