Hello Allison.

If you would like for me to inform you when I am going to start writing the sequel let me know, or just look out for The Phoenix Sa13+.
Yes please. I would love to know when you get, 'The Phoenix Sa-13+' ff up. Allison, you've done a great job on writing your story. I loved it all, and many, many times I sat on the edge of my seat in wonder reading through the posts. This is a very good place to leave the story for now, and I look forward to reading where you pick it up from. Do you have any of your outline written, or rough draft? I am anxious to read more of this story.
This bit was my favorite part of the post:
Quote:
“I must warn you that times will become progressively difficult as Lord Voldemort gains followers and I must ask you to prepare yourself for these dark times that lie ahead of us. We have already lost so much, and perhaps one of our greatest losses is Sirius Black. While the Ministry has construed Sirius as being an enemy to wizarding kind, he was in fact a hero and a brave man that fought fiercely for just causes, and more importantly for the ones he loved. For those of you who did not know him personally know that we suffered a great loss, and let us hope that whatever world he has now entered will bring him more peace than this one.”
And this part is written brilliantly!

Perhaps when one reads about the great wars of men and women they get a vision of glory and fame. They get a vision of good triumphing over evil with one man stepping atop a great hill to proclaim that his people are free. And perhaps while the end result does bring great happiness to the people, perhaps it is too often overlooked the ugliness that comes with war. Perhaps in all the glory we forget to see that with this victory came a lot of loss, and sometimes these losses cannot easily be forgotten.
Was it in the book, or the movie? I can't remember? But, I love it anyway.
I'll miss coming here and reading this ff, and look forward to your next. I'm sure it will be at least as good as this one was, and possibly even better.
