That's a good question. I've heard about it but never read it. And while I'm
here can I heartily recommend The Mirror of Maybe by Midnight Blue. It's on
ff.n and she has a yahoo group too. It is one of the most original and well
written pieces of fiction I've read. It's Harry/Severus (or will be
eventuially) but even those people who don't like the idea of Harry/Sev
normally tend to like this. (as long as they don't object to slah at any
rate)

As the person who started the topic and is still looking for good 
fic, I completely forgive you. I have been around the fanfic block 
more than a few times with Buffy and Roswell fic, and I initially 
agreed with your sentiments. I have seen more than one fanfic author 
plagarize and it gives the genre a bad name. 

Now for the Draco Dormiens fanfiction, where can I find this? :)
