Essays about Harry Potter. My question: is it possible to write these without being flames. Because the wank, you know.

I want to write a couple of essays based on some of the things I've learnt this semester. So about the school mostly. And the constructed identities within the HP world. How class is so important, or wealth at least. How Hogwarts hasn't quite discovered post-modernist ideas about teaching yet (I wouldn't mention the phrase post-modern in Snape's classroom, or McGonagall's either.) The total lack of support and extra help given to 'gifted' children at Hogwarts (I'm thinking Hermione and Percy, mostly)

So there's all these ideas. Would anyone be interested in reading?

Absolutely! And I bet calanthe_b would be as well.

Avoiding the flames, etc, might only be done by f-locking... I dunno. But I'd still love to read it.

You bet, and I'm sure musesfool would read too.

Yes! :) No one can do anything in HP without getting wanked, so maybe f-locking is the answer?

You could post them in the HP_Essays community?
