So I got invited to submit an essay to the latest Slashcast! I submitted a piece called "The Five Keyes to Writing Post DH H/D."

I'll post it here tomorrow... I'm too sleepy to proof read it now.

But you can listen to the podcast of it here:

I used my "NPR Voice." Hee!

Here's the essay...

Five Keys To Writing Post Deathly Hallows Harry/Draco
By Ravenna C. Tan

Written for the "Fandom Opinion" segment of Slashcast, which podcast can be heard here:

Well, HD-shippers, there's good news and bad news. The bad news is that the epilogue exists, and we know Draco didn't end up with Harry after all. The good news is that given the ages of the children in the epilogue, there's a good 6 to 7 years right after Voldemort's fall when Harry and Draco could have been having a torrid post-war affair. This interregnum is just one of the many gifts JK Rowling gave to us HD-devotees in Deathly Hallows, including that lovely tandem boom ride rescue.

If you're going to write what I'll call H/D Interregnum Fic, though, here are the five questions I feel I need to answer for myself, either in the story or in the background of the characters I use when writing it, even if the answers don't make it to the page. (Though they usually do...)
