Age 59, I have been a Severus and Alan Rickman fan for a couple years. I post SS/HG stories.
I went to NY last week to see Seminar (Jan 4, 20012) It was wonderful.
Shades of Severus in his character and his house. I was priviledge to see Alan up close an personal after the play.

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Hope more is up soon.
WELL DONE!
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
Thank you! Thanks for the review.
Oh, this is SO good! I'm one of the many who don't believe Sev died at the end of WWII, so stories about his continuing existence are my favorites. This story has fast become one of my favorites in that category! I can't wait to read their romance blossom!
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
Thank ou so much, I eat and sleep SS/HG so I know what you mean. I wrote another one shot today. Thank you so much for liking the story there is so much more of it to tell. 46 chapters and counting.
This is great. I'm really enjoying it.
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
Thank you, I'm glad you are and that you let me know :)
Grrrr, Albus. I like that Severus and Hermione are finding each other, but really, that takes the cake.
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
He but with out him there would be no story LOL Yep he was quite a puppet master wasn't he? I'm glad ou like the story.Thank you for the review
Hmm, feels like progress, but the going is never easy is it? Thanks for the update!
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
It was progress but no the goings not easy and they have much to go through still. I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter. Thanks for the review.
Oh, after that terrifying cliffhanger, this chapter more than makes up for it. That Dumbledore! Glad you showed us the conversation with him. Wonder when the lovebirds will figure it out... Well, they've got better things to think about.
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
Again Honored. I'm so glad you enjoy the story. Yes, he did pull the strings but he honestly thought he was doing the best he could for both of them. I can't remember how long it takes them to catch on, they are rather intelligent people. :) Yes, they will be very busy for awhile, a lot happens in the next chapters.Thank you for the review.
Another clue with the tingling... But what does it all mean???? I wonder if he will blow up or not. At least he likes Poppy.
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
Yep he and Poppy have a lot of history. I hope you like the next chapter, thanks for the review.
THIS IS A GREAT STORY, IM SO GLAD HE WAS SAVED THE BOOK BROKE MY HEART, ITS A MEAN SPELL TOO ALL ALONE FOR YEARS AND STUFF MEAN JUST PLAIN MEAN!!!!
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
I agree the book is heart breaking, I start all my stories after the war, so far. I'm glad you like the story. Mean in some ways but it would be worse if he'd been awake all the time.Thanks so much fr your review. Hope you keep reading :)
I loved it! I laughed a lot imagining Hermione acting as Luna to others... and I'm enjoying this Severus.
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
I'm glad you enjoyed this chapter...I'm glad you like this Severus. I don;t think too mnay really like him this way LOL. He's not nasty enough.
I like how they are slowly wearing away the spell. I can't wait to see how they manage to remove the rest of the layers.
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
Thank you, I hope you continue to enjoy the story. It kind of growing and growing...Thanks for the review.
Glad to see such a welcoming reunion between Severus and Poppy. Nice to know there are only 3 more aspects of the spell to break. Looking forward to seeing how / what breaks them!
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
Are there three?? I thought two but then its been some time since i wrote this beginning. I hope you will continue to enjoy the way the story unfolds. Thanks so much for the review.
Response from Jinxie (Reviewer)
He he he, two have already been broken. ;) I can imagine. I believe you mentioned in another response the story's supposed to be over 40 chapters?
Mwahahaha! What will Poppy say to that? Intriguing little side ability with Severus' head.
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
Thank you, I'm glad you are reading the chapters.
Yay, she knows he's there!
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
Thank you for the review, glad you like it
Finally found this! I love the beginning and the premise. Looks promising!
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
Thank you, I hope you will tell me how you like the other chapters :) Thanks for reviewing.
The meeting between Poppy and Severus is wonderful. I can just imagine how heartbroken she was when he died, and how happy she is now. They might be a little careful of Minerva's heart, though, when they break it to her.
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
Thank you, I'm so glad you liked this chapter. Poppy's very important to Severus in this story. We see a lot more of her as the story unfolds. Thanks for your concern about Minerva. The chapters int he Queue.I really appreciate your review.
Hooray for Poppy! And we're now getting more info on what the spell on Severus is made up of. I know that between Poppy, Hermione, Severus and soon Minerva that they can start really making progress; we have experts on healing, transfiguration, dark arts and potions in the mix, and Hermione was also pretty good in Flitwick's Charms class as well as potions, so there's a good overview of just about all the magical disciplines working on the problem.I'm glad the next chapter is in the queue! I am so looking forward to reading about Minerva's reaction to Sev's existance! 
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
Indigo_rose, thank you for the great review I'm so glad you are enjoying the story. You put a lot of thought into all of that. Wish I was as smart as you are to have thought of all of that. LOL I believe you will get Minerva's reaction in the next one. Two more chapters are with the beta as well, I'm am working hard to get the story posted as quickly as they will allow. :)Thank you so much for letting me know you like this story.
I love this. I can't wait to find out what finally breaks the final barriers.
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
Thank you so much, I'm glad you are looking forward to finding out the mechanics of the spell. There is a lot of story left to go...
Good chapter. I have my suspicions as to who put the spell on Severus and it isn't Moldivort. ^_^
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
LOL good guess I believe. Thank you for your review.
This is fascinating:) I think I know who and why the spell was put on Severus, but I'm not going to speculate out loud, as it were, in case I'm on the wrong track. Thank you for a most fascinating tale:)Warm regards,Fizzabella
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
Thank you, I'm so glad it's got you thinking nad your probably on the right track.... I hope you will enjoy the reveal. Coming soon I think...Thanks FizzabellaJeannie
I like the idea of the layers coming loose, and I can see how maybe someone thought this might be a good way to make Severus learn something, but it just makes me want to set Dumbledore's portrait on fire, because it seems like one of his manipulations, and I don't even know it was him.
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
LOL thats very funny... I think you will find out one way or another in a chapter or two. Thank you so much for the review. I'm glad you like how the story is unfolding :)
very good. I'm glad I have another chapter I can read right now!!
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
Thank you, ch 7 is also in the Queue. I'l glad you like the story, thank you for your review.
Oh wow, thanks again for the update. Seems like there are still many more layers of this spell for Hermione and Severus to unwind. And I can't wait for McGonagall to be told that Severus is "alive". Great story so far, keep going!
Response from gersknightlady (Author of A Ghost of a Chance)
There are several more layers to the spell and each will come off at a high price. I believe she finds out in the next chapter. Thank you so much for your review. I'm really glad you like this story. It's taken on a life of it's own. It's getting quite long.... :)The next chapters in the Queue.
