The Harry Potter Hookup Map needs your help!

HPHM is a scholarly project and fanfiction resource that is trying to investigate where queer intimacy happens in the world of Harry Potter. We’re reading Drarry and WolfStar fics and mapping each intimate or sexual encounter, trying to see if certain places within the world J.K. Rowling built are more open to queer sex than others. Does the Room of Requirement make the best hookup spot? Or is the Shrieking Shack more secluded? Or maybe its best to just make out in front of everyone in the Great Hall?

Our goal is to better understand how fanfiction writers make space for queer relationships, how they (or maybe I should say we!) interact with the canon, generate conventions, and what types of spaces in the wizarding world are available for queer sex. This will help us theorize about the way fanfiction writers read, form communities, and actively resist the largely heterosexual work of the canon. At the same time, the completed map will serve as a resource for fic-finding!

YOU CAN HELP! We desperately need readers to help with the huge volume of stories we want to catalog. It is incredibly easy. You’re reading fanfiction already, right? Why not fill out a quick form about your story and help the pursuit of knowledge! You’ll find the Google Form HERE (https://goo.gl/forms/63bsgMyOhvYcAUHJ3). Note that at the moment we’re looking for Harry/Draco and Sirius/Remus stories, but we will be expanding that list as the project goes on!

Are you a programming or computer wiz who can help two graduate students? We’re looking to make the map more self-sustaining and could use your help automating certain data processes as we go forward. If you’re an undergrad or graduate student we’re also more than happy to help speak with your department and try to get you class credit for your help! Email Eli (dunnej@usc.edu) or Elle (everhare@bc.edu), we’d LOVE to hear from you.

Well, friends, my laptop finally gave up. Nearly burnt into a sizzle. While I own a decent workstation PC, I’ll still need something small and cozy for writing and Netflix binges. I’m not hoping to repair it, but I want to recover data, which isn’t cheap. Hundreds upon hundreds of pages of writing, gigabytes of drawings, drunken vacation photos - well, I didn’t do a backup in a while.

If you’d like to work with me, send me a message! 

I’m super chill about most things, but I’d rather not draw morally questionable stuff, complex machinery/robots and furries/anthro.

I accept payments using PayPal only - I’ll give you my e-mail via tumblr convo or e-mail after our first negotiation.

Please reblog and boost (and check out giveaway info at the bottom of this post)

Thank you!
