Would you like to maintain your friends locked journal, but still wish for your writing to find readership beyond the confines of your flist?
Well search no more!
All types of Harry Potter Gen Fic are welcome here. Character based pieces, plot or action based pieces, and friendship pieces are all appreciated and encouraged.

Date: 2008-04-18 10:32 pm (UTC)As someone who was abused myself, I can say this is absolutely spot on. That's not to say I didn't have significant issues from it, but to me, it was the way things were, and had been from the age of four. I didn't know any other way of life. For a few years, I thought everyone had family situations similar to mine.
And the one thing I've struggled with since my mid-teens is telling people - and not for the reason you'd think, although disclosure *is* a bitch. It's because people who knew me and were my friends got incredibly upset and angry when I told them, for me, and I'd be left feeling slightly guilty and kind of confused and thinking, "Well, I'm glad I didn't actually tell you any details, because, WHOA, you're taking this hard." Because for me, it's just my life.
These days, I could talk about the abuse the same casual way I'd talk about what I saw on television last night, but I can't, because I just end up upsetting people.
