Harry Potter and the Years Between

by Despedida

This is my take on what happened between the end of the seventh book/ eighth movie and the epilogue. It is kind of a crossover between the book and the movie but only in the beginning. It is canon so that means Harry Ginny and Ron Hermione. if you don't like it then don't read it. Rated T because I'm paranoid. There might be language and suggestive themes in future chapters.

2. A Final Goodbye The End of an Era

I never thought I would feel the need to revisit this site or my old stories, but recent conversations with some friends of mine sparked my nostalgia.

I started writing fanfiction when I was 12 as a way to escape my reality. When I started I had no idea what I was in for. Fanfiction helped me makes some great friends and find a community of people that made me feel like I belonged somewhere.

To everyone who keeps reading these stories, my younger self is eternally grateful. The fact that stories I wrote close to a decade ago still piques the interest of people means the world to me, no matter how much I cringe when I try to read my old works.

I'm about to graduate college now, and I will never ever re-visit these stories, but I hope that they might be an inspiration for others to dive into to world of fanfiction and inspire them to create the way other people's fics inspired me.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you to anyone and everyone who read, reviewed, liked, even disliked my stories.

Fanfiction will forever hold a special place in my heart, and this is the site that started my love for the craft.

To whatever the future may hold, goodbye , you and your community changed my life for the better, and I will be forever grateful for that.
