Writing Contest Poll!

It's finally here! This is pretty simple. Each story is listed below by title and author. Read the stories and then vote for your favorites. Links for the PDFs and Epubs are below, and I am making a post alongside this that is just the stories to make it easier for everyone to read. Feel free to leave comments for the authors, but please be kind and keep it constructive. For a lot of people this might be their first story, and I know some who aren't native English speakers. Thank you and good...

Writing Contest Ends Today!

This is just a reminder that today is your last day to submit a story for the writing competition. You can still enter until tonight at midnight EST. Tomorrow, I'll be making a poll with all the stories attached in PDF and EPUB form. I'm sorry, but it would be too complicated to post each story individually. The poll will be left up for one week, until the 28th, when I will announce the winners. Good luck to everyone who entered a story!

30 Days: Chapter 10

Chapter 10

Harry stared into the swirling midst of the orb on his desk, lost in thought as the Floo burst to life. He didn’t need to look up to know who it was. He’d been waiting for the man for over an hour.

The man took two steps into the room and then stopped, an oppressive silence settling over the office.

“Why?” Harry asked, finally looking away from the orb and into the troubled blue eyes of the man he had counted as a mentor and friend. “Why didn’t you jus...

Tutor Me: Chapter 2

Chapter 2

Hermione stretched as she gradually woke, feeling oddly relaxed. As memories of the day before came back to her, she blushed lightly and sat up. When she’d asked Harry to teach her about dating, she hadn’t expected things to get so… physical. She’d thought he’d tell her what to do, not snog her senseless.

That said, it was quite enjoyable. Even now, Hermione felt a swell of excitement, remembering the feel of his lips against hers. Biting her lip, she hopped ou...

Unexpected Forest Delights (Submission by R. Collins)

R. Collins wanted to make a submission for the writing contest, but just for fun, not to compete. I decided to post this one early and give everyone a reminder they only have 4 days left to submit their stories for the competition. The 20th is the last day you can't get them in. After that, I'll post all the stories as PDF links, along with a poll so you can vote for your favorites. So far, I've got 6 submissions and I expect at least a couple more in the coming days. I've read all of them, a...

Patron Story Idea Poll

Here are the story ideas I picked for this month, I ended up going with 6 beacuse there were more submissions than usual. 

Pancor

Alright, let’s see if the time is ripe for this one now. It’s a quiet night in Gryffindor tower and Harry is enjoying some alone time in his dorm room when Hermione pops in. Turns out part of the reason it’s quiet is that the Gryffindor girls (who exactly is up for debate) are having a slumber party! But they got to the point of the night the...

Tutor Me: Chapter 1

A new short story to replace A Family Affair now that it's finished. I like doing these because it give me chance to explore new ideas without taking away too much time form my longer stories. I expect this one to run about 4-5 chapters. This takes place in an AU where James and Lily lived, no Voldemort, and Harry is a popular and talented wizard. Because of this, he and Hermione haven't gotten as close as they were in canon. Now that Hermione is in her final year, she turns to Harry for help...

A Family Affair: Chapter 3

Chapter 3

Waking up with a groan, Astoria threw off her covers with a sigh. Checking herself in the mirror, she used her wand to fix her hair and brush her teeth. As she straightened up, she ran her hands over the light blue silk nightie that barely covered her breasts with a smirk. It was even thinner and looser than the ones she’d worn last week, sure to draw the eye of any man, even Saint Potter.

She was sick and tired of Daphne rubbing her relationship with him in her face. ...

Thrown Back: Chapter 27

A/N: Some corrections made to Bones and Crouch's positions at the Ministry in the complete version. David Bones is Head Auror and Crouch is Head of the DMLE.

Chapter 27

Harry slept a bit late, thanks to the champagne the night before. Waking the girls, they got dressed and headed down to the kitchen, where Andromeda and Ted were already sipping tea while Trilla cooked breakfast.

“Oh, good,” Andromeda smiled. “I was just about to wake you. Head Auror Bones sent us an ow...

