The Curious Tale of Tamisin Emily Beeson
Hey, everyone. Yes, I'm still alive. No, I haven't given up on my stories (except for Arthur...but that's old news by now). It's those darned plot bunnies...they just appear in my head and go, "Elphie, write about us!" And then I get more, and more, and...it's frustrating.
To those who are regulars of mine: welcome back. :) To those who are new: welcome. :) To those of you who happened to find this in the sea of Harry Potter stories that are out there...thanks for giving my story the time of day. :)
So anyway, yeah, I rediscovered my passionate Harry Potter fangirl identity this past summer. And I've been through numerous drafts of how I would make this work. I'm still not sure it will, to be perfectly honest. But, hey, I can't say anything unless I try, so why not?
Yeah, yeah...OCs in Harry Potter's past? That are RELATED TO HIM? (gasp) It's unthinkable! Well, like I said, I won't know if it's good unless I have other people read it. So, here we go.
This takes plance in that awkward middle ground - let's call it the No Man's Land - between the books and the movies. Bear with me if I screw something up; the movies are a lot easier to watch for reference, because I don't have to flip through page after page after page (but I am rereading the series, so that'll help a little bit).
The story: Basically, Harry's got a second cousin, and she goes to Hogwarts with him. Yep. I don't think I'll piss off too many people (unless there are some hardcore movie canon fans who are reading this...I say movie canon for a reason, but I won't say why. You guys are smart. You'll figure it out eventually.).
Um...I don't own anything, except for the characters I made. Everything belong to J.K. Rowling, the wonderful bright woman that she is, and Warner Bros. And the title is borrowed from The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, and that belongs to...whomever owns that. So don't sue me.
Flames are not welcome. They're mean, and they don't do anything. Criticism and reviews are encouraged. If you don't like something, please tell me why you didn't; just saying "This sucks!" without giving me a good reason isn't all that helpful.
So...yeah, I think that's it. If there's anything I forgot, then...dang. I guess I'll have to do another one of these later.
Updates won't be too frequent, but they will happen. I'm not sure if I should split this thing up...it goes from before Harry was born to Post Deathly Hallows, so it may take some work...
And now this author's note is way too long; sorry about that.
Read on and enjoy! :)
