Ginny character creation
Hi,
I was just wondering if anyone else feels like JKR changed her character design of Ginny Weasley sometime after the 3rd book onwards.
I feel like Ginny being into Quidditch was something she decided some point in the 4th book and originally Ginny was not going to be a sporty girl. But this is just a hunch when I read the books.
I feel like the main character trait we see in early Ginny is that she enjoys writing and writes a lot in her diary and obviously this later ties into the fact she ends up being a sport journalist. But we often see her reading magazines etc and I do think she was more intended for that to be a bigger focus for her character and then at some point JKR decided to make her sporty and popular.
As well as great at hexing which is something that is mostly off page. I kind of like the shy girl who writes in a diary portrayal we had originally. The one who writes silly poems. I also think she later became a character who was gusty and “didn’t cry” but that early Ginny was more emotional.
Does anyone else feel this? Does anyone know any good fics that focus on her bookish side?
