Wow. That's fantastic. You've really delved deep into the character and developed her as a person, she's no longer a name barely mentioned in the books, but a real person with feelings, a heart, and a lot on her shoulders. The letter is well written, thought out and slightly heartbreaking, but brilliant all the same. Great writing. ~ ginny_babe92 ~

Thanks for the review, ginny_babe92. I've always wondered about Andromeda, and that's what persuaded me to write this story. I had it thought out for a very long time before I wrote it. Andromeda is my favorite OC to write- I've given her a small role in another one of my fafnfics as well. Thanks for the review!

I've never wondered about Andromeda to tell you the truth, but now I wonder why. I'll have to check out your other fic(s), coz this one's good. And sorry I signed that ginny_babe92, my username on TPP is

but on many many other HPFF sites it's ginny_babe92, so it just came naturally. Anyway, loved your story.

I really like the letter format of this story. It was a perfect vehicle to convey everything you wanted to say. I felt as though I were Andromeda and actually could feel what she must have been feeling as she wrote this. Wonderful!

Thanks for the review,

. Actually, on other fanfic sites, my story actually had been rejected by the moderators beccause of the letter form. That's why I was very catious about putting the letter form. I think it's something you either love or you hate. I personally like it, I know a lot of people hate it. Actually, in the letter form it's easier to get thoughts across. Thanks for the review!

Response from notsosaintly (Reviewer)

I can't understand why someone would reject something because it was in letter form. I suppose we (meaning archive owners and moderators) all have our rules. Still ... I think this format is perfectly legitimate and has been used frequently in the literary world. You did an excellent job, and I'm glad you took the chance posting it.
