2001 Holiday Special

It's that most wonderful time of the year again... and the friendly HP_Paradise List Mods have been busy little elves conspiring in a certain workshop somewhere near the North Pole... conjuring up Christmas cookies and other holiday sweets just for you. Some of the best in Harry Potter fanfiction has the holidays as a backdrop. What avid fanfic reader will ever forget Peter's alienation and angst as he watches the Marauders celebrate their last December together in Hyphen's classic *A Rat's Tale: O Come All Ye Faithful?* Rememeber [sic] Sirius and Cordelia's holiday wedding in Penny and Carole's *A Sirius Affair*? And the agonizing Christmas Hermione suffered in Lori's PoU sequel, *The Show That Never Ends*?

The Paradise team is pleased to announce that we will be offering more than three solid weeks of fanfiction delights. In all of our takes of the Harry Potter universe, 'tis the season to celebrate... and celebrate we will. Every single day from the Holiday Special's kickoff on 12/10 until Christmas, there will be a new fanfiction in the e-mailboxes of Paradise members. There will be stories by seven of your friendly List Mods: Al, Ebony, Heidi, Jana, John, Viola, and Yael. In addition, we are pleased to announce three guest authors whose names nearly every Harry Potter fanfiction reader knows: Carole, author of *A Sirius Affair*. parker, author of the "Interludes" short stories. And Cassandra Claire, author of *Draco Dormiens*, *Draco Sinister*, and *Draco Veritas*.

In addition, there will be holiday-themed artwork by the phenomenal Karen McVicker and the widely reknowned Starling. We issue an open invitation for other artists to participate... if you have a Christmas or other holiday HP drawing, either general HP canon or based in one of the Paradise list stories, please send it to [Ebony].[1]
