Last Saturday, the Harry Potter fans from all over the United States came together in Maine and on the internet try to persuade the voters in Maine to vote against the Propostition 1.
While we waited to call there was a wizard rock concert going on as well. Featuring Draco and the Malfoys and Harry and the Potters.
The Wrock 4 Equality was an amazing thing to be apart of by me having called Maine a bunch of times. Being apart of the whole experience gave a great adrenaline rush and it was completely amazing.

Hey J.K. Rowling fans. This is a fandom update on how the nerds connect with Harry Potter.
This one video blogger Hank Green from the Vlogbrothers who does a video blog with his brother John Green wrote a song about how badly he wanted the last book of Harry Potter. This project is called, Brotherhood 2.0 is a year-long project in which brothers Hank and John Green have abandoned textual communication in favor of daily videoblogs. (Hank does a song every Wednesday!)
Here is the video in which Hank sings about Harry Potter called Accio Deathly Hallows:
J.K. Rowling has contributed to a celebrity hand display which will help raise funds for Tilly Lockey, a young girl who needs prosthetic limbs that will need replacing every year until she is 18. The pictures and casts will go on display at Newcastle’sLife centre for one day and then will be put up for auction at an event on September 5th. The exhibit is free of charge.
Sarah Lockey said: “We have all of these wonderful quirky and unique drawings and hand casts created by celebrities to help us raise funds for Tilly. These will be auctioned at a dinner in September but we wanted to share them with as many people as possible before they become part of someone’s private collection.”
Thanks SS!

I found this amazingly funny Half-Blood Prince spoof on the web that I wanted to share with you all. Isn’t it soooo laugh out loud funny?
Yesterday, on on the College Jeopardy Championships there was a question who’s answer many of you should know.

Answer: J.K. Rowling
Thanks Meg!
I added three pictures from my meeting with Jo on October 19, 2007. One is with the crew from Leaky and the rest are with Jo.
This is exciting news! After way over a year (going on two), Jo has updated her official site. It is only some very slight changes, but maybe this means more updates are in store! The last time Jo updated her site was for the release of ‘Beetle and the Bard’. So, this is a good sign that there is more to come…
The changes are the following: the title of Jo’s diary has been changed to “Everything you might want to Know,” along with new books in the link section, plus a few changes of the links.
We will keep you posted on all changes, small or big, on JKR.com! Let’s all keep our fingers cross for bigger changes!
Thanks to The Leaky Cauldron for the tip!
In a recent article in The Aberdeen Press and Journal, a Scottish bookshop is auctioning a rare piece of Harry Potter memorabilia. A Harry Potter bookmark signed by J.K. Rowling (to a fan) has been donated to the Blythswood Care Bookshop and will be auctioned off to benefit the Christian charity store. Those interested must submit their bids by mail, since no online auction has been set up. Contact infomation for the Blythswood Care Bookshop is on there website. Good luck to all!
Thanks Snitch Seeker!
