Why have I been engrossed in Harry Potter Fanfic lately.


Fan fiction sites are frequented by those who are in love (and often obsessed with) characters from popular or commercial sources, such as books, moveis and such. Harry Potter fanfic is quite popular now. It features lots of adolecent sexual angst.

The combination of lots of juicy adolicent sexual angst and classic orphan and early childhood abandonment issues are a fine lever to access my own internal stories. Since I cannot conciously remember any concrete details of my childhood, I'm trying to access the emotions directly by reading these stories. And, it's working quite well. I've spent quite a few of the past few days' crying.
