Just a few links that might be useful to slash and other fan writers, particularly in Harry Potter fandom.WARNING these links may take you to content inappropriate for minors including sex, violence and strong language.

If you would like to tell me what you think of this site, of my writing (links in the bar on the left) or have more links you would like me to add to this site please email me.

On this site
Reference notes on Britspeak and culture for (Harry Potter slash) authors last updated January 2008
Originally, this was on my LiveJournal, but I've moved it here so I don't have to worry about it getting too long for one post. Vocabulary, language usage, culture, etc. particularly for writers from other places who want their fic to have an air of authenticity.

Icons by me relating to Harry Potter fandom
Not really a fanfiction resource as such, but a set of icons made by me which I'm happy for people to use. They range from G to R. Please DO NOT hotlink; please DO credit me (flame or flamewarrior) as the creator.

Elsewhere on the web
The Harry Potter Lexicon
If you want your fic to be HP canon compliant, this is the site for you.
Suitable for minors.

The Akashic Record
'Being a Compendium of Lore, Onomatology, Miscellanea, and Pareidolia Relating to the Universe of Harry Potter With Commentary Esoteric and Exoteric'. A different approach from HP Lexicon - more like an actual lexicon. Plain text, searchable, also divided by book, so you don't have to be spoilered if you don't want to be.
Suitable for minors.

Azalais du Plessix Malfoy's take on the Hogwarts houses
Azalais wrote this for the Lightning War RPG on Live Journal, but I happen to think it's the clearest, best argued analysis of the Hogwarts houses (and why JKR doesn't understand Slytherin house) anywhere on the web.

Vampy Zach's HD Slasher's Dictionary
This was written to help readers and writers of Harry Potter/Draco Malfoy fiction to understand the language used to describe stories and character and to help them find a particular style of fic or describe their own fics to your anxious readers. (Terms are also used in almost any kind of fan fiction.)

Minotaur's Sex Tips for Slash Writers and Minotaur's Q & A
Minotaur is a gay man who writes slash and has both a static site of sex tips and a searchable database of questions and answers from slash authors. Great stuff for those going for authenticity in their sex scenes.

One for the Puppy Shippers
The place to go for authentic details when Padfoot or a Werewolf have a starring role in your slashfic. Also has relevant links for anyone wanting to write a centaur fic. ;-)