Patron Idea Post

It's that time again for you to give me your HP oneshot ideas to be turned into a story. In about a week, I'll pick what I think are the top 5 ideas and put them in a poll for everyone to vote on. The winner will get turned into a story before the end of the month. Remember to keep them Harry-centric oneshot, no underage, non-con, or anything else against Patreon ToS. Have fun, be creative, and good luck!

A Friend in Need: Chapter 28

Chapter 28

Donning their heavy winter clothes and boots, Harry, Hermione, Robert, and June trudged through the knee deep snow as they walked to the edge of the property.

“Ready?” Hermione asked.

Harry nodded. Raising her wand, Hermione pointed it towards the sky with a look of concentration on her face.

“Protego Totalum,” she incanted.

A tiny ball of pale blue magic shot into the air almost fifty feet before it stopped and expanded outwards rapidly, formi...

30 Days: Chapter 9

Edited 7/1/2023

Chapter 9

Stumbling out of the Floo, Harry brushed himself off. Glancing at the pile of paperwork sitting on his desk that had appeared overnight, he sighed and made his way to the door.

“Morning,” Penny said brightly.

She placed a cup of coffee in his hand and kissed him on the cheek.

“Thanks,” Harry smiled before he opened his mouth wide in a yawn.

“I’m afraid you have a busy morning,” Penny told him. “Amelia mov...

Thrown Back: Chapter 26

Fixed the mistakes with the names. Lucius' father is Abraxas, not Scorpius, and Yaxley has been changed to Rookwood. 6/26/2023

Chapter 26

Harry slid open the door to a cabin at the back of the Hogwarts Express. Sitting in the middle of the bench, Lily sat to his right, against the window, and Narcissa sat on his left. With a smirk, Bellatrix sat down on his lap. Smiling, Harry wrapped his arms around her waist.

“Mind if we join you?” Marlene asked, poking her ...

Falling for Fleur: Chapter 10

Chapter 10

Harry had hoped to spend a little time alone with Fleur in the Beauxbatons carriage, but Madame Maxime had spotted him. Rather than stay and risk upsetting her, he’d given Fleur a kiss and headed back to Gryffindor Tower. Stepping through the portrait hole, he walked into the common room and spotted a familiar head of bushy brown hair sitting above the back of the couch near the fire.

Smiling to himself, Harry walked over to the couch, braced his hand on the back of i...

Falling For Fleur: Chapter 9

A/N: Sorry for the short chapter. I had some technical difficulties due to a thunderstorm. I'll be doing another chapter right after this to keep the story moving. I know I've neglected this story a bit lately.

Chapter 9

“One, two, three, four… one, two, three, four…” Hermione counted.

Harry stared down at his feet, desperately trying not to step on Fleur’s toe. An old gramophone sat on a table in the abandoned classroom, an even older, warbling tune pla...

30 Days: Chapter 8

Chapter 8

Harry stumbled out of the Floo to a round of giggles from the girls. Rolling his eyes, he dusted off his clothes. When he looked up, he couldn’t help but stare at Penny for a moment. She wore a pair of tight jeans and a red halter top. A flush heated up his cheek as his gaze darted to her face. Smirking, Penny walked forward, kissing his cheek and hugging him tightly.

“Come on, I ordered pizza,” she smiled.

Walking over to the small kitchen, Harry raised his ...

Thrown Back: Chapter 25

Chapter 25

By the time Harry had fully recovered from his injuries, it was time for the end of year exams. While Lily, Narcissa, and Bellatrix were worried about their grades, he had other things on his mind. For him, exams were a breeze. He only needed to read a question for the answer to come to mind. Often, his answers would be far more comprehensive than what would be expected of someone his age. Harry knew it was cheating, to an extent, but it wasn’t like he could turn it off. 2023-06-08 10:29:51 +0000 UTC View Post

2 Years on Patreon

Today marks my 2 year anniversary on Patreon. When I started writing, I never expected to get to this point. For those of you that don't know, I started my Patreon shortly after my father passed, leaving me to take care of my disabled mother. At the time, I was cleaning office buildings and making just enough to get by. Writing was supposed to be a way of making a bit of extra money from something I always dreamed of doing. Within 6 months, I was making more from Patreon that I was from my da...
