We are the FanFiction authors.

We've pulled all-nighters reading stories not because we have no life, but because the stories are too powerful to dream of setting aside.

We've beta-read, and we've reviewed, and we've flamed, and we've written the things that we wanted to write.

We created Katniss/Finnick because we saw two broken people with a little spark left in them, unyielding to the curveballs life likes to throw.

We created Hermonie/Draco because we saw the chemistry behind two stubborn people, the walking oppositions of each other, both with something to prove to the world.

We signed the death certificates of some of the best characters ever imagined.

We've been on journeys through heaven and hell.

We've crossed dimensions and planets and universes to force characters that belong elsewhere together.

We dared to do the impossible.

We refused to let the story close on the last page with the words "The End."

We continued to write, we've continued to dream, no matter how many people try to shoot us down.

We practically invented the word imagination.

We are the Fanfiction authors, welcome to our world, where fiction is reality.

To Infinity And Beyond,
