So, here we are. The last fic is done. The last word typed with excitement and wonder. It had been quite a ride working on these HP fics. Although I moved here later, I started the first one “Aftermath” in 2006. If you read them through, I am sure you will see my style change a lot from that simple fic, through “Monster” and into the final two part “Home” and “Return”.

I know some of you have only been on this journey with me a short time. Others have followed vocally for years. I appreciate all of the comments, helpful, insightful or even just expressing yourself reactions to what I put my poor characters through. I wrote these for myself and - later - for my partner, but seeing others get swept up I the tale filled me with joy.

Now, I am setting down this quill, so to speak, to work with a new one. I’m going to focus on my own stories and ideas. Maybe someday I will publish again; I hope so. In any event, thank you. Thank you for your patience, gentle corrections and just for letting me share my visions of the Harry Potter world with you all. I will still see and reply to comments.

Yours, sincerely,

Lumos
