Voted Best New Author (Lumos), Best SS/HG Romance (Amortentia) and Best SS/HG Angst
(Diffindo) in The New Library Awards.
Seventh-year student Hermione Granger decides to marry the one eligible wizard who did not ask for her--the horrid but powerful Severus Snape. All is not sweetness and light. Be careful what you ask for. Or, as has been said by many a wise witch, "Marry in haste; repent in leisure." MLC

With the completion of Care of Magical Creatures my fanfic output is going to slow way down, but if you want to be sure to know when new fics post, please follow me on twitter. I don't tweet much, but I'll surely tweet that kind of thing.
About Mia
I came to the world of Harry Potter relatively early, after first resisting it because it just seemed too trendy. But when the first book came out in paperback in the US I picked it up at the airport when I was about to catch a flight, and two chapters in knew I would be ordering the original from amazon.co.uk in hardcover as soon as I landed.
I came to fanfic late, waiting until after I'd read DH. That means I've been totally obsessed with the fanfic world of Harry Potter, and most specifically the SS/HG ship, since August of '07.
I'm helplessly and hopelessly hooked.
Reviews for Care of Magical Creatures
Yep, loved it! knew I would. You deserve the nomination. Congrats. Thanks for writing such a wonderful and addicting story!
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
You crack me up. Thank you!
Holy crap! I haven't even read the chapter yet, but I'm reviewing your banner. Very cool! I like it! I will come back and review after I read the chappie, though I know I will love it...have I ever not!?
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
I know, I know, isn't it pretty?
oh yes...how i love this story. i did like that theory of physical strength equating to magical strength, one causing the other. i don't think i've read that before anywhere else. and loosing the war because griffendor house is too busy shagging!!! love it. thank you so much.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you! (Your icons are killing me. LOL!)
And yes, the Gryfs too busy shagging--I have to admit, that made me laugh while I was writing it!
I loved Hermione's chat with Ginny. Poor, ignorant Ginny! ;-)
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
I'm having way too much fun with Ginny and sex. LOL!
I really, really loved this chapter, and it's good to know that Halloween is almost 1 1/2 months away, so we can get more off them together...Great work!gab
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Don't relax just yet.... (Thank you!)
Another sterling chapter, but I will confess, I'm growing restless with all the domesticity and fluffiness. I feel the need for a hefty dose of action, angst and adventure. In your own time of course, you're the author.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Fasten your seatbelt. It's about to get bumpy! Thank you!
May I be the first to say - another brilliant chapter in an increasingly complex, layered, engrossing story! Marvelous use of the fact that love changes perceptions - Ginny sees the man she loves as the paragon of all men, while Hermione knows she's got the best deal around if they can just survive the coming storm. And Draco just sees darkness, the poor sod. If he'd given her his evil little message two and a half weeks ago, he might've had a shot at getting her to believe his nonsense. But, bless her heart, she already knows better.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you so much--and you're spot on re: "the eyes of love" and all that!
Poor Draco. Nobody takes him seriously.
Very nice chapter, the flow was good and there were a lot of little extras that really made it have a more canon feel.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thanks, I'm glad you like it. It's very AU, of course, but hopefully canon-compliant!
Oh... oh... That was such a beautiful ending! *sniff* Thank you so much for this amazing, astounding story. You never ceased to surprise me at every turn with each development, and I looked forward to each new update... when it came, I would be so happy and joyfully read it... this story was just wonderful. There aren't enough adjectives in the world to express how much I adored this story. Thank you so much for making the world a little brighter. ~Katie
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
And there aren't enough words to express how much your reviews have helped me and lifted me. Thank you so much.
Beautiful! I like the fact that you ended it where you did. This part of their story ends here. It has been a lovely journey following this story. I look forward to reading more of your wonderful storytelling.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
I'm so thrilled and relieved that you feel this was the place to end it. It felt like the right place to me, as well. Thank you so much for all your reviews and for going on this journey with me.
*sniff* *grabs tissue* that was terrifying, halarious, touching and beautiful. thanks beyond measure for sharing this amazing story with us. you rule and reign.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
~squishes you~Thank you for being here every step of the way. And I'm so happy that you liked it.
Simple amazing, I'm sorry to see it end but what a wonderful ending. Thank you.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
It hurts to let go, but it was the right place and the right time. Thank you so very much.
LOVED this story. It was so intense at times and I'm happy that baby Snape arrived safetly. Think you could do a whole new story about raising the baby *hint hint*
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you so much. I don't know if we'll have more here, but if there is, it will be appended to the fic so you will get notified. For now, it's finished.
I'm lying in my couch, the laptop on my knees and I'm speechless, or wordless to be more precise. You are an incredible author. I've not enough words to describe how I feel right now. I think I'm happy. Really happy, as if the world has suddenly stopped iand peace has descended upon the humankind. A moment of pure bliss. I could never thank you enough to have written this wonderful piece of work here, and I'll remember it for a very long time and reat it again in the future. I'm sure of it.Abunch of chocolate or flowers or whatever pleases you *bows deeply*
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Only if you share the chocolate and the flowers with me, the same way you've shared this experience. Thank you so much,
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
, for being such a faithful and enthusiastic reviewer. There were times when I'm not sure I could have kept writing w/o reviews such as yours.
Thank you for sharing this story with us. Just fantastic.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you so very much. I'm thrilled that you liked it.
God what a horrid name, lol. It was truly a lovely story, and bravo to you for writing it. Thank you so much.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
LOL. I think it fits people named Hermione and Severus, though. Thank you so very much for liking my story. Thank you!
I still say it's the best thing I've read this year.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you! That's high praise and I'm very grateful for it.
oh my :'-) wonderful, just wonderful
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you so very much!
Oh no! It's not the end of my favorite story, is it? Please give us a sequel about Gussie.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Yes, I'm afraid it's the end. It hurts, but it was the right place. Thank you so very much!
Oh! What a lovely, lovely ending... *Sniffle*
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you. I'm thrilled that you liked it.
this chapter made me love Draco... :) (but of course not as much as I love Snape)
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Well, Draco finally came through.
*conented sigh*
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you. That gives ME a contented sigh....
brillant!
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you--I'm glad you liked it!
Well, as Snape said in one of the previous chapters, that girl can out-Dark Lord the Dark Lord at his darkest. She is just cruel! In the best way possible, of course. Man, that was just the best birthday ever. I'd like to have a birthday like that. And it appears that for quickest updates, I must come here. Can you believe that before last December I had never read a Potter fanfic and I thought that SSHG was icky? Now I'm a memeber of 2 archives, one specifically geared toward the odd couple, and making Sev and Hermione Photoshop art. If this can happen to me in a mere 3 1/2 months, I greatly want to know what will happen to this marriage by Christmas. (Always assuming that they both live through it, of course.)
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
I started reading fanfic in July, after finishing DH. I started writing two or three weeks later. So you're just a wee bit newer to it than I am.
I'll be posting your gorgeous banner with my next chapter!

Woot-woot!!!
