You're my what?

The plot thickens...

So Ron's stuck his foot in it again. I'd have to say APWB Dumbledore had a lot to do with that. He fills that boy's head with such nonsense.

Ginny's been royally screwed here. She was hoping to hook up with Harry, but got tossed out of France thanks to her brother and Dumbledore. She's going to nail Ron's ass for this, but Molly's going to have her own ass chewed too. I hope she can hook up with someone deserving of her.

What started out as a potential disaster for Nymmy has turned out to be a blessing in disguise. She and Remus may be able to marry in France...and even stay there. That's fantastic. It's time Remus had something wonderful happen to him.

Harry's wandmaking is interesting, to say the least. He's got a hobby and it's turning out to be a useful one. I hope he can craft a nice wand for Tonks and make it better than Ollivander's. It appears he can really customize them. I thought it was interesting that he infused Hermione's with his own blood. I wonder why... Did he do that to Gabby's?

I read in one of your responses that you can't write sex scenes. Don't feel bad--they're not easy to write without sounding silly...or outright disgusting. My suggestion is to try to visualize it, marry it to the best sex you've ever had, and then write it down. But take your time with it. There's love there too. Just imagine what you'd like or like to do and how you'd want your partner to respond. Another good thing to do is use metaphor--I like to use fire references, the abyss, powerful water references. That kind of thing.

Sex scenes don't have to involve the F-bomb or a lot of other foul language. They can be beautiful and erotic without that. Practice a bit off-story until you get it right. You're a good writer, so I expect you'll figure it out.

Good job!
