Behind the Scenes Commentary
- I was really, really amazed at the response I got for “The Moment.” What can I say; I’m a sucker for a good review, lol. So when one of my reviewers mentioned that maybe I ought to try Ron’s P.O.V., I had to give it a go!
- It’s a bit amusing for me that my sequel ended up longer than the original. We’ll see if that’s good or bad.
- I do feel like I was a little more…Mmm…I’ll say informal with this one. Then again, Ron’s P.O.V. usually is, it’s what I love about him.
- I had a little trouble deciding which memories for Ron to remember, because I thought maybe the readers from “The Moment” would get bored with everything being repeated. So I compromised by leaving some of them out, and instead giving Ron a little more different things to dwell on, such as what Harry told him, and of course, lol, Hermione’s methods over house-elves.
Deleted Scenes
- Again, this one was pretty straight forward. Mostly because I had a format already ready to go.
Making it Work
- While I didn’t want it to be absolutely redundant from “The Moment,” why fix something that isn’t broke? My kind reviewers seemed pretty responsive with the format that “The Moment” had, so I decided to follow it almost exactly.
- Obviously, from a different P.O.V. doesn’t change the actions, so while those are all the same, I did try describing everything a little different
- Almost every paragraph break matches a break from TM
- I keep lots of the same themes in each paragraph, just with Ron’s voice and thoughts.
Overall
- As I said in my author’s note- I wanted this to match TM, but not be an exact duplicate. While I do see similarities, I think this one can stand on its own as well, which I think is the mark of a good sequel…’course, we’ll let the readers decide that, lol!
- I must confess though, that I do have a soft spot for this one…if only because Ron is my favorite character!
- I like this one just as much as TM…hopefully, a good sign! :)

Sneak Peak at "The Other Moment"
Just finished writing "The Other Moment," the sequel/companion piece to "The Moment."
I would post it now, but it is 3am and I am really really tired! I expect I'll post it around midday tomorrow; it'll definately be up before the night is over.
I do hope it goes over as well as its twin. :)
For anyone lucky though, lol, here's a sneak peak:
It is a funny thing, that even when you crave for something so much it hurts, you know that the wait for it is what makes it worth it in the end. Even though the wait is long and filled with countless doubts and insecurities, you know that without them, it wouldn’t mean so much to you. And in the end, you come to realize that each and every second you waited is what makes the moment when it happens so special.
After this...I've got a few more R/Hr Deathly Hallows moments to go. They're beginning to add up, but I just gotta throw my own out there as well!

The Moment
***WARNING***: THIS FIC CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS! I would not proceed if you haven't read it yet.
Title: The Moment
Summary: "Is this the moment?" For Ron and Hermione it was...
Fandom: Harry Potter
Date Posted on FanFiction: Monday, July 23rd 2007
Genre: Romance/General
Point of View: Third Person, slight emphasis on Hermione
Pairing(s): Ron and Hermione all the way, baby!
Rating: G (or K on the FanFiction scale)
Length: One-Shot (1,546 words)

Behind the Scenes Commentary
- My first Harry Potter fic in YEARS. Literally. I think the last one was in 2003!
- Deathly Hallows has broken through my writers block. I expect another few one-shots with similar themes (i.e. RON/HERMIONE)
- I knew I had a very small time frame from the book to work with, which is why I focus more on Hermione's thoughts then the action around them.
- It may be a stretch for some people to believe that Hermione thought all that in such a short time, but if you've ever been it a fast paced situation before, you do find that many thoughts to make it through your head.
- I think I re-read the scene on page 625 about 50 times for this, lol.
- By the way, as you can see, I didn't stretch this moment to a make out session, but I refuse to believe that it was a simple peck. The details hint at more, so I tried to bring that out. :P
- Also, I can not wait to take off all the spoiler warnings! They're clogging my story! lol. I kid, I kid, I don't mind 'em...but still...in another few weeks they are totally coming OFF.
Deleted Scenes
- None! Wrote this one straight through from start to finish. Been awhile since I've done that.
Making it Work
- It just...did it on its own, lol. It actually came out longer than I had thought it would AND it was written in a tone I hadn't planned on. But I like the way it came out.
Overall
- I am very very happy with how this came out. I know that DH is bound to insipre lots of fics similar to this, but I figure its better to be on the front of the band wagon then being one of the ones that others try to knock off when its full. And this one is dedicated to all the R/Hr fans like me who have been waiting YEARS for this to finally happen! :)
