    Summary

    Reeling from his ordeal in the graveyard, Harry Potter is left anxious and isolated with the Dursleys. A mysterious letter and some uninvited guests cause him to rethink his plans for the summer - particularly the part about staying at Privet Drive. Join Harry as he takes on corrupt Ministries, finds love, inspires his friends, and learns magic at the side of his greatest mentor, Albus Dumbledore.

    5th year canon divergence, no bashing. Meant to replace books 5-7: mostly follows canon lore as outlined in those books, but takes character development post-Goblet of Fire in slightly different directions. Explores what might have happened if Harry was given the help and support he needed, while avoiding the standard !Indy tropes.

    Summary

    Most things didn't come naturally to Harry - like brewing a Pepperup Potion or making a halfway decent treacle tart. In fact, the only thing that had come naturally was Quidditch… until he met Ginny Weasley.

    Summary

    While I was reading the Harry Potter books, I increasingly came to wonder why Ginny did not play a more important part in Harry's life, especially after the events in Half-Blood Prince. So, with Harry pretty much ignoring her during and after the Battle, but with Ginny being the last thought in Harry's mind before he "died," I decided their story needed a remedy. The Hog's Head is an unabashed romance that follows the lives of Harry and Ginny from the Battle of Hogwarts through the following year.

    Chapter One, "Faith," begins during the Battle as Lord Voldemort calls his truce. It follows canon precisely but from Ginny's point of view. My own plot, post-DH, begins with Chapter Two, "Anticipation."

    Descriptions of Hogsmeade and locations of its various buildings are based on the map of Hogsmeade in The Harry Potter Lexicon.

    While you are at it, please take a look at my original novels, Hancock Hill and Acting Obsessed.
