Chapter 6!

[pyjamapants]

Woohoo! Chapter 6 of The Witches of Gilford has completed its journey through the queue.

Chapter 5 left off with the following scene:

"It wasn't until he heard a soft, barely audible snore that Severus realized Hermione had fallen asleep. There was no way to extract himself from her embrace without awakening her. He was loath to move her, and Severus supposed that there were far worse ways to be tortured to the brink of insanity than having a beautiful witch fall asleep in your arms. After he carefully shifted himself into a more comfortable position, Severus grabbed the knitted throw off the back of the sofa and covered the two of them. Knowing that he would pay dearly if his neck were not better situated, Severus transfigured the end of the sofa to better suit his needs and slowly drifted off to sleep."

I had SUCH a hard time responding to chapter 5's reviews, knowing how chapter 6 began. :) It's nice to have the cat out of the bag.

i can see how that could be a problem. sometimes authors have said things like, "we'll have to wait and see what happens," or other things to hedge bets when readers speculate about what will happen next. :)

This was very satisfactory, you know. The morning-after was pure fun. I'll love how they'll promote criticism of the book in their session. Hermione would surely pinpoint all possible point any individual witch might disagree with the book and make it into a thunderstorm of critical ideas from the audience themselves.

What a pleasant surprise! Thanks for coming to visit my LJ to leave a review! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

These days, I'm in the midst of writing their presentation. I've been dreading it, mostly because I really feel like it needs to be the funniest chapter of the story... hopefully I'll be able to deliver.

I LOVE your graphic!

Thanks. Your icon sparks my imagination too. My husband shoots those things.

I have full faith in the presentation chapter and your skills. Surely, it will come out nicely.

Thanks for your confidence! I've been slowly hacking away at it. I wrote a quick 500 words the other day under the guise of 'It's easier to go back and edit something than it is to stare at a blank screen.' I suspect that will be the key for the presentation chapter.

Might I friend you?

Of course. I'll friend back, ok?
