I don't know about you, but I am thrilled by the news that Jo Rowling is allowing "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" to be published for all of us to enjoy! It comes out December 4, and you can pre-order at Amazon right now. Personally, I like the British cover much better than the US cover. I'll have to pick up one of each :D

So, today is July 31st, and to celebrate the birthday of one of my favourite wizards ever, I have written a new fic. Hope you all enjoy!

Notes: My thanks to my sister for the lightning fast beta - I only finished this fic a couple of hours ago. This fic incorporates certain parts of Deathly Hallows and completely ignores others. The photograph contained within was taken by me. Feedback is appreciated :-)

Hi folks! Some new photos from the HBP movie have just been released, and I thought I'd share my favourite of the bunch:

Notes: This is for ladybluestar, because she recently celebrated a birthday and has been sick. She picked the name of Harry and Hermione's daughter, and I picked their son's. While this is Harry/Hermione, it's really more about Harry and Teddy. My thanks for kiwiria for the beta.

Notes: Happy Birthday, parkergray! *smooches* You wanted a fic in which Harry and Hermione get snowed in, so you got it. Hope you're having a wonderful day ♥ ♥ ♥. This fic has not been beta'd by anyone, so any mistakes you might find are mine. I also admit to not having done a lot of research into Switzerland, so forgive me any glaringly obvious errors.

Merry Christmas, folks. Hope it's a good one ♥

Notes: This ficlet is for taradiane - happy birthday, lovely girl! ♥. This is canon compliant except for the pesky epilogue. It is a bit angsty, but there's love, too. Not beta'd so all mistakes are mine.

Title: Expecting the Unexpected
Pairing: Harry/Draco, with Ron/Hermione on the side
Rating: Light R, for adult situations and a bit of swearing
Summary: Draco conceives the baby he and Harry have longed for, but he's annoyed to find that everyone assumes Harry's the one who's pregnant.

Notes: This was written for the mpreg fest at hd_inspired. The recipient was roma_fics, so this was tailored to her wishes. My thanks to aome for the always top-notch beta. I've never written mpreg before, but I had enormous fun doing it and wouldn't say no to writing more. I've modified this slightly since it was posted for the fest. Canon compliant, with elements of the epilogue woven in where appropriate. The ebulani tree and the manner in which Draco gives birth are my own creation.
