The Ultimate Fate of Harry Potter and Severus Snape

Before you click on the cut below, I don't wish to sound all arrogant-like, but I did totally call one of the biggest shockers of Book 6 two days before the novel came out. So even though this is pure speculation on my part, and not based on any inside knowledge or even rumor about the contents of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, you might want to steer clear if you're hoping to be surprised.

I wanted to write this up in a more sophisticated, essay-like form, with references and whatnot to back up my ideas, but I don't have time for that right now. So I am afraid you will have to put up with a condensed version of a very informal chat I had with cesario instead, for which I do apologize.

( My predictions for HP Book 7, including the real reason Snape is so hard on Harry, the meaning of the gleam of triumph in Dumbledore's eye, and what we're seeing on the cover of the American version, among other things that could very possibly turn out to be SPOILERS )

Now I am going to go and re-read books 1-6 and cry, thanks.

Wednesday Wordcount

I've decided to start posting my wordcount for the day, as a reminder to myself and (I hope) an encouragement to others. And today I'm starting off with a bang, which makes me very happy:

1,279 words.

And that completes the second chapter of Touching Indigo, so tomorrow I'll be starting on the third.
