LMH cover

Ten years ago yesterday, I started posting my first ever Harry/Draco fic, Left My Heart.
(If you’re interested: my web site | Skyehawke | AO3)


I started writing it on a whim, without reading a lot in the fandom (as is typical for me), and later learned that I’d done all the things HP fanfic writers weren’t supposed to do: make the boys adults (this was just after book 5), set the fic in the US, write lots of OCs, show the boys having sex with OCs before finally getting them together, and so on. But I was new in that fandom and I didn’t know the rules, and all I really wanted to do was write my story. So I posted chapters to my LJ and thought just my friends would read it. Quite a lot of people read it, in the end, and many of them even enjoyed it. Amazingly enough, ten years later, I still get comments on it.

So Happy Birthday, LMH! And may that Harry and Draco live happily ever after. :-)

I got a package in the mail today from [livejournal.com profile] pombagira, all the way from New Zealand. She'd told me she'd printed and bound a copy of LMH and wanted to send it to me, and I was really touched! But I had no idea that was she was actually sending me was a BOOK.

A BOOK.

A frickin' book!!! )

Sorry this is late! As luck would have it, my cable modem was out this morning. I'm posting this from Starbucks!

ETA: I think I've fixed all the typos! My poor betas had been stretched to the limit this time, and this part didn't get the same level of scrutiny as the others. Apologies!

Where we left off last time:

He found himself standing in a room with no windows, dimly lit by a single light bulb. Manny released him and stepped toward the door. He turned back to Harry as he opened it.

"Vamonos, Mr. Potter."

Harry steeled himself and followed. )
