Magnetic Pole first created her livejournal in March 2006, participating in Harry Potter fandom by writing Remus/Sirius stories in the month-long Wellymuck community challenge. Her stories quickly became known for their handling of the complexities of topics such as family relationships, queer identities, and coming out.
