    2,000 words, abandoned, and this:

    Hatred to best of buddies in the blink of an eye = a bit rushed.

    1/5. Trash of the lowest order.

    A little off topic, but I am freaking sick and tired of seeing the word "know" in place of "now." They aren't even pronounced the same.

    Edit: Also, why is this in For Review? Old thread is old.

    To be rerated and then deleted if need be, I'd say.

    My vote is delete/5.

    Wise words.


    I've seen stories that are 'rushed' before (I'd consider my own to be a bit rushed to start with..) but that, eh, thats another word I haven't bothered to think up yet.

    ...urk.

    I think we're getting snobbier with age--reading the reviews from several years ago is like watching a satire. All these old threads that have been dug up--people were a lot more lenient back then.

    Of course we are, its just development.

    What is new and original now, will be cliche and old in a few years. Apart from some gems, of course. Few stories last the test of time around here though.

    Bad writing is universal, across all stages of development. I still wish there was a good Harry/Naricssa/Bellatrix story.

    Sometimes I wonder whether HP fanfiction will last so long that the old and unoriginal will become refreshing and back in fashion again.
