I just wanted to let you know that I have rec’d your story and posted a link to it in the new HP LJ community hpmssgmoments, or Harry Potter Missing Moments. Your story fits nicely into canon and makes a nice addition to our archives. Please feel free to come over and take a look at what we are doing and your entry (posted under "The Darkest Art"). We are a small group at the moment, but we hope to get your story some new readers and some new reviews as we grow.

I know you probably think I forgot about you after asking for the rec. Life just got busy and I haven't had a chance to read the story yet.
I really enjoyed it. Your description of the snow was very well done and brought me back to a time that I was skiing and the resort got 51 inches in one day. The huge snow flakes falling and were just like you described. The way they floated down and settled in a cool, white muffler over every surface capable of supporting them. I have only seen snow like this twice but your description was perfect.
Don't tell anyone but I am a little bit of a romantic and I think you captured the playful essence of young love that is not yet realized wonderfully. Ginny has a playful spirit and sees Harry as a great friend. Harry is totally captivated by Ginny but trying not to let on because Dean is still in the picture. Been there done that. It reminded me of the time before Julie and I were dating. The seen you painted for the reader reveals all of the emotions that Harry and Ginny are feeling toward each other without the feelings ever being formalized between them or seemingly even to themselves.
Very well done. |

What an adorable scenario! You've perfectly captured HBP Harry, savage beast and all. |

Thank you Mags! I'm happy you feel that way, as I tried hard to keep it canon and not let my mind wander off!  |

Aw! That was just about the sweetest story ever! That ending was utter perfection.
I bet if Dumbledore had seen the snow angels it would have sparked one of the twinkles in his eye he is so famous for!.

"Just because you're the Captain doesn't mean you get to play snow angels while the rest of us practice, you know."
There was a gentle note of something in the way Ginny spoke to him that had Harry's numb mouth lifting in a smile.
That's really good, and I love the end, of course. Very well done! |

| What a fantastic missing moment. The end just had me smiling like a complete idiot. I loved the fact that Ginny didn't fall all over with an excess of sympathy after the bludger; that would have seemed OOC. And, in fact, everyone was very in character. It's wonderful; one of my new favourites. |
Bring and Fly Monday 30th January 2006 08:23 | Quidditch in the Snow (Author Response) |
Thank you, Wild Magelet. I find it quite a challenge to write 'Missing Moments' and keep everyone within canon, so I'm happy you felt I got Ginny, and the others, about right. *phew*  |

| BaF--this was beautiful. You know, St. Mags is leading a discussion on the SQ fluff thread right now about using the weather to move a fluff line. This would be a great example. You are a brilliant writer--and don't let anyone, especially Cara, tell you differently. |

I'm glad you enjoyed the piece, and the imagery. I certainly had fun writing it. |

All of that wonderful storytelling from just 2 lines in the book.
I'm a big fan of missing moments and this one is a real doozy. It's filled with such an adorable, clueless male, stuffed with self-denial and a smart girl who tries nothing more than to be a friend.
Just wonderful! |

Thank you, Misslara.
I do appreciate you leaving me such a lovely review --and a great summation! I wish I had thought of that when I was trying to write a hook-you-in summary for this piece. And in truth, the story would not have come into being without the encouragement of my Beta. |

Wow,
for a quick-hit 'missing moment' I think you have provided a great
scene for all to either to picture ourselves in or to reminisce about;
mine would be the later. The gurmblings of early morning
practices (anyone who has played a sport knows these too well),
innocent playful funning around, yet flirtatious at the same time and
the inadvertent loss of cool points' when you screw up where everyone
can see. The beginning with the description of the snow and
Harry's thoughts drifting with the snow was a great start.
~Nice job!

Thank you, Paladin.
I really enjoy knowing when something I've written resonates with my readers experience --lets me know when I've got it right! Ah yes, the 'inadvertent loss of cool points'. Ahem. Yes indeed; very blush-worthy. :) |

This was probably the best snow ficlet i've read!
It described Harry's characters perfectly, used fantastic vocabulary, had a very good grabber at the beggining, and was still realistic, but magical too. It wasn't cliche or too religious in any way. I really enjoyed it. |

Erm, yes (blushing now); I'm delighted you enjoyed so many facets of the story and left such a lovely review to let me know. I appreciate it. :) |

| Fantastic story. Very well written. The language is descriptive without going overboard. Charaterization of Harry, and especially of Ginny, are excellent. This could have come right out of canon. It's a perfect missing moment. |
Bring and Fly Tuesday 17th January 2006 06:33 | Quidditch in the Snow (Author Response) |

Erm, goodness; it's rather warm in here, isn't it? You are very kind to leave such a lovely review. I'm delighted you thought so and stopped by to let me know. |
