Is someone who has never read any of the Harry Potter books and is not a fan of the movies likely to appreciate this work? I'm somewhat curious to read it but suspect I'd have trouble following the references.
I probably need to write up a "For those who have never seen the books" summary page of years 1-7, containing all the information that will be needed mixed with enough other information that it looks like a summary instead of "here is exactly and only what you will need to know".
That sounds helpful, even to those who've read the books but many of them long ago. Just don't let it stop you from writing chapters.
ETA: Outsource?
Outsource would be desirable.
Wikipedia probably has some decent plot summaries of the novels.
