I have wondered as i read the series in close detail that it seems like almost all of the secondary plots are done by women.

to start with it is Lilly's not James Death that is the object of the series. if I'm not misteken if james died to protect harry wasnt both his perents deaths suppose to have offered the protection not only Lilly's?

In harry's generation it seems like the intelligent ones were always girls. only the girls are mostly noted for being best at something or accomplished at something.
Ginny was an accomplished bat bogey hexer, no other boy is mentioned as to be accomplished at anything.
Hermione was always best at everything. Of the three niether harry nor ron ever did anything in thier lessons that they practised. in the DA it seems like the girls were more active.

in the final battle of the DA of the three 16yr olds who fought only coleen died. the hole serries. the most powerful supposedly death eater was a woman bellatrix.

I can't think of the name for the life of me. I remember reading it in 2nd or 3rd grade at school. It was hardcover and pretty thick. All I remember is that it took classic fairy tales and twisted them around to create hillarious versions.

To describe what he's supposed to look like, he has tan skin, green eyes, and dark curly hair, broad build, tall, and muscles but not realllly buff.

I need to put this phrase in a very sophisticated, not so typical, imaginative, yet elaborate way. Change up the words and add some more that will make the sentences seem more complete, and seem very intelligent, very expressive. Maybe a lot more descriptive words in there. Something that will make one's jaw drop, get scared, want to KNOW what the buttons are. Whoever does the best job gets best answer with 5 stars. Here it is:

It takes one second to set me off to the verge of punching your face in. I suggest you find out what my "buttons" are. I have many and if you don't want me to be on the edge of tearing your head off, you should probably find out what they are before you hit one of them.

have a good superhero in my story for the first book. You get to know him, and you start liking him and connecting.

The second book: he slowly transforms from a good guy to a bad guy.

Third:he's kept at a prison like place for almost 2 decades. show's his once love interest (broke up cuz of his bad side) is married and has his son. In the end, there's a huge war between good and evil. Son= good
father= evil

He is so strong, that he ends up destroying the whole city or more (haven't decided). His love dies, his son dies, and a lot more people but he survives. and i dont' know how else to end it but what do u think??

I'm writing a story about youngsters fighting against overwhelming odds to end discrimanation against homosexuality, and eventually the annihilation of their world. Religion is used as a weapon against homosexuals as Arun City launches a war against the 'tainted souls', creating massive bloodbaths. Love is born between the heroes as their destines are confronted. The greatest entities of evil are ressurected, and revelations surprise our teenage heroes. What should I call this particular novel?

Hi I have written a short story entitled The Candle Bride for an English assignment. Part of the project involves getting feedback from it's intended audience.

So if anyone would like to spare a few minutes to have a look at my story and give me your opinion as a reader of horror and suspense literature I would be very grateful.

I'm not asking for technical criticism so much as your opinion as a fan of the genre. Thanks in advance for your help guys.

Okay, here I am sitting in my English class when my English teacher says ‘Okay guys, your exams are now over so I will set you some homework. You have to write me a story.

Now this is going to be hard work. Why oh why couldn’t it be something about my times tables or 30 maths questions or a few laps around the oval or making a pot in ceramics but NO! We’ve got the toughest one of the lot, writing a story.

So here I am wondering about what to write about… Oh! What about a horror story. ‘One day on a dark and stormy night.’ Na! Everyone is going to write about that one! How about a spy story ‘he saw the bullet slow down, everyone says time slows down when your about to die but he knew that already.’ But I don’t know enough about that sort of thing.

Rowling wrote The Tales of Beedle the Bard, but only published 7 copies: 6 for friends, 1 to be sold for charity.

Does anyone else feel as though this is a backhanded move toward her fans? I do not grudge her selling a handwritten (as I understand the 7 to be) copy for charity; however, as her fans have made her who she is today, shouldn't she have published a typed, less "fancy" copy for the public to read?

I have a question for anyone who is familiar with Hamlet, in scene 3 Act 1 where Polonius and Claudius are hiding and eavesdropping on Hamlet and Ophelia ( the famous "to be or not to be"...and "get thee to a nunnery" Act).....do any of you think that Hamlet knew at any time that they were there hiding and that some of what he said was an act....or do you think he meant the whole thing? I keep reading it over and over again trying to evaluate it.

I've thought that since about Chamber Of Secrets and in The Deathly Hallows I thought his relasionship with Grindlewald just confirmed it. I was glad Jo Rowling said so though, I did wonder a bit if it was just my interpretation.

Soz about my spelling!
