Hey, I really like the idea of a forum about Drarry I'm not sure if I should create a new thread to introduce myself or not. I'll post that here and if needed I'll made a thread instead. So, I'm kind of bad at talking about myself, but here I go. I'm Maxxie, 22 years old and French but I live in Scotland. I've been a fan of HP since I'm a kid but I recently properly joined the fandom actively when I re-read the books a few months ago. I made a few fanarts and I'm currently trying to write an angsty fanfic, this might take me a while. I hope other people will join

Hi, I've never used a forum before so here goes.. I'm also kind of rubbish at describing myself but, I'm Aby, I'm 19 years old. I'm French and I live in the United Kingdom. I have been a fan of Harry Potter since I was a child and I started to properly join the fandom when I first joined Tumblr in 2009. I like making drarry graphics and drawing, also not to forget reading drarry fanfiction..

Maxxie you are doing the right thing don't worry I'll introduce myself too: Hi! My name is Lise, I'm 21 and I live in Belgium. I kinda got into HP during my teens but at the time I was only interested in the films. I read the series back in 2011 and that was when I joined tumblr and learned about shipping that makes me kind of a "new" fan I guess. I don't really remember when I started shipping drarry, it was during the time I read the books though They are my only OTP (I ship other couples, but drarry is the only ship I read fics of and things) Being kinda alone and not knowing anyone in the drarry world I started "thedrarryfiles" and now this forum and I'm very excited about it I also hope tons of people will join, but I think we'll have to be a bit patient Thank you for joining already and feel free to start any topic you want!

Hi everyone! I'm Anneliese, I'm 22 and I live in New Zealand. I can't remember a time before my love of Harry Potter. I've always moved around with different ships and I'm a self confessed multi-shipper. Though my ultimate OTP is Wolfstar, I do have a huge love for Drarry.
A few months ago I had a story idea for a Muggle AU in which Draco and Harry are strangers who accidentally text each other (except it turns out they're old high school enemies) but in the end that changed a lot and I started the blog drarrytexts. I've been off and on over there though I do try and keep going with it.

Hello everyone ! It's my turn. So I'm Tina, I'm 19 (almost 20, well in few months) and I'm French and live in France. I've always loved Harry Potter, since I saw the first movie when I was like 7. But I really got into the fandom maybe a year ago. It's the moment when my obsession came x) I've started everything upside down because I first saw the movies and just read the books not so long ago (best decision of my life !) Drarry is one of my OTP (well this couple is like in the first place xD). I started shipping them when I got really onto the fandom. I remember the first time I read Drarry, I was really young and it was shock, really xD
Anyway, I just love the idea of a Drarry forum, because I have that urge to talk about Drarry with Drarry shippers, really !
xx

Hey y'all. Looks like I'm the only North American here lol, from Canada (the true north strong and free <3) and Chinese. Also the youngest, 17, and I'm also horrible at introducing myself... I've been a (casual) Harry Potter fan all my life, but discovered the online HP fandom back in grade 7. That turned me into a hardcore potterfan and a reader of fanfiction (all ratings ). Drarry is my #1 OTP, but recently-ish I've become attached to a lot of other fandoms. I started my drarry blog 2 years ago, fuckyeah-drarry, to keep track of what I read. I try to keep it semi-active with some fic recs and fanart postings I find it harder to read more drarry since a lot of fics are hosted on lj and don't work well with my blackberry, which is where I read most of my fanfics (ao3 has the best mobile layout imo) Oh! And you can call me Ann. (I need more Potter back in my life)

Hello! So, I'm Athena. But my Tumblr url is DrarryBerry so I use that as my nickname on most things. I'm from Minnesota, but I want to live in England someday. I'm fifteen, I'll be sixteen in may. Thanks to my lovely mother I've been a die-hard HP fan all my life. I didn't start reading fanfiction until I discovered the website called Quotev. Then I got into Tumblr and realised my love for writing Drarry fanfictions. Drarry is my main OTP, but I've recently discovered Bellamione fanfiction and I can tell I will like that too. My favourite things to do are writing and reading. 900 of the pictures on my iPod are Drarry-Related. I'm a happy Slytherin and I need more Drarry friends.

Hi I'm Molly I'm 18 and from Canada. (you aren't the only one now fydrarry) I like to think that I'm a Slytherin. I wasn't allowed to read Harry Potter when I was younger but my mom finally let me read it at 16 and I've been obsessed ever since. One day I came across a fanfic called Checkmate and I fell in love with Drarry. I'm always reading and looking for more fanfiction now. Drarry is definitely my OTP I just started my Harry Potter blog a few months ago because my followers on my personal were tired of only seeing HP posts I haven't had any one to talk to about Draco and Harry, so I'm super excited about this forum

I live in New York, in the country, which I love <3 (I can't stand big cities). I would like to travel eventually. My hp tumblr is malfoyspotter. I love to write. I currently have one wip drarry fic posted, called 'All in the Banter'. My ff/devart username is xxwrittensinsxx and my ao3 username is writtensins.

Hiya, I'm Shirley! I live in the US. I read HP way back as the books were released, so it's honestly been awhile since I've read the books. Hopefully I'll get to reread them soon (I have my eye on that anniversary set, it's so pretty!!). According to my friends I talk about drarry like 90% of the time so I'm really glad there's a forum now! I just draw drarry in my spare time tbh (tumblr url is shirleh so you might've seen my art, idk) but I hope to draw more this year and talk to more people who like drarry, of course.

Hey! My name is Alysia, pronounced like my username haha. I live in Seattle, Washington and have been a Harry Potter fan for nearly as long as I can remember. I remember waiting for my Hogwarts letter shortly after I turned 11, so I must have been 10 or 11 when I started reading. I'm 24 now. I got into the HP fandom around 2003 (10 years ago? Holy shit.) and got into drarry pretty soon after, if not immediately after I discovered fandom. I was young and it was so long ago it's hard to remember at this point. At that point most of the fandom was on Livejournal, and after Livejournal died out I never got back into the fandom besides reading fic I found on my own. I so glad to have resdiscovered a group of people who love Harry Potter and drarry just as much as I do Drarry is my OTP and pretty much what I read exclusively, but I also have a huge soft spot for wolfstar.

I'm Penny, 26. I grew up with Harry, and I grew up in the Drarry and Wolfstar fandoms. I have been an extremely prolific Drarry writer in the past; however, it was mostly garbage. I still write, but rarely is my work particularly cheerful. I recently participated in several fests, as evidenced by my AO3.
I'm also a fanartist, though right now, I'm stuck in the Marauder era. My current project is an estimated 300-500k Marauder-era Wolfstar and Jily multimedia fic with fanart, playlists, and stories.
I'm an avid roleplayer (mostly Draco and Sirius Black in the HP fandom). I also play World of Warcraft.
Oh, I'm an engineer IRL. Yay.
