The Story So Far

CassieClaire gains internet fame and notoriety for her LOTR parody Very Secret Diary fics. She becomes well known in not only the LOTR fandom but also the Harry Potter Fandom for her Draco Trilogy fics.

Her "fame" as well as her writing skills lead to a huge backlash in popular opinion and Cassie is embroiled in many a LiveJournal flamewar. These are supplemented with an extremely tumultuous personal life, in which the Harry Potter Fandom BNFs jockied for the position of her best friend.

This is demonstrated best by the frequent appearances of Ivyblossom and Heidi defending Cassie on every corner of the net.

Many of those involved played in the popular RPG nocturne_alley. A longstanding rumour held it that Cassie herself played Draco; however, that proved to be false. (anti-fw nocturne_alley wank)

After a fall from grace, bookshop hits back with the Cassandra Claire Is Everywhere Law and The Very Secret Diary Of Aja.
