I shit-canned my current version of chapter one of Snape Manor ten minutes ago. It was driving me crazy, so I read it aloud to wilderness_guru. He agreed with my assessment.

Speaking of discouragment. I came home really energized and ready to write, too.

Dammit.

I hate it when that happens. I've been throwing away sketch after crappy sketch the last few days. Bah!

I know work on a strange pairing, you like those and it could be fun. I'd like to see you do some more Ron/Neville actually. I mean think about it, he's only a gnat's eyelash removed from Harry and it's all Voldie's fault...

Hope ya get the angle on Snape Manor that you're looking for.

It's just JKR wrote my premise. It was almost identical to what I had, her descriptions of the Black manse. *sigh* It also messed up a lot of Harry's part as well, and that's what's wrong with chapter one. If it were just my writing, that would be one thing. But it's not the writing, the writing's lovely.

I thought I had a solution, but no.

I've never thrown out a story before. Never.
