Fred and George Weasley’s troublemaking careers didn’t start the day they reached Hogwarts. In fact, they had been honing their mischief-making talents for years with the help of a feisty little Muggle girl named Annie Jones from Ottery St. Catchpole. Their secret friendship continued even after the twins began leaving for Hogwarts, as the children kept in touch via owl post. It deepened into something more as teenagers, when George and Annie discovered an attraction to each other that they couldn’t resist. Their love struggles to survive one of the most trying times in the magical world – the Second War – and its devastating consequences. A happily-ever-after awaits them… eventually. Rating and warnings for later chapters. In this chapter, seven-year-olds George and Fred make an interesting acquaintance in a bowtruckle-infested oak tree, and a friendship is born.

I'm a bored but happy stay-at-home mom to two little boys (ages 12 and 6). My friends and family think I'm the biggest HP geek, but I know better since I've discovered fanfiction!
I'm very excited to be releasing original works of fiction! My first novel, Old Enough to Know Better, is about a fanfiction writer who falls for an actor who plays her favorite fictional character. It's a fun, steamy, dramatic contemporary romance. Desert Menage Trilogy follows the three main characters as they initiate a loving, lasting triadic bond (including Nine Dates, Tri Me, and Wholly Trinity). The Footmen is a futuristic menage romance set in a grim gynocracy. I also write a paranormal suspense/romance series about a young girl gifted with ESP. Brimstone and Portents are the first two books.
All my books are available in both e-format and paperback on Amazon.If you're interested in learning more about these and other upcoming releases, including reading excerpts, please visit my website and sign up to receive future newsletters.
Reviews for George & Annie: An Unofficial Biography
I was searching for something to read Christmas Eve and this story was presented to me when I asked for a random story. All I can say is "Huzzah"!
This is a wonderful and well-written story about a character that always seemed to be a throw-away in the books. George and Fred, it seemed to me, were presented as one-dimensional characters with almost no redeeming qualities. You have taken JKR's canon and made them real.
Thank you for the enjoyable story. This one is definitely going into my keeper file. ^_^
... i've read what you said about tinkering here and there and to my mind, although it's your story, but since you've enraptured and captured us into your fantasy world, and this is a fanfic, unlike those dragonlance stories where once printed, never changed or improved, i hope you can weave our constructive comments in little by little, because then, it's still a living thing, not dead you see?
firstly, i'm only offering my opinion because u've done such a good job in weaving the closure together such that so many things have come a full circle. naturally i've been gobsmacked by your brilliance so many times in the story, i'm not telling you that i'm superior or whatever. i'm just saying that there are some more circles you can bring in and inter weave into the last two chapters if you like. maybe not just the last chapter otherwise it'll be lopsided...
some suggestions: fred's son was one of the more glaring omissions that i even with my foggy brain could spot. i think he should have some part of the inheritance and maybe a paragraph or so where we know whether he's a squib or not, and maybe a partial happy ever after for him here in this fanfic (even with a spin-off)
the dog could be in heaven with fred or meredith too
i felt the aunties' interactions with the great grand daughter was not really doing much. who were the 4 who had annie's violet eyes?
so only these 3 suggested improvements...i couldn't write a fanfic to save my life. but i can be a backseat driver!
this story kept me company through a bout of flu and cough. so i thank you once again!
Response from jadecadence (Reviewer)
eeks! what happened to the paragraphing? i left proper paragraphs, not this big ugly chunk!
Response from shosier (Author of George & Annie: An Unofficial Biography)
Thanks for all the lovely & sweet reviews... what a fuzzy holiday gift for me! And thanks for the spin-off suggestions, too. I did have several in mind (including one for Ben, a kind of diary or journal of his discoveries from his point of view) and even managed to write one... "Here Be Dragons" is archived here on TPP and is Charlie and Sasha's love story. I don't write much fanfic anymore as I'm busy working on original fiction.

