  2. Summary

    In a world where tradition reigns supreme, whether real or imagined, San Francisco defines itself as the place where the new disrupts the old, usurping itself over and over again. Immigrants from all over flock to this city, receiving various degrees of welcome and rejection. But this bleeding edge of modernity is not so far from the past as it likes to think. The rules are still being written every single day. The only way out is to muddle through to the future, whatever it holds, and see what fortunes rise and fall.

    Snippets of life covering original characters in Otherverse San Francisco.

    Interesting exploration of feudalism. The only time any story, traditionally published or fanfic, has made me able to care about a kingdom's tax policy in fiction.

    Summary

    The practice is the intersection of self, word, and pattern. Word is inviolate, and patterns have been a part of Naomi Cohen's life for as long as she can remember. Her Self, however, has reached a point of flux, and in that challenge risks collapse.

    So obviously the solution is ignore the problem and hope it goes away. Naomi is a student of the past, after all.

    And the one thing everyone knows about the past is that it has never, ever had even the slightest bearing on the present.

    Deep dive into Jewish identity within urban fantasy speculative fiction. Really good at depicting the more mystical side of Practice.

    Summary

    The unfortunate loss of almost all late 20th and early 21st century written works has forced scholars to try and reconstruct the literary history of the period using only a handful of hand-bound novels. Join us as we look at the style and themes of one of the most significant works of the period. (Consent forms for this course may be turned in at the Dean's office.)

    Entertaining mediation on fanfic, analysis, and finding meaning in a text far beyond the original context it was written in.

    Really nice AU that humanizes Slytherin but doesn't whitewash their bad qualities. Ginny is made a lot more interesting of a character by putting her in Slytherin this way.

    Summary

    Ron maybe accidentally-on-purpose becomes a dark wizard, and everything changes.

    (a canon rewrite, with a bit of a twist)
    (also this is not a 'Ron is Evil, actually' fic so if that's what you're expecting, maybe give this a skip)

    Lots of humor here. Interesting take on how magic works in the HP universe.
