I just found all these spiffy new things to do with the journal that I haven't updated in ages. Oops. Oh well, all's well that ends well. Not that this is ending, of course.
I've been going through a lot of HP links and stories recently, and have happened across one of the best update lists on the web,
daily_snitch. It's all wonderful... *runs off to join*
Of course, the amazing and awe-inspiring
maeglinyedi does a lot of work on that, as well as writing her novel+ length HP/SB/RL story, "Call of the Wild", which is actually the third in that series. Her works are so above describtion... and hot as hell.
nqdonne has been doing a lot of reccing recently, as well as re-reading the actual Harry Potter stories and giving us all the clues that we have missed before. I wonder how many more things will actually come to pass in the 6th and 7th books...
JKRowling has annonced that the title of book six is to be "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", or HBP for short. And I think I know who it is...
She has already said that it wasn't Voldemort or Harry (although for the title of the book to mean "Harry Potter and Himself" would be pretty odd...) and that HBP was actually a rejected title for COS...
The other thing that was rejected in COS was Dean's Past. She wrote entire chapters of his past, but had to cut it for Nieville (sp?) instead.
So, it has to be either Neville or Dean, simply because, yeah, they're male.
But the Trevor theory is cute too.
