Yes! My first ever fanfic! Haha I really hope this thing doesn't end up reeeeeeeeeally bad. Oh well, I tried, right?
Okay, so… I've gotta put a disclaimer thinger here I suppose. Um… standards apply. I own nothing but the idea. It's my own (I think… er… I hope) Everything else belongs to J.K. Rowling.
Alrighty, here we go.
Her Story
I love to write. I always have, and I expect I always will. Be it a fairy tale or an encounter, I've written since I've known how to hold a quill. My passion, though, is writing the story of a persontheir life, their struggles, their triumphs, and their heartaches. Something about the reality of it all just grasps at me, begging me to write it all out.
My parents expected me to be an Auror, and that's what I became. Deep down inside though, I still had that passion for writing. It's a strange feeling to describe. It's almost like the first time I rode a broomstick. I felt so free. When I write, I get lost in a whole other world, my own world, where I make the rules, and I dictate what happens. It's an escape, a somewhat guilty pleasure I guess you could say. Any and every chance I get, I write. I've written just about anything you could think of. If you gave me a genre, chances are, I have stacks of parchment with my own scribbles on them that fit categorically in each variety.
There is one story, though, that I have not written: my story. I've written about my parents, my brothers (all six of them, yes), my friends, and their lives. But mine is still tucked away back in the dark caverns of my head. My story is unique, because it is about me. I know every single detail that has happened in my life. When I write about other people, I only write about what they tell me. They can choose to leave out or alter things that they see dreadful or thwarting. But when I write about myself, I have no limitations.
Why, then, have I not done so yet? I cannot tell you, simply because… I do not know the answer myself. Something kept me from telling my own story, something told me to keep quiet. But I think it's time I let you know the really Ginny Weasley. It's time you understood who really was the girl behind the long red hair and hand-me-down school robes. It's time I introduced you to me.
