After some thought, I’ve decided to leave this profile free of any information about me in the hope that my writing will be judged solely on its own merits without any preconceived ideas that may creep into the mind of the reader through the knowledge of my gender, age, ethnicity, schooling, etc.

While I have dabbled in some other writing, this is my first foray into fanfic. After reading so many wonderful stories, I thought that it was time to have a go for myself. My hope is that some others may also enjoy the stories that I envision.

So then, on to the stories:

The Cupboard Series:

Book 1: The Cupboard Under the Stairs

A mysterious green inked letter banished Harry from his cupboard. But does taking the boy out of the cupboard also mean that you've taken the cupboard out of the boy? A first year fic.

Book 2: Hermione's Book Nook

Even bars on the window, locks on the door and a demented house-elf can't keep Harry away from his friends. The Ministry hearing, though, might be a different story. And then there's that letter from his dad ... A second year fic.

Book 3: Potter Haven

After the disastrous events at King's Cross Station at the end of Harry and Hermione's second year, Harry's been expelled from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and is now on the run. Hunted by the Ministry of Magic and Albus Dumbledore alike, Harry must somehow learn to survive alone while at the same time continuing his magical education. The third year of Harry and Hermione's magical education.

Book 4: The Fourth School

The TriWizard Tournament has been revived and the three largest and most prestigious schools in Europe are due to compete - Hogwarts, Beauxbatons and Durmstrang. And in a mark of respect, the newest and smallest school in not only Britain but also all of Europe, has been invited to watch. If only things were that simple. The fourth year of Harry and Hermione's magical education.

Book 5: United We Stand …

Lord Voldemort has risen. The Minister of Magic is dead. War has been declared. Now is the time for those of the Light to unite, for to do so will give them a chance to stand, to face the Darkness and to survive. For we all know what happens to those who are divided …

Book 6: Castle Voldemort

Hogwarts has fallen. In its place stands Castle Voldemort. With the Hogwarts students held hostage, the Ministry has surrendered. All of magical Britain is now under the rule of Lord Voldemort. All, that is, but for those few at Diricawl Academy of Magical Studies. But what can so few really do against such odds?

Book 7: Graduation Day

Seven years ago, Harry Potter was taken from the cupboard under the stairs and thrust into the wizarding world. His first magic school, Hogwarts, didn't work out, so, together with some new friends, Harry founded his own - Diricawl Academy of Magical Studies. They've learnt a lot and even saved the wizarding world from an evil Dark Lord. Now, it's finally time to graduate.

Other Harry Potter Stories:

A Sorting Like No Other

The Sorting Hat (or Brian to his friends) has had enough of being told by Albus-Too-May-Names Dumbledore exactly how certain new students should be sorted. He's seen the four great Houses of Hogwarts decline from what The Founders had once envisioned them to be. For once, he's going to take matters into his own, um, hands? The incoming class of 1991 isn't going to know what hit them. Get ready for a Sorting like no other. One shot. Not a part of my Cupboard Series.

Muggle-Raised Champion

The day before Harry Potter was due to go to Hogwarts for the very first time, his aunt and uncle informed him that he wouldn't be going. Instead, he was sent to Stonewall High. Now, three years later, the Goblet of Fire has named him as a TriWizard Champion. What that means is anyone's guess, but to Harry, one thing is clear: he can finally get away from Privet Drive. Not a part of the Cupboard Under the Stairs Series.

Crossover Stories:

Heroes Assemble!

After five years travelling the world, Harry Potter has landed in New York. He figures that there's no better place than the city that never sleeps to settle in and forge a new life. If only the heroes, villains, aliens and spies had received the message. Begins just before the Avengers movie and continues through the MCU. Expect a long story with some extra faces along the way.

Languages Other Than English:

Fanfiction user Akerthy is currently translating Heroes Assemble! into French (with my full permission and support). You can see and read my story in French by going to Akerthy's profile page. Unfortunately, this lasted a total of 3 chapters. *sigh*

Muggle-Raised Champion is also being translated into German by Thorrus (again with my full permission and support). If you read German, go to his profile page and have a read.

5/1/17 - It's new story time. 'Heroes Assemble' is my first attempt at a crossover (between Harry Potter and the Avengers). Seeing as I have the first 20 chapters written, I thought that it was time to start posting it for others to (hopefully) enjoy.

4/5/17 - Book 6 of the Cupboard Series is now out - 'Castle Voldemort'. For those wondering about a sequel to 'Muggle-Raised Champion', the fact is that, while I have not ruled out doing one, I will only ever do 2 stories at most at one time, and at the moment, that is the Cupboard Series and 'Heroes Assemble!'.

25/5/17 - Finding that life is getting hectic and my writing time is diminishing. So, for now, I'm moving to posting every 2nd week for 'Castle Voldemort'. 'Heroes Assemble' shall still stay as a weekly post, at least for the foreseeable future.

18/7/17 - Between increased work hours and the fact that I've become the sole organiser for a football (soccer) competition, writing time is extremely limited and I often find that down time does not equal motivated writing time. I'll post what I can, when I can, at least until October. 'Heroes' seems to have a stranglehold on my writing juices at the moment, so expect a lot more of it. No story will ever be abandoned.

5/10/17 - While my recent holiday may have been absolutely amazing, you may think that it was a bit too much. It's taken me a tad longer to get back into the swing of writing. So, while I've been working on both chapter 5 of 'Castle' and chapter 38 of 'Heroes', neither are completely written, let alone edited or polished ready for posting. As such, I find that I must beg for one more week before returning to my regularly scheduled posting. Have no fear, for NaNoWriMo is just around the corner and I always write at least 100k words in the month of November, and I aim for at least 80k of them to be strictly on 'Castle Voldemort' (which should finish that story and then there'll only be one to go to finish the series)

21/12/17 - It's taken 3 1/2 years, 7 books, 85 chapters and over 625k words, but finally the Cupboard Series is finished. There were times I wondered if I'd ever get to this point. Hopefully, everyone enjoyed it as much I enjoyed writing it. I'll take a bit of a break now, just focussing on 'Heroes Assemble!' before beginning a new story. Let me know in the poll what you'd like to see.

26/09/18 - Let it be known, that no story of mine will ever be abandoned.

My Other Works - I've had various readers commenting that they'd be interested in seeing other things that I've written, so I decided to put together something for those curious few: www.smashwords.com/profile/view/marpet97 and also www.lulu.com/spotlight/StargonBooks

Another Place to Connect - While getting reviews and the occasional PM is always wonderful, I thought that it could be good to give my readers another way to connect with me as a writer as well as my writings. Therefore, I've created a Facebook page that you might like to check out: https://www.facebook.com/StargonBooks/
