There was this book I loved called DarkFever by Karen Marie Moning - evidently there's supposed to be 5 more but she's not an author you see on the shelves often so I'd literally have to check back regularly to find out when or if the next one was out.

Is there a way to be notified when a certain author has a new book on the market?

1. at the end of the book does draco turn over a new leaf?
2. How did Neville get the sword of Gryffindor when the goblin had it?
3.What do you think happened to the dark mark on all the death eater's wrists?
4.What do you think the order/D.A. did to Voldemort's remains?
5. What was up with with the red shield thing in the final battle and how'd it deflect BOTH spells back to Voldemort?
6. Why didn't Dumbledore want the D.A./Order looking for the horcruxes? I know it was Harry's mission, but why couldn't someone just help him and harry could finish off Voldemort.
7. Why isn't harry working at hogwart's 19 years later? he loved that place
8. What do you think is Harry's occupation 19 year's later?

Which deathly Hallow would u choose and y?

I'd choose the cloak as I'd rather be over looked then in the spotlight to be killed.

& no you can't have all 3 as life must come to an end.

This is from Act 4 scene 3

But I do think it is their husbands' faults
If wives do fall; say that they slack their duties
And pour our treasures into foreign laps,
Or else break out in peevish jealousies,
Throwing restraint upon us, or say they strike us,
Or scant our former having in despite,
Why, we have galls, and though we have some grace,
Yet have we some revenge. Let husbands know
Their wives have sense like them; they see and smell
And have their palates both for sweet and sour,
As husbands have. What is it that they do
When they change us for others? Is it sport?
I think it is. And doth affection breed it?
I think it doth. Is't frailty that thus errs?
It is so too. And have not we affections,
Desires for sport, and frailty, as men have?
Then let them use us well; else let them know,
The ills we do, their ills instruct us so



- = unstressed, / = stressed
Much appreciated!

Personally, I think they were ALL fantastic. But a few people I know have a favorite for some reason. I was just wondering if there are more ppl who thin like that.
For me the third and last book stood up. But I still can't say that I like those two better than the other books.

How does a person get his or her manuscript published?

Do you need to be able to write great persuasive essays to be a writer? I mean, fantasy writing really has nothing to do with persuasive essays. I dislike writing essays, and I am wondering if that will create problems for me as a writer. If you are a published author, please offer some words of wisdom, thanks.

Seriously. Everywhere I have been going I had to cover my ears because of people talking about what happens in the book. I am only on chapter 7 lol. I don't have the time to read the whole book in a couple of days unfortunately but kudos to those who could and did. Anyone else still reading it?

I like fantasy more than anything, but I am open to good books. I don't like things that are scary or sad.
What would you recommend for me to read next...?

Man, I tried reading the first book. But it's so confusing. Iam tri-lingual > I studied at an American University. I am very good with the English language. But J.K Rowling uses words and terminalogy that are beyond me. Who else thinks that skipping book 1 and going to book 2 is an easier reading than just reading book 1?

I'm a writer and I've been to my share of Internet sites about literary agents and I have a completed manuscript. I know about the whole process to find one and everything, but some keep rejecting my query letters. Does anyone know a free, good and respectable agento or agency?
