okay, I really hope that he doesn't get very embarrassed about this, but I have to go for lightofdaye as the creator I want to talk about.
I discovered lightofdaye by accident while browsing around active hp comms, but it was the best happy accident I hit in fandom in a while.
to put it poetically, Lightofdaye is a rare, priceless diamond in the never-ending mine of the hp fandom. Because while I was agonizing about the lack of Harry het / general Het fanfiction, that is Not Harry/Ginny or Harry/Hermione, in the drowning sea of slash and cross-gen that kind of taken over, he came with his delightful Harry/Demelza ficlets and his harry/luna.. and even Harry/Susan! (my second otp)
and his stuff is some of THE BEST I read in YEARS.
What, originally, made stick around to watch his work were these three things:
1. He Wrote Harry Het. Really, Really Great flawless-IC! Harry Het. (and Rare! Harry Het. None of that Harry/Ginny or Harry/Hermione but... Harry/Demelza (which became a favorite), Harry/Daphne...
2. He wrote amazing fics/ficlets of My favorite pairings and OTPs--- Harry/Susan, Harry/Luna, Ron/Hermione, Ginny/Neville. All pitch perfect IC!
3. He went and wrote Albus Potter het! sexy, this-is-now-my-headcanon-for-Albus Potter het!
and then I further fell in love with his work because of its authentic uk/english-ness, Flawless characterization that grow organically from Rowling's, A love of Rare pairings (His Ginny/Dean piece! *well, Ginny/Dean/Demelza* how much Ginny/Dean you see in the hp fandom, really? and that well written?) ,Sexy fics that are sexy without being upsettingly explicit...
and if that wasn't enough he's witty/fun and such a sweet guy.
so Definitely I recommend Everyone go send him praises because he deserves them all.
Here's a Few of my favorite fics from him:
Sleeping On Her Sofa (Harry/Susan)
