Emily Connor and the Forbidden Forest
Being a muggle-born at Hogwarts was bad enough, but being poor and a commoner in a school that was populated with royalty and nobility was enough to make Emily Connor cry. She endured, however, and in her seventh and final year she discovered friends that she never knew she had, and evils that she never dreamed existed.

My Potterhead daughter challenged me to write a HP-style fanfiction. I admit, I've never read the books so I had to draw my information from the movies and from her vast knowledge of Potter lore. NOTE: I committed two major sins in this story, so if you are a "Potter Purist", they might upset you. #1: I know that JKR has stated that their is no tuition at Hogwarts, but I needed there to be a cost to make this story work. #2: My daughter gave me a list of spells to use, but I didn't tell her that the story takes place in 1899, so my frequent use of Muffliato takes place some 60 years before Snape (who wrote the spell) is born. If you can get past these two infractions, I believe that you might enjoy the story.
