I joined the D/G fanfiction community a couple of months ago, but I've just started trying my hand and writing my own. I really adore everyone here at FIA for being such a supportive and kind group of people. I do try to reply to every single review I get because I appreciate the effort and time that people put into giving me feedback. Plus, it's a nice way to make new friends and share the D/G love. :)

Always feel free to PM me if you want to just chat about D/G. I'm especially open to people who want to give me recommendations. :)

Wow. This is incredible. I've always been an avid D/G fan from the first time someone mentioned it to me. However, it wasn't until your essay (very insightful, backed with concrete proof) that I realized the thing that made me so attracted to the idea of the ship (which, I had always called the "spark" until now) is exactly what you wrote in your essay. I've already used some of your statements to my Draco/Ginny hating friends, and I'm emailing this essay to all my friends to further prove my point. Excellent essay, very impressive.

Truth or Dare by sugarbear_1269    (Reviews - 31)

Ginny satisfies her uppity roommate's heinous request in this game of truth or dare. Short, ridiculously cliché and designed to make you laugh once or twice. Written for the infamous Where_Is_Truth of Portkey. One shot, complete.

I Will Never Let You Leave Me by Lirie Halliwell    (Reviews - 36)

When her dreamworld begins to crack and nightmares seep into her life and overrule everything she ever believed in, Ginny has no other choice but to run. But when her hero becomes yet another threat, the Fates bring an unexpected aid to her side. Why is she haunted by the nigtmares of twisted and untrue reality? What do prophecies have to do with this? And why does it feel right to trust a former enemy?

Most of the story has been betaed by dragonsangel68, to whom I shall forever be grateful for her input and willingness to help.

Downfall by Mourning Broken Angel    (Reviews - 169)

An explosion in the Potions classroom leaves behind a raving Potions Master, a bloody Draco, and a certain redhead we all love having a moment of altruistic weakness. Ginny's kindness makes Draco very suspicious, leading him to destroy her goodwill. In retribution, Ginny decides to put some embarrassing information about Draco to good use. Ahh, nothing like one-upmanship to kindle a little romance.

Before the Storm by Glass_Mermaid    (Reviews - 491)

*Winner of the Draco/Ginny Fanfiction Award for Best Novel Length Story.* "Perhaps not everything is as black and white as it appears. Perhaps, even my father was tangled in a web of his own emotions, and in the end it spelled his death. Perhaps I too will share his fate, dying not for the cause I believe in, but for that which I cannot foresee." The ever weaving threads of our own decisions can lead to irrevocable knots, and when Lucius Malfoy is destroyed by unexpected forces, his son, Draco, is thrown into a world of political intrigue, insatiable passion and desperate gambits, opening doors he never thought to look for, and creating a life he never thought he would have as his own.

Reviewer: Jack Tamara Signed
Date: May 31, 2009 Title: Chapter 1: Prologue

This story was incredibly beautiful. I have almost never left any reviews, but once in a while, when I stumble across something that makes me really sit back and think, I will make the effort to tell the author how good the story was.

First off, I would like to say that the only thing that would've bothered me was the characterization of Ginny. I know that many others have brought this up and you have defended your view of her characterization. I admit that there is reason behind the way she is, but I have always loved the fiery and fiesty Ginny.

That being said, everything else was amazing. YOu have so many lovely descriptions that took my breath away, and the ending was perfect. There is that sense of melancholy and pain for things that can never be. Instead of writing off a happily ever after ending, you chose to give the realistic side. Because even if I am a loyal Draco/Ginny shipper, I will admit that there is a certain unrealistic side to the two of them being able to work out in JKR's world. Of course, I do occasionally enjoy the happily ever after, but it's endings like yours that stick with me, long after the others fade together.

And now, on to the part of the story that made this perhaps one of the most memorable D/G fanfics I have read so far: Draco. As many others have also mentioned, his character in this fanfic is amazing. It's real, it's raw, and it's Draco. I have never been able to stand any fanfic Dracos who have been reduced to pathetic heaps of romanticized gushiness. For me, it simply does not make sense, given his background and upbrining. Draco will never be one to overly show his emotions. Nor is he, realistically, teasing and fun. He is, just as you wrote him to be: cold, slightly withdrawn, and when you get down to it, a boy who brings emotional and mental pain to hide his own. To this, you're portrayal of him is dead accurate. And because of this, I accept that Ginny's character in this relationship builds Draco, to the point where it's heart-breaking.

I don't know if I want you to write a sequel. This is not to say that I am not curious about what happens. However, there is a certain beauty in the love that will never be again, a final good-bye. Draco's choice basically seals that. I think I would want to leave this story with this feeling. Of course, if I find a sequel (which I doubt, since you wrote this four years ago), I will read it. But, like Rhett to Scarlet, and many others, perhaps the final hit is that this story's greatest pain is also it's greatest beauty.

A Trying Breath by Ephemere    (Reviews - 131)

A horrifying experience has been pushed aside, and people try to get on with their normal lives. But that experience soon turns into distant memories. Distant memories soon turn into haunting nightmares. When nightmares turn into reality, what can a certain group of Hogwarts students do to keep a certain redhead from slipping away? D/G story you've never quite seen before. Contains trips to the library, snogging, unexpected romance, and dreaming Gryffindors.
