Hey all.

First of all, let me sincerely apologize for getting your hopes up of a new chapter and then quashing them horribly with a mere authors note. Second of all, let me assure you that this story is NOT ABANDONED nor under any sort of hiatus. I am working on the final chapter and will continue to do so, no matter what it takes.

That said, I am well aware of ffnets rules about authors note in stories and I do plan on deleting this one afterwards, however this seemed to be the quickest way to get to all of you!

Having received many lovely reviews for this fic (and I thank you all, I am completely overwhelmed when I look at it!) there have also been a vast mixture of opinions about Harry being punished or to be more exact, how. So, as such, I've created a poll for this exact question.

At first, I wasn't planning on letting you know like this and just put a notice in my profile page but then I looked at the stats page and realized that this may just be the best way and I don't want anybody mad at me for not being able to share their opinions! :p

So I hope you guys will forgive me for this and go and vote in the poll in my profile page.

I love to hear your opinions also, so if you want to send me a PM, feel free, just don't worry if it takes me awhile to reply! I have a hectic schedule what with rehab and all but I'll reply.

So, that said, please go and vote and I will update soon… :)

Love, Amber
