Happy Anniversary, Mom and Dad!
Sorry I made you wait so long for the continuation,
bit of stage fright on my part. Thanks for sticking
with me. Part 7 will be up later today. I'm just
waiting on my proofreader to finish it.

Update:
Here you go, kids! The Godric's Hollow sequence.

It's coming. Soon...I promise. In like thirty
minutes.

There's going to be a bit of a lull in screenplay
updates. This week has turned into the week from
hell. I have several meetings and now unfortunately
a funeral to go to. To make it up to you, here are
some more lovely screencaps of Ballet Shoes.
Pauline gets another shot, with Petrova's help.
Ril
| 5 May 2008 |
The girls nab the role!
Goodbye Chickie, I will always remember you with a
smile on your face and laughter... and you trying
to force feed me because I'm too thin. ;)
Ti amo, nonna.
Ril

The Fossil girls' fortune isn't good for everyone.
Expect more DH probably by Friday.
Ril
| 8 May 2008 |
I couldn't get to a computer until just now. I do
have more DH for you. A teaser for what's coming
next. Check it out.
Ril
| 10 May 2008 |
Just wanted to wish all the mommy's a very
wonderful and Happy Mother's Day!
Rilian
| 11 May 2008 |
I know, I know. I suck and I'm sorry. But now the
funerals and craziness are over, you'll get more
DH. I swear it!
Rilian
| 13 May 2008 |
**********
Update: AHHHHHHH!!! Due to a slight (hopefully
slight) file saving problem with evil scriptwriting
software there will be a minor delay in updating.
Ok, so I'm taking deep breaths and praying, I'll
even try a special file backup dance and see if
that works. I don't think we lost the whole file,
just maybe a few pages... God, I might vomit.

Part 8 of the screenplay is with its editor right
now. I'll be back later with it.
Ril

It's coming....
Ril
| 16 May 2008 |
Granny had to go back to the hospital. She's now in
rehab to get her strength back. Things have been a
bit hectic, I tried to work through it but it took
more out of me than I expected.
Here's Part 8 of Deathly Hallows. It's shorter than
usual but I wanted to get you what I could.
Ril
| 19 May 2008 |
Welcome to all our new GA Members! We're glad to
have you in the ranks!
I forgot to mention that I went to see Prince
Caspian and...I liked it! There were changes, but I
thought they were pretty good. I could understand
them and why they were made, unlike the ones made
in Potter films that make me cry.
Ril
| 21 May 2008 |
Here's some new Ballet Shoes screencaps for you.
Let's see: Posey makes fun of the other girl;
Pauline and Petrova learn to fly and Petrova frets
over her lack of acting skills.
Ril
| 22 May 2008 |
Look for more of the Deathly Hallows screenplay
this weekend.
Ril

We'd like to welcome our new affiliate Castle
Whitefang. They're on our affiliates page, go check

Update: Here's the second half of Part 8.

Happy Memorial Day to all our American readers!
Remember our guys and girls -past, present and
future- who give us all they have.
I'll be back with more DH later.
Ril

Ciao! I bring you more screencaps. And the promise
of a very extra special announcement very, very
soon. Three days to be exact...
Ballet Shoes - in medias res - Petrova finally
makes a stand against Pauline's desires for more
acting.
Ril
| 29 May 2008 |
Two days til the big announcement. It's fun, I
promise.
Today in Ballet Shoes - the girls get a bit of
fresh air in the warmer climate to help Garnie's
health. They play Indians -or more accurately
Native Americans- and try to scalp Posy.
Ril
| 30 May 2008 |
Okay, so while they were in the country Pauline got
called for an audition for a film. Garnie tried to
ask Mr. Simpson out and got turned down cause he's
dumb. Despite the broken heart, they all leave
their little escape to bring Pauline back to London.
Here's her screen test. Raw talent, but there's
definitely something special there.

