It was exactly who I thought it was going to be

Yes. I thought it was probably going to be Sirius.

I think I'm not going to write Snape Manor now. I'm stunned. The description of Sirius' house is so much like what I had in mind for Snape Manor. She had infestations, I had more magical objects. She had screaming portraits of old relatives, I had relatives appearing in reflections - but it's so close to Snape Manor, and the feel of it, that I was totally discouraged as I read those scenes.

On the other hand, the description of the Ministry is exactly what I needed for 'Beg Me For It.' Glad I haven't written 'SNAFU' yet.

Wow that was a good guess. ^^ I thought it was gonna be Hagrid or Ron... I was nowhere near. Oi...

Wow your thoughts on Snape manor is pretty close alright, but why wouldn't you want to continue to write? Oh wait... never mind. Bah. I'm being slow here.

Well, two weeks ago I was convinced it was probably going to be Sirius. I thought, if I were her, who would I kill? But this past week I've waffled.

The reason I wanted to do Snape Manor is that it was such an unusual idea, not directly covered in Canon. Now I feel like it's been done. There's a lot more to the Snape Manor story than the Manor itself, but my idea - I thought - was quite original. Takes a lot of the fun out of it for me.
