FIC: Slow and Steady Wins the Race

And here be the first part of my new fic, which will eventually become Harry/Neville. The chapters will be fairly short, the story will be mostly uncomplicated but I hope you'll enjoy it. Even you, lilysunshine1. I know it's not Draco but try it, please!

Hello! Sorry it took me so long to reply to this; Christmas and all, takes an annoying amount of time, doesn't it?

Anyway! My guess at this point is that the war has not been concluded Ah, well, it's been concluded but perhaps seems firther away to Harry than Neville. Something I plan on explaining later.

Tells me a lot without telling me anything specific That's the hope. I wanted it to be non-specific but not so much that you need to ask questions about it. If that makes sense. without dictating how I should read it. That's something I would never want to do; not intentionally, anyway.

I think he might bottle up stuff I think that's always how I saw him, even before book 5, because he's so shy he doesn't even get the chance to talk about anything, whether important or not, so it's like he has no choice but to keep it all to himself.

I do think the chapter ends a bit abruptly. Good point. Yes, it does. I think that was sort of because I intended the chapters to be short. I might have written another one by now, but you're the only person who's commented so *shrug*. Maybe I'll try to find some suitable communities and see if I can get feedback there. Most of my f-list is very Harry/Draco orientated so they may have skipped over this. So, I do very much appreciate your comments!

Harry seems so undisturbed by it. Hmm, well, Neville has done other things before, in my head at least, but I haven't decided whether he's trashed the greenhouse in the same way or just done other things instead yet. Need to think more.

Lovely job! *grin* Thank you!

Yeah, I would go stick it up at a Harry/Neville comm. Sorry no one else commented. I am not a big Harry/Neville fan myself, but I don't mind the pairing. I've been co-writing a fic that will become Draco/Neville and Draco/Harry, but so far there isn't anything there.

But I think this has promise, definitely. I just don't feel entirely drawn in yet, but with short chapters, thet wouldn't really be a problem. And I like what you've done with Neville, as I said. ^__^
