Maybe many years down the line after this website has run its course, she might find a good way to compile stuff into book form. I mean, I know her publishers will want her to, as it will be guaranteed $$$.

Legendary Posts: 2,342 Group: Admin Member #32 Joined: February 12, 2005	So.. I'm trying to grasp what it is. Is it an official fan-fiction.net Harry Potter style? Or a way for her to publish things.... without publishing them on paper?

Jedi Master of Making Things Sound Dirty Posts: 2,241 Group: Admin Member #5 Joined: December 31, 2004	I think we are all trying to do the same, Matt. I think it's one of those things that's hard to explain, you just have to see it for yourself. And unfortunately, after all the hype, it won't be available until October for most of us. It would seem, though, that we sort of roleplay along with the events of the story, starting with the Sorcerer's Stone, and she will be providing us new content along the way. But it doesn't appear to be a full on encyclopedia or MMO. I'll have to listen to the latest Mugglecast, they'll probably have better speculation and explanation.

The Picture Whore Posts: 827 Group: Advisor Member #7 Joined: December 31, 2004	Apparently she is also adding little tid-bits she took out that go along with the story but don't really change it... its...confusing. Its like a book come to life from the info I have. You are living the novels, with extra events that happend inbetween the ones we've already read about, and eventually comeing to the same conclusion. if that makes any sense.

Jedi Master of Making Things Sound Dirty Posts: 2,241 Group: Admin Member #5 Joined: December 31, 2004	I saw something about a preview coming tomorrow. Maybe that will shed more light? In any case, should be at least a little more exciting than just fan fiction.
