Hello Readers. As you will see this story, Beauty in Perfection: Stand by Me, is finally going through a major rewrite. So much so that I have deleted everything from the old version. Don’t worry new sections will be uploaded soon.

I would like to thank all my previous Readers & Reviewers. As always I would love to hear from you. When you read, you will discover that some story elements have been deleted. This is practical because over time my writing voice has changed. However, I’m trying to maintain as much of the old story as possible.

Instead of uploading chapter by chapter I will be setting the story into segments or parts. This first part is titled ‘All Plots Must Have a Beginning.’ It includes the Prologue through the conclusion of chapter three: Two Cats & a Courtyard. (just over 9,800 words after edits)

Now a word about plots… This is Fanfiction. Beauty in Perfection is AU because anything Slash is considered AU in my mind. Following that line of reasoning the story will have other elements that are not in Harry Potter canon. “Broaden your minds…” lol It’s all meant for enjoyment. Comments are always welcome; however, please remember that I’m not the author that made Dudley into a boxing champion. :vbg: If your curiosity is piqued then you may follow the story with interest. You will also discover within the plot line that Harry and Dumbledore don’t always get along perfectly. That’s another reason this story isn’t canon—remember, Beauty was completed before book six HP & the Half Blood Prince was released.

Hogwarts castle, still named Moenia is alive and well. Another plot thread…Bloodline.

Enjoy!

P.S. Please Forgive Me! When I went into my account to start making the changes I discovered that there have already been more than 350 hits to Beauty since May 1st. WoW! Please understand that deleting the old chapters is quite necessary.