i've to say, original character fanfics aren't my first choice, and i only started reading this because i've exhausted hgss and dmgw etc. fanfic lore,... and this was completed. but this chapter made me tear twice afresh. which is a feat and makes me realise authors writing about my fav pairings don't seem to be able to plumb my emotional depths as well. this is a nice vision of heaven, one that i'm not so sure i agree with,... but it makes for good thinking. thanks for being a writer of stamina and complexity, with enough moments of freshness.
guess nobody japanese reads this site as yet... as they aren't particularly good at English. but don't worry! once they do, they'll certainly leave a review or contact you to give feedback. only, will you still be around to edit the jap translation or reading the responses? :,)
"Did I miss the memo declaring my house a bloody
common room?"

hahaha! and your last two plot twists are marvellous! at least as a fanfic writer you can get away with anything but they are simply brilliant and creatively darn awesomeness! :))
so sweet. i'm sure this would have helped angharad in her insecurity or jealousy about not being a witch and having magical powers, if she hadn't already found peace within herself.
"We found each other just in time to help each other
through our darkest hours" - awwww! maybe that's what i lacked... i didn't open my mouth, just thought it tacitly with my ex-fiance. sometimes, i am not enough encouraging. they are quite a model of positive relationships though!
loved the fact that bill and ron were totally inept goal keepers when it's a child scoring!
what a wonderful plot bunny! i wish sasha and charlie were bi though. polyamory yummy with jane. what happened to her?
well done! nice bit of action there! :)
i've no idea what quote by jkr u used, it went by so swimmingly. i was so engrossed with the flow! thanks once again for your time and commitment in writing!
awesome... not sure if i'd before left a review or read this all without reviewing thus far only because i was transfixed by your brilliant interlocking of fanfic and jkr's original story. i think yours take much more planning to integrate annie's life but thanks so much for writing this. you have a wonderful gift that you are exercising!
you're an awesomely fresh writer. it's definitely a talent you have!
hahaha, didn't know this story would be such a fount of useful information!
thanks for the thought u've put into this chapter.
i'm so happy to be having such a story to sink my teeth into! it's awesome and worthwhile reading it.
I'm so happy that Annie finally gets to see the wizarding world. sniffle :)
Response from shosier (Author of George & Annie: An Unofficial Biography)
I just feel bad it took this long for her to get a chance!
oooooh, they are in *so* much trouble, aren't they? <grin>
Response from shosier (Author of George & Annie: An Unofficial Biography)
Yes indeedy! But George was born for trouble... :)
Awww. I can't even imagine twins, Anne's lucky to have Molly nearby, and endless other Weasleys for help.
Response from shosier (Author of George & Annie: An Unofficial Biography)
Me neither! Better her than me, I say. :)
Poor Angelina, that has to be rough on her. Have we really seen the last of Stephen?
Response from shosier (Author of George & Annie: An Unofficial Biography)
Poor Angelina... and poor George. His own grief is quite complicated.
A mother of seven would definitely know when a bucket was needed. I'm sorry I suspected poor Michael.
Response from shosier (Author of George & Annie: An Unofficial Biography)
Molly certainly knows what she's about.
Wow, I'm glad Meridith remembered Anne's stories. They should fess up and move Anne into the Burrow. I'm getting concerned.
Response from shosier (Author of George & Annie: An Unofficial Biography)
For Annie's sake, I needed her to come clean to Meredith, such as it was. And anyone would be concerned!
Hmmm, still suspicious of that dog. And stephen. I'm just the suspicious sort.
Response from shosier (Author of George & Annie: An Unofficial Biography)
Oh, that Stephen! ;)
Appariton lessons with fred and george, what fun :)
Response from shosier (Author of George & Annie: An Unofficial Biography)
Thanks! Apparition = fun... ghoul = not fun, at least for Annie. :)
awwwwww, sniffle :)
Response from shosier (Author of George & Annie: An Unofficial Biography)
I know! It was hard to write, believe me.