I fixed the script file so Part 8 won't be split in
two anymore. Here's Deathly Hallows Part 8 in full.
Ril
| 4 June 2008 |
More Deathly Hallows screenplay to come for D-day!
Prepare for Part 9.
Ril
| 5 June 2008 |
Part 9 will be a bit delayed. Got home much later
than anticipated, sorry. It'll be up tomorrow.
To make up for it, we have a lovely new affiliate
from Lithuania. Go check out Magic World. And they
have a very cool link button on our Affiliates page.
Ril
| 6 June 2008 |
Okay, I realize you're all ready to kill me. And I
am sorry for the delay.
I realized a problem with the screenplay last
minute and I had to rewrite some of it and now I'm
stuck trying to rework everything around the new
stuff. It should be fixed soon though.
Ril

My brother had rotator cuff surgery. So now he gets
to deal with a whole lot of pain and discomfort. I
can only wish him good luck and thank God he's not
living with me. ;)
My parents are closing on a new house. They'll be
signing their lives away all day today so good luck
to them.
And good luck to Uncle Jimmy. Feel better, bopa.

America Online (AOL) has just caught up to what the
fans have known for a while now and is reporting
today that Emma is 'allegedly' the new face of

I'm a big dumb idiot! I forgot to post on the 17th
that Granny had her 94th birthday! So Happy
Birthday, Granny!
In celebration, here are more screen shots of
Pauline's first movie role.
Ril
| 22 June 2008 |
Emma's put up a new EMS message on her site. She's
finished with her A-Levels and gets to anxiously
wait for the results. Lucky her.
Good luck to her and all the Brits awaiting their
results.
Site improvements around these parts.
Ril
| 24 June 2008 |
More site tweaks over the next few days. See if you
can spot them. We're gearing up for a major change
but I can't promise a date as of yet.
Keep Granny in your prayers, if you say any. Thanks.
Ril
| 25 June 2008 |
Granny passed away yesterday morning.
Thank you to everyone who wished her well.
Ti amo, Gran.

Oliver's Wands has just significantly reduced their
prices. Magic Wands now start at $25.00 and come
with a numbered parchment certificate of
authenticity bearing their wax seal that identifies
the wood type, length and magical properties. It
is then packaged in a silken wand pouch for
shipment.
Oliver will also be adding several new wands over
the next couple of weeks with new woods like apple,
lilac and maple.

You'll be getting a bit of a treat over the next

Hang tight.

I'm leaving on a jet plane. I don't know when I'll
be back again... Except I do.
I'm on my way to Europe! WooHoo! I'll be in London;
Paris; Lucerne, Switzerland; Venice, Florence,
Rome, the Bay of Naples, Capri, Pompeii, Bari,
Italy; Olympia, Delphi and Athens, Greece!
I'm so, so excited to be going on this tour! I
can't wait to be out there, but tonight I'll be
wasting away on a long, uncomfortable flight.
You'll be having fun though too! Cas is back and
ready to play! You'll be getting updates from my
ever elusive co-webmaster for most of the month.
There's a sweet treat for you that Cas gets to
reveal. Dirty rotten....oh, well I guess I can
share you all with my own twin.
Talk to you soon.

Today is the third anniversary of the terrorist
attacks on the London underground. Please say a
prayer for that those affected by these sad have
found peace in their lives.
Caspian
| 7 July 2008 |
I'm am sorry for the lack of updates the past few
days. Between computer turmoil and family chaos, I
have been a bad webmaster. Please accept this as a
peace offering. There is more to come in the next
few days.
Caspian
P.S. Please say a prayer for Lee, the toughest 95
year old the world has ever seen!

Heathy and Rils join me in saying Happy Bastille
Day to all our fellow Potter friends in France!
They tooks the time out of their busy European
adventure to call and send their love to y'all. And
we can't forget to say Happy pre Birthday to LaLa,
one of our first and most fervent fans - 21
forever! I'll be back soon with the first
installment of Book 7!
Cas

I am so excited on what I am working on for you!
It should be ready to post soon. I am like a madman
writing secretly in my journal on my lunch hour.
The scientist/writer - sounds like a madman to me!

It is 9:30 PM and I just stumbled in from work.
Someone needs to put an end to these 12 hour days I
have been working! I have been a very terrible
friend to you, Readers - I am not nearly as good as
our fine Rilian. However, I am working on the
first chunk of Book 7 Summentaries and will be
posting installments over the next few days. In the
mean time, feel free to refresh your memories as to
where we left off. I am also sure you are happy
that Rils and Heathy will be home this weekend! I
miss them too...
