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
I soooo hate Lucius right now... and I love that Severus does not share *sighs wishfully*
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Oh, no. Severus is selfish and doesn't play well with others. LOL!

This is BRILLIANT. I love the fact that it was done over a short period of time, not trying to smush lots of weeks and months in there. I love the humor.

Thank you so very much for taking the time to tell me!

Gorgeous as usual. Loved the opening scene, beautiful and sweet. Wish it wouldn't go dark though but I guess that part of the story has to be completed. Update soon, your killing me between updates here.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Aw, thank you.
Yes, this story has some dark-ish elements. Or maybe just angsty. I get confused about what is considered "dark" and what is accepted as angst!
But it's also got sweet stuff.

Ouch! Lucius is a bastard. Now Severus is going to have that thought in his mind that she coud cheat on him and he would never know.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Lucius is not a nice man.

A wonderful story, Im shocked its your first fanfic. So beautifully written I love the little subtle humours and atention to detail. Please say there will be an update soon!!
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Yes, the next update will be soon! Thank you!
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)

Severus is surely too intelligent to fall for Lucius's taunts at this stage... although the possibility of revels is rather scary. Intriguing!
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you!
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you!
This is disturbing, and I'm still pushing for a happy ending.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you. It was meant to disturb. And I still am pushing for a happy ending, too!

Lucius seems remarkably well informed for someone neither in Gryffindor nor at Hogwarts.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Lucius makes it his business to be well-informed about anything that could give him a political leg up.

You can't believe a word a Malfoy says. It is so fustrating watching them ignore their feelings for each other. I hope Severus doesn't let her be in a revel. He would lose her for sure.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
I don't think Severus shares. In fact, I know he doesn't.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)

Ohhh that conversation was absolutely hilarious. I laughed out loud. You have kept them in character perfectly - respecttt. I'm glad I've only just started reading it and there's so much more already up.. A-wahoo.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you! I hope you continue to like it!

Loved the update - this story has so many wonderful twists to it - cannot wait for the next.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)

Very enjoyable chapter, but oh, how I would like to kick Lucius Malfoy right in the nuts. He's nasty!
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
I first thought you wrote that Lucius Malfoy was tasty!
I agree with you on both counts!

Very nice chapter. Oh, my gods, I'd love to be awoken up like that!! And Lucius - what game is he playing at?Please update soon....
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you! Update on the way, as soon as I get the html coded. I should learn how to write without italics. Sigh.

Wow, Lucius is certainly spitting venum. Why do I have a feeling my two favorite people are going to have a rough patch?
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Sigh. I fear you're correct.

OK how did Albus KNOW about their night???
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
I realize it was a very long night -- but if you recall, in the middle of it, they arrived in his office with Severus in a dither about their vows! That's what he knew about!

This chapter left me with a feeling of dread for what was to come of Hermione (I keep reading ahead but I come here to review). At the same time though, knowing that our couple is finally beginning to accept what they feel for each other (well sort of) allows the story to give positive feelings as well - you aren't sending the reader into a downward spiral that they have to claw their way out of later. lolAs always your writing is exceptional, allowing the reader to feel what the characters are feeling without bashing us over the head with wordy explanations. Absolutely incredible writing skills! Great work!!
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you so much -- I really don't want to bash readers over the head and always hope that the meaning and emotion is there, despite that!

Wow! What a wedding! What a scene. I hope you are feeling all right, not suffering burnout or anything.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
I've got my second wind and am madly working on a new chapter, even as we speak! Thank you. (And I'm glad you liked the wedding!)

I would have left you reviews for all the chapters I have missed, but I simply could not stand to pause until I had read to this point! Wonderful, as always. You have managed to weave so many elements into this story. I am very much looking forward to more. :)
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
You are SO sweet! Thank you! And I'm thrilled to see you updating DENIAL!

This was one of my favorite chapters! I like how we get to see Snape's issues with his past, and that he had to face the reasons his mother behaved as she did. I also really like the 'is it magic or is it real' aspect.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you! He's had a tough past.
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you! He's had a tough past.
Wow, that was ...well...intense! So heartbreaking. He really does care about her but how much is him and how much is the vow-magic? I'll just pretend it's all him...
I love it, as always!
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you so much! Hermione will work it out; I have faith in her!

Wow. Simply wow. Well, I no longer have any idea what happened at the beginning of this chapter (I'm sure it was wonderful though!), but phewee, nice smut, hun! Totally captured all the emotions there, the haste, the desperation. I'd say you should take up poetry, but no, don't do that, I want more chapters like this :D
Response from mia madwyn (Author of Care of Magical Creatures)
Thank you!

Oh please tell me more is coming soon-- I'll be madder than Bella if there isn't more soon!! OOOHHHHH!!! This was so hot and natural and wonderful Happy New Year indeed!
