The Fan Fiction I Sometimes Write
I fell in love with JKRollins, Harry Potter series the year the movie came out. My daughter had a teacher in school who started reading her class the first book. When school ended, she begged me to pick up where her teacher had left off. (Or at least buy the books for her as they came out so she could continue following it.
I did continue reading the stories myself as well as watching the movies. The movies led to joining RP sites. The RP sites led to reading the fan fiction.
Finally, the day came that I got yet ANOTHER rejection letter on my own, meager writing. I threw my hands up and declared to the universe that I quit. But, by then I had begun to visit the fan fiction sites on a regular basis. Being the tale weaver I am, I could not stop myself from constantly wondering what if on the stories I read. I decided I would try my hand at writing the Fan Fiction myself.
What followed was a never ending addiction that has, I believe, helped to improve my own story-telling skills. I know JKR is not a big fan of fan fiction, but I think if it had not been for trying to hone my skills with her wonderful characters, I never would have gotten good enough to be able to publish my own works. I will always be grateful to her for the wonderful story she told which inspired me so very much!
