Hello - I have posted a more complete bio on FanFiction (click the link below) so I'll not repeat myself here. I have finally posted all my stories there, but I will continue to post all my H/G stories on SIYE. The definitive version of "White Bird Must Fly" will remain here as FanFiction does not allow songfics and had to be edited down somewhat for that site.
Thanks for reading, and your reviews are most appreciated!

Summary: Harry Potter manages to enter Hogwarts at age seven and takes some time to learn just how unique his situation is. Eventually others want to take advantage of his uniqueness as well, and the Wizarding World will never be the same.
This all started with a crazy idea for a challenge here at SIYE, inspired by another fic I'd read years before and have been unable to find again, where Harry and Draco spend a summer at Hogwarts exploring the canvas world. Three stories are planned: The Art of Being Harry (complete - PS replacement), The Art of Pranking (on temp hiatus - CoS replacement), and finally The Art of Survival (future).
 
Challenge WinnerFeatured Story The Art of Being Harry by gryffins_door starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 24]
** Honourable Mention in the July 2019 Dumbledore's Silver Trinket for Best New Story **
***Winner of Best Overall, People's Choice, and Most Unexpected in the First Time for Everything Challenge*** The shiny red train was a great place to hide from his bullying cousin, but little Harry had no knowledge of its magical nature, had never seen a magical castle, and definitely no experience with magical paintings. And so began a great adventure exploring unexpected hidden places, all in plain sight...

Along the Winding Road by gryffins_door starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 13]
It looked like any normal playing card, but once young Harry touched it, his life would take a different path, and he learns the truth about himself quite by accident. One-shot.

Body Art by gryffins_door starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 8]
During a lazy afternoon with his new girlfriend, Harry gains a new appreciation for human skin. Not surprisingly, Ginny does as well. Yet another bit of missing fluff from HBP. Enjoy!

Decades by gryffins_door starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 30]
Trapped in a world where my ex-girlfriend thinks the irony is bloody hilarious, I have foreknowledge - a powerful (and dangerous) tool that should help me win the fight before the enemy knows what hit them. Little did I know that the fight was not only with the enemy.

Decades - the Tribulations by gryffins_door starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 11]
(SUPERSEDED - go read the completed version: Decades)


"Dumbledore thought you were the better man to become Master of Death, didn’t he, Potter? Trying to play God, are you boy?"


I could only laugh, "That’s really funny, minister, because I rather thought I was trying to prevent some other fool playing God."


Harry used his foreknowledge of Book 7 to quickly and quietly defeat Tom Riddle, but he wasn't quite prepared for the truth about his new circumstances. A pre-7th year AU.

Dr Xenophilius: or How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The AK by gryffins_door starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 9]
"Why won't you DIE?" Can Lord Voldemort discover the secret to Harry Potter's resilience? Or the other secret that's not in his head? How did Sirius manage to drive back through the veil? Is Ginny really stuck on Harry? How far will Mr. Lovegood go to save his daughter?
Only one thing is certain, this one will end with a bang . . .
