Welcome to another episode of SpellCast readings!

This week's fic, read by both Jason Fraser and Gwendolyn Grace, is PS... written by thistlerose. The fic is rated PG and located in the Dark Arts house.

The summary goes: The summer after his fifth year at Hogwarts, Harry receives a letter that his godfather wrote for him, but never sent, two months before he was born.

This week, we also feature the two winners of the January 2007 challenge on FictionAlley. These are Ernie Prang and the Howdy Hall Tale written by SwissMiss and Rabid Weasels, Stoned Ferrets and Bitch Beavers and Bad Hair: How To and Hints written by icefire lioness.


We'll be reviewing the main fic in Episode Eighteen, and you can participate by leaving either an email or voicemail review. You can send text reviews to spellcast@fictionalley.org or leave a voicemail at our Skype username, 'fictionalley'. We hope you enjoy the readings and look forward to your reviews!
