After the End: Harry Potter Fandom in 2010
May. 2nd, 2010 11:09 amThis was originally an entirely different post, but I got off topic and onto another one: Harry Potter fandom three years after DH.
It's interesting to see who left, who stayed, who came back, and who joined - in terms of people and communities/websites alike - after the final book.
Around HBP and definitely by the time DH had been on shelves for a few months, websites and communities (Livejournal and otherwise) w ere much quieter, if not down completely.
But I don't think that means Harry Potter fandom has died. Quite the opposite. Under the cut, I have explored how Harry Potter fandom has changed over the years.
( We didn't start the fandom... )
