Because it has been a month since my last chapter for "As it Should Be" and I have gotten a bit bored waiting (not that I blame Mel--she's had a hectic summer and probably not any time to write) I have started a new story which I am co-authoring with my buddies Drew and Vandy. Vandy's account name is Greybane, by ze way. I hear tell he's working on a shwanky story...
But anyway. Our story is a pretty standard we-all-go-to-Hogwarts fic, but it doesn't get all annoying by tossing us among the conventional HP characters. Our story takes place after Harry and his buds have left Hogwarts and defeated Moldy Voldy, but before his obnoxious kids plague the school (shudder). Thus, we are not mysteriously intertwined with schemes to kill off Voldy and we do not have ridiculous powers and we are not saving the world. We do, however, have very interesting NEW ideas to explore! Each chapter is comprised of three journal entries from a specific House. The narrating characters are:
David Van de Vaalk, Melissa Brodie, Andrew Welby (Gryffindors)
Juliana Prince, Amanda Swane, Michael Lestrange (Slytherins)
Ali Kavanaugh, Sarah Shaddock, John Carrow (Hufflepuffs)
Davey Kilgour, Peter Knickerbacker, and Gwynneth Dwyre (Ravenclaws).
Vandy will be writing for the parts of David/Vandy, Michael, John, and Peter. Drew will be writing for Drew, Amanda, Ali, and Davey. I (Julie) will be writing for Melissa, Juliana, Sarah, and Gwynneth.
All characters are Hogwarts versions of our friends. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it! It promises to be very hilarious and yummy.
PS: I was really excited and I couldn't wait for Vandy to finish writing his journal entry, even if it supposed to be the first one in the chapter…so I uploaded the story with only Drew's and my entries. As soon as Vandy-Manly gets cracking on his part, I will add it into the chapter.
