History

In 2006, RogueSugah wrote of discovering fandom:

Like most fans, I started out reading the HP books. I was lucky enough to discover them late in the series (after GoF had already been published), so I had four books to read, one right after the other, and didn't have to put up with years between installments. I did have to wait for PoA [the film], but only for 6 months or so, and I managed to keep myself busy re-reading books 1-4, working, etc. until it was finished. Waiting for OotP was much harder to do, but somehow I managed and needless to say, I was beyond excited when it was finally for sale at my local bookstore. Not only did I get a copy on the first day, I finished it in no time.

The problem was, once I was finished, I was at a loss for what to do to get my HP fix. All these questions kept popping into my mind about what was going to happen and where J.K. Rowling was headed and I just knew that I wouldn’t be able to go years without any answers this time. So I got online and started lurking at some of the HP sites and that lead me to this wonderful thing called fan fiction. And WOW, was there a lot of it. More than enough to keep me entertained. For a month or two anyway. But my mind kept going back to where J.K. Rowling left off in OotP and what the Power the Dark Lord knows not could be. And then one day while I was reading a story it dawned on me that I could do this. I could write a fan fiction. All I needed was a plot. And not only could I entertain myself, and answer all the questions I wanted answered the way I wanted them to answered, I could share it with others and entertain them as well. So I started mapping out a storyline in my head, and once I started writing it all just fell into place.
