Deal with a Devil

Deal with a Devil was recommended to me and before I began reading it I discovered that it has more chapters to go before it's completed. Do you have an estimate as to when its completion might occur? Thanks. (-:

No idea. I'm only just starting Harry's second year, and this will probably end somewhere around Dec 1995. Third and fifth years will be fairly short, but second and fourth will take longer. It'll probably take me at least a year and a half until it's finished, longer if I start writing a third story at the same time.

If you don't want to read it until it's finished, you might just want to bookmark it or favorite it and start when you see the complete sign at the end of the stats.

Thanks. Have you ever thought of dividing it up into separate pieces, like possibly year 1, year 2...etc.?
-----
I might start a new book once year 2 is done. It depends on how long it is when I'm through with that year.

Thanks. (-:

I am currently reading Midnight Riot and I am enjoying it. But as for the review you posted, read this review instead. Natalliya's just a really good reviewer.

I just finished Rivers of London/Midnight Riot and enjoyed it a lot. I'll be soon reading the next book in the series, Moon Over Soho.

Cool Jared Padalecki

I've been watching reruns of "Supernatural" and have decided that I would like this guy cast as Harry. Darken his hair, give him a couple facial scars and put 3" or 4" lifts in his shoes...?



Jared Padalecki

Jared Tristan Padalecki is an American actor. He grew up in Texas and rose to fame in the early 2000s after appearing on the television series Gilmore Girls as well as such films as New York Minute and House of Wax. Wikipedia
Born: July 19, 1982 (age 33), San Antonio, TX
Height: 6′ 4″

Yep, and he is almost the right height - within a couple inches. Instead of booster shoes, just give him a hat.
