Summary
‘Okay, fine,’ Ginny relented. ‘But don’t bring this up outside of the hotel.’ Of course, she was actually dying to tell the story, because it was funny, yes, because she was intoxicated by the spicy gargoyle grappa, yes, but mostly because taking the mickey out of Harry was her favourite activity in the universe.
A bacchanalian hen-do in the Greek Isles prompts Ginny to recount how Harry learned to conduct a life in the public eye.

Summary
[NOTE: THIS WORK IS A PODCAST TRANSCRIPT]
The Fanfic Writers' Craft is a podcast that discusses all things fanfiction with a focus on the art and science of writing for the enjoyment of fan communities. In this first episode, pebblysand and copper-dust sit down to chat about how they come up with new ideas for fanfic, their relationship to plotting and outlines, how they usually try and dig themselves out of plot holes, and the value of getting comments from readers as they go along. They also go on a rather long tangent about a condition pebblysand has, called aphantasia, and how it impacts her writing style.
Hope you enjoy!

Summary
After the end of the first war, Remus goes to New Orleans to forget.
Sirius turned his head, then, and fixed Remus with a look, cool and sharp and half-in-shadow. One corner of his mouth curled, and one eyebrow cocked, as if to say, I see you, Moony. Trying not to look.
It had taken until the end of sixth year before he could let himself think about why it was so hard to keep his eyes to himself. The back of Sirius's long graceful neck in detentions, the trail of black hairs down his stomach when his shirt lifted as he stretched. There was something mythical about him, chiseled and marble-white like an ancient statue; something remote in the same way too. Remus wanted to touch him—in the way one wants to touch a fine work of art. In the way one almost wants to rend it with his hands and eat it.
God, Remus had thought. Something else wrong with me. Something else I can never let anyone find out.
