A Long Vernal Season has been updated on the Petulant Poetess with Chapter Seventy-Five, “A Wizard Not to be Crossed.”

Chapter Seventy-Five: A Wizard Not to be Crossed
Saturday, 27 March 1999.
Gareth successfully evades Severus’s questions about the reason for his bad morning and his mother’s mood, but Severus nonetheless hears some interesting stories.
Rated T.
Characters: Gareth McGonagall, Severus Snape

Thanks to feedback, both on my LJ & by email, I decided to post today rather than Sunday. I realized that there was little advantage to waiting to the end of the weekend, regardless of the holiday, if I could post today!

To post the next chapter of A Long Vernal Season or not to post. I’m not sure whether people are caught up with the most recently posted chapters yet . . . There’s also the Easter holiday coming up, and whether that means people will have more or less time to read, I’m not sure!

Observed an odd phenomenon: sometimes a chapter that is fairly pivotal gets fewer reviews (and often fewer hits) than other chapters. I’ve noticed this on various occasions, most recently with “Descent into Hades,” a few chapters back. It is rather puzzling . . .

I’ll likely post “A Wizard Not to be Crossed” no later than Sunday, but I don’t know whether I should post sooner. I’m quite dithery today! LOL!
