I think if I was Harry I'd want to continue the home schooling option. Not having Snape would be a powerful incentive. Having someone besides the ghost for history would probably be enlightening as well. Should you decide to continue the story, I would recomend that you don't bother to recount any thing that is the same as canon. A brief reference could be used if it is necessary to establish the relationship between events. I would love to read more but I understand that if the writing of it is not satisfying to you we are not likely to be reading it. Thanks for writing. W.
