Anything you want to say, say it. Especially if it's some ghastly obvious mistake I've made repeatedly... I hate doing that. Or you could tell me how absolutely wonderful my story is *Shifty eyes*.

It looks really awesome, in all honesty! I think this is going to be a fun read.

Thanks . Now I'm just scouring other Rtb's for the Harry Potter book words. I'm looking for a badly written one so that there aren't very many comments to remove .

That's quite an interesting group of readers, and I look forward to see what you are going to do with it. How Dumbledore's family will react, or James and Lily, and all that. Are they just reading, or will they have some way of interfering with what happens?

No interference. It's simple to get to know the living characters, and to prepare them for greeting them once they die.

Pity. I always like it when they can change the future. But I hope certain people get a very ... fitting reception when they bit the dust.

Yep, I'm going to do Epilogue's full of them greeting the dead in short drabbles.

Glad you think so . I'm in the process of writing the first reading chapter right now. I'm just worried about getting all the personalities that I have to make up balanced and realistic

Can't wait might be the better expression Hm ... not sure if it's easier because we don't know these people well or harder because you have to invent their personality yourself. In any case, good luck, and I look forward to more.

So, is this story going to sort of told in real time? I mean, when they're reading the first book, will the whole adventure of the Philosopher's Stone be going on, and the same with the rest of the books. So, when Cedric dies in the book, will he appear in the after-life?

Dimcairien- I haven't decided to be honest. Depends on how the story is going by the fourth book . No one dies before then (Well... Except Quirrell, but he would never be allowed in the reading.), so I'll see how the story goes and if adding more would work.

Ah, okay. It's quite common to not have everything figured out before you start writing, I know I didn't. I hope you get it figured out at some point.

I think this has the potential to be a great fic. I've never seen one where the afterlife people read. Most of the ones I've seen involve time travel. I'm going to keep a lookout for this one.

Thanks for all the support guys . I have a new found respect for Rtb authors, I didn't realize how plain difficult it was to balance all the characters without commenting every other word.

Post by kumainpink on Jul 10, 2012 12:57:22 GMT -5
Yeah, it isn't always easy. Sometimes, it's hard to pick what shouldn't and should be said. It's so easy to follow cliches...

A good start to the story, look forward to seeing how it progresses.

As I said, my respect for other Rtb authors is now much higher after finishing my first chapter *nods* took more work and a lot more time then I realized!

Post by RogueNya on Jul 13, 2012 23:05:04 GMT -5
*nods* It is interesting to see how hard something is once you do it yourself.
But anyways it was a great chapter, I quite liked the comments ^^

I read the next chapter and it's fantastic. I like Ariana's personality. It was interesting to have Merope say the thing about leaving Harry on the doorstep.
Can't wait to read more!

I am quite annoyed... Just got half way through the second chapter- and it got lost *sigh*. Shows how much I forget to save work.

I quite enjoyed the first reading chapter, but I just wanted to point out that James would already know that Peter was a traitor. As that's fairly major, I do think it would be wise to edit it so you don't confuse others.
I like what you've done so far and I look forward to your next chapter. Sorry about loosing it. That's happened to me too and it's extremely frustrating at times.

Dimcarien- I have reason for making James no suspect Peter. In this, James is figuring that Peter was forced to tell the truth, through means of extreme torture- or legilimency. He doesn't realizes that Peter had actually done it on purpose.

Okay, that makes a bit more sense. Boy will they be in for a surprise when PoA rolls around.
