❝ If anyone asks where I am, I've left the country! ❞ WHERE THE ADMINS WILL GIVE YOU ADVICE ON HOW TO WRITE YOUR FICS!

This is THE ULTIMATE GUIDE to Harry Potter fanfictions. Here, you will learn the dos and don'ts of the wizarding world, and how to handle your fanfiction in a way worthy of Rowling herself. You can learn to avoid cliches, think creatively, and make your readers forget they're reading a fanfiction at all, which is the goal. Hi, I'm Ellie, and I may not be JKR, and my word is not law, I have quite a bit of experience writing fanfiction. I will be the first to admit, too, that some of my earlier works are as cliche as Harry Potter having a twin sister, and there's no shame in that! Just be glad you can learn from your mistakes, and mine, and be prepared for a couple of laughs along the way! Warning: This is NOT a rant book. I don't just say what I think is wrong with fanfics, I give suggestions to make them better. Very rarely will I let my emotions control what I'm writing in this book. Feel free to rant within the comments, but don't expect me to do the same!

BECAUSE SOMETIMES YOUR OTP NEEDS TO BE AN OT+

This is pretty much what it sounds like. Sometimes I have small snippets of stories that never become full blown but are still pretty fun to write (and read). I also have a few chapters from my stories that got rejected or went in a different direction. Most of these are in the fantasy or science-fiction genre and I would predict most of them are based in GT interactions (since those are my obsession). In short, this is just a "hutch" to keep my plot bunnies in. Feel free to pet them :D

I know you wanna be a writer girl (or boy) 🙄, so click the book!
