Zathara01 and i are having a discussion, input?
Hi all,
Sharing because I know many of us love her stories, and hopefully other authors can provide their ideas as well.
Here is the background,
It was evil author day sometime this week, bring with it a story called "Harry's Vow, from Zathara01...at least at ao3.
Its a fine work, with my asking in the comments what motivates an author to place a work in the evil author pyre.
These are stories an author for whatever reason likely does not intend to finish.
her wisdom was that she, due to at the time having just completed her child of iron work, not wishing to do the rewrite required.
meaning change a detail and ripples lead to reconstructing the source material..which I am unsure is such a bad thing.
as I consider though I am wondering if there might be a middle ground between rewriting source material, and retelling source material.
I recall many a post here where members are frustrated by works that end up rehashing hp source material, as well as posts complaining about odd leaps that do not make sense characterization wise.
So, is it possible in your opinion to meet in the middle?
make tiny changes that lead to interesting shifts but avoid major ripples requiring major rewriting of source material?
will save my own thoughts after I get your own..and if you are a member of both lists, simply post where most comfortable.
Thanks,
Kare

Hi All: ? Does anyone remember the name of the fic where Harry has left magical Britain and married a female shaman. They have two, or maybe three children together. If I remember correctly, Harry works for the ICW, or maybe it’s for the British crown taking down magical threats. Anyway, while away, new legislation has been passed in the Wizengamot and because Harry’s children have shown accidental magic, Ron and the aurors break in, stun Harry’s wife and take the one daughter off to Hogwarts. When Harry returns home, he loses his shit, contacts his boss and an attack on Hogwarts commences. I think Hermione had a lot to do with the new legislation and Hogwarts. That is all I can remember. ? The Blind Dragon ? ? ? Sent from for Windows ?

Re: Searching For Harry Potter Bond universe crossover
Garcia is a Criminal Minds character, so you might check the FF crossovers section, or add that fandom on your AO3 searches.
Anyone know of a Harry Potter fic where after the war he travels,? ends
up spending time with a nice lady by the name of Penelope Garcia who
teaches him how to be a computer hacker? Harry ends up working for the
British government and known by the moniker "Q".
It was a fun read. I'd like to read it again. Can anyone help?

Searching for a Harry raised by Voldermort fic
Hello all,
? ? Could someone please help me find a fanfiction where Voldermont take harry as his son. I remember that Nagini sometimes is human and acts like his mother. Part of the story is about his mother being hurt after an attack and he needs some therapy and meets Madam Longbottom and Neville. There's Voldermort sane and loving and I remember one point where the teachers go to talk to Voldermort, though they don't know it's him, about the changes he's making to the school and young Harry is asleep on his chest under a starry blanket. James and Lily may be alive and there may be a twin involved. It was posted on AO3. Can anyone help?

Re: Possible Theif - You decide!
Not that it excuses anything but at least he has good taste.
With Clell's story he was stealing from among the very best.

Re: Do you have a llama in your living room?
No llama here but looking at the `present' on my living room carpet, I believe one came through on its way to Miami last night... Must have been a tourist llama!
