Author has written 3 stories for Harry Potter. So I'm posting a couple essays I've written about the Harry Potter books. I love reading FanFiction but when it comes to writings I guess I'm more analytical. I love history and mythology and can spends hours researching origins and etymology. Bear with me because even though this isn't a story I really think it gets interesting. I used to run a Harry Potter fansite, RofPm, and for a time I had a bunch of writers publishing anything from stories to articles from others character's perspective but everything was based in this wonderful world. I used to write A LOT of HP riddles too. I took this Harry Potter english class and of course all the papers were about Harry Potter. I thought if there's one place I can share this and people might be interested, it's here. So I guess enjoy... and let me know what you think. =] |
