charter: Well written and entertaining Harry Potter fanfiction of all genres, although there is a strong leaning towards AU stories. Minimum cutoff of 20,000 words. We also present the biweekly Blindingly Brilliant Featured Story Award.

Featured Story: 'Back to Back Then' by Gilthas. A completed timetravel fic that is well written and highly entertaining. Better than the cool magic and riveting battle scenes, however, is its handling of the emotional impact of war. And it has a sequel!
