Author has written 8 stories for Harry Potter.

I used to write fanfiction years ago, but have been busy doing other creative endeavors since then (including writing magazine articles and two non-fiction books, all published). But then Harry Potter caught me in his snare and I just had to write a sixth year fic, which I THOUGHT would be my one HP story. Unfortunately for the rest of my life (writing fanfic takes time away from other things!), "The Refiner's Fire" led to a sequel, "The Time of Destiny" which then required ficlets and another novel ("Now and Forever" also complete) to fill in the gap between "Destiny's" end and its epilogue. "The Time of Destiny" begins literally minutes after "Refiner's" ends. You'll need to read "Refiner's" first to make sense of "Destiny." "Destiny's" epilogue tells you what happens to the main characters for quite a few years in the future.

I have written two original novels which are now on Amazon dot com - go to Amazon and do a search on "Lynda Sappington." My novelsre the first two in a hero-quest/journey-type fantasy trilogy. The first book is titled "Star Sons: Dawn of the Two" and the second one, "Star Sons Book 2: The Gathering Alliance." If you read them, please post reviews on Amazon, which are supposed to raise my search engine status! Thanks!

I wasn't a "shipper" when I started writing these fics, but from writing them, I've become a serious H/G shipper - I just cannot see Harry with anyone else as the love of his life, but JKR didn't develop Ginny nor their relationship enough in canon to make it believable that she was his soul mate - so I did it myself.

I'm originally from the South, have lived in the Midwest for many years, have been married over 40 years, have two grown and married children, and am old enough to be a grandparent to the Trio. I'm also a huge fan of Dan Radcliffe, who I believe embodies the Harry of the books perfectly. The "steely-eyed Harry" posters from Goblet of Fire and from the Deathly Hallows posters are exactly the way I envision my Harry -- older, battle-hardened, resolute.

I hope you enjoy my stories. If you'd like to join my Yahoo group click here Harry Potter and the Refiner's Fire (Yahoo! Group) Once you join, add it to your "Favorites." I occasionally write a drabble of some kind which is only published on the Yahoo site. We also have fan art, photo files and links to reader-recommended stories. I hope you enjoy my stories!

Harry Potter and the Wand of Uru by Altairadactyl reviews
After slipping diagonally through time and space to a familiar time in an unfamiliar world, Harry finds himself fighting to save a future that's not quite what he remembers. Fun fact! austin-flare-potter says "I never hated something like I hate Harry in this story."

Yellow Submarine by deadwoodpecker reviews
Alternate Universe. Two hurting, almost broken people reach toward the sunlight. This story has implied sexual violence and a Ginny who is two years younger than she was in canon.

White Flags by MarauderLover7 reviews
Who'd have thought that the man who tore them apart was the one who brought them together? Head Girl Lily Evans is determined to keep her distance from the Marauders but that's easier said than done when James is Head Boy and in love with her. It also doesn't help that she becomes rather attached to Sirius during an eventful Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson...

The Horse by Elsa2 reviews
Looking after a Muggle animal should be easy compared to saving Hogwarts from Voldemort. Harry and Draco might disagree with that. Featuring Luna, Marauders, peppermints and, of course, a tall, black, badtempered horse named Simon.
