Now I'm kind of curious about what the relationship between Nick Carroway and Jay Gatsby /was/ like.

Saw this on Figment, and I just had to share it here for all of us HP nuts.

Also, there's an article on the sidebar about how we all have to be bad writers at first, if you want to look. Completely true. I found my lit folder the other day and.....Lord have mercy. I actually named a character Mr. Admirable...... -

Tiny magical Billy Idol? Ahahaha...
I've gotta say, though, Hogwarts being in Harry's head...I'm pretty sure I've seen that done in badfic, but now I really want to see it done heartbreakingly well in the hands of a good author.
Thanks for sharing!

As far as I know, he's a singer- possibly of rock and roll- with, presumably, bleach-blond hair. He may also be British and dress in dark colors, possibly even a long leather jacket. Of course, this is mostly guesswork based on the fact that both Spike of BtVS fame and now Draco as well have been compared to him.
Like I said, I'm probably not the best person to ask. The only information I'm really sure of is that he's a singer, and even that might be wrong, so we'll just say he's a celebrity who may or may not be possessed of some or all of the characteristics listed above, and leave it at that.

That actually approximates to what I knew about Harry Potter from friends and such before actually reading it.
And on the other note, I swear blind that the Sues in my old writing are something near TOS-caliber. I found an old notebook of mine the other day and nearly wept. Any one of the characters would literally check off any charge list you cared to name. Embarrassing, especially if you consider how proud I was of those stories when I was eight. -

Bad idea... by

A. James's patronus was a stag, Lily's a doe. Technically that means their soul mates. Severus Snape is also a doe...I've seen HPSS slash (which I despise) but......JPSS?
B. Harry is Lily and Sev's son. Harry becomes BWL, James is left in professor position. How does he handle it? I don't think he'd react as badly as Sev did....would he? No idea....
Sorry about Sev instead of Snape.....just wrote a weird scene with Sev and OC friendshipness. (And I don't know where it came from) -

And that writing but is so true... Even some stuff I did less than a year ago makes me shudder, and I'm sure what I'm writing now will look terribly bad in a short while.
Still, it's fun.
