The first person can indeed be very powerful when used in the right place - and this was it.

I agree, though it took me a couple of weeks (and a complete rewrite from the original third person version) before I was able to make it work.

What an absolute delight! It all fitted with what we know of Arthur, yet gave it another dimension. Very sweet story.

Thanks for the review. The idea for this story came to me easily, but writing it proved difficult until I realised that it needed to be written first-person, not third. It was my first ever first-person story.

It really is a rare talent to be seen but not noticed. Arthur must work hard at it.
He'd have beaten the twins--LOL line! Arthur is very perceptive. Good job of characterizing him. He's so right about parenting, but he has parented a LOT of kids.
Yeah, the thought of your kids having sex is pretty creepy. Love how Arthur got around the issue by commenting that as long as the Grangers are there... That Ginny really is a sneaky witch.
Thanks for the review.
This was my first ever attempt at a first person pov story, and I chose Arthur. He’s a member of the Order of the Phoenix, he’s trusted by Dumbledore, and he’s married to Molly! He can’t be an idiot.
Ginny is, indeed, sneaky, but not as sneaky as she thinks she is.
