I've been ...Oh, Lisa, a kindred spirit indeed!<br /><br />I've been a Potterfile since book 4. Can't get over the things they leave out of the films, but do understand they are a totally seperate animal. <br /><br />I am such a Potterhead that I have crafted 2 Christmas Trees for auction of Harry & his world. The first one had a flying Nimbus 2000 suspended over 2 flaming plinths, the second full of memory bottles, mini partoni & a 23 foot dragon I handstitched around the base. <br /><br />No explaination needed. A Potterfile has VERY good taste in reading material! <br /><br />I too, would have jumped up & yelled 'snitch!'<br /><br />And no idea how many times I have reread the series - but recently aquired a back up set for when my first falls apart!<br /><br />Thank you!<br />Karentia/Karen KingAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4741838949572545400.post-58395012729189473532012-01-27T22:33:34.825-05:002012-01-27T22:33:34.825-05:00I have lost count as a 37 year old as to how many ...I have lost count as a 37 year old as to how many times I have now re-read Potter, and Potter Maratons are a monthy occurance.<br /><br />There is a precious magic to keeping young at heart, and Potter is a perfect place to start. <br /><br />I know you will understand this, when I hear the words "I Love you" It is an automatic responce now to say "Always". <br /><br />thank you for sharing your Potter Pride, may it be spread far and wide. :)<br />Chrystal Pax.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4741838949572545400.post-672973659155015922012-01-20T14:07:09.297-05:002012-01-20T14:07:09.297-05:00Jessica, my Patronis would be a cat, because every...Jessica, my Patronis would be a cat, because every time I look at my cat, he looks so content!

Tru...Thank you for sharing this story with me Lisa! Trust me, being a middle-aged man in a world full of oblivious Muggles, I know exactly what you are saying. But I am not the quiet, sit in the corner and hide my obsession type at all. In fact, every single person that spends more than 2 minutes of time with me, knows that I am this 'Potter'-crazed know-it-all fan, and I'm proud to be that.<br /><br />People I work with think I'm nuts (although, there are several people here that I convinced to read the story and they would talk to me everyday about what was going on and by the end of their reading...they understood the magic of JK Rowling)!<br /><br />Yes, I am one of the lucky few that gets to put my 'Potter' obsession online every day for thousands of people to read, I get to go to events and meet other obsessed fans, and speak to the cast that brought the series to life, but the best part of it all...I get to interact in not so dramatic ways with other 'like-minded' individuals...like you!<br /><br />Thanks for sharing your story Lisa, and tell Jessica I said she rocks!<br /><br />Keith Hawk (age 45)<br />MuggleNetKeith Hawk (MuggleNet)http://www.mugglenet.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4741838949572545400.post-9710403439930591652012-01-20T09:00:42.184-05:002012-01-20T09:00:42.184-05:00Every time I look at my Golden Snitch now I think ...Every time I look at my Golden Snitch now I think of you!! I was very nervous about sharing that tidbit of information about myself in a room full of my professional peers. I did not think anyone was going to know what the heck a "golden snitch" was but you saved the day. By the way, what would your Patronis be?Jessica Quinlanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07017574389996416953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4741838949572545400.post-86883018922059914062012-01-19T16:35:06.349-05:002012-01-19T16:35:06.349-05:00I would love to read it Brigitte!I would love to read it Brigitte!Lisa Weinsteinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4741838949572545400.post-17421557170843615442012-01-19T14:48:53.008-05:002012-01-19T14:48:53.008-05:00me too with Mrs Rowling please!!!
ok, i'm not ...me too with Mrs Rowling please!!!<br />ok, i'm not a child, but i love in a special way the eternal child by my side.is what often keeps me going in life. and Harry and all his friends and his enemies are the best representation of that side of me so I am proud to be an Harry Potter's fan. and I'm not ashamed to admit. every time I reread a book I discover a new detail, a new gradient and that makes me happy. and if you really want to know I am a "devouring" of fanfiction: I love to stay attached to that world and fanfiction show me aspects that I had not seen, or new aspects that I would never have imagined.<br />ok, now I'll stop. I have a bad custom of talking too much :)<br />Brigitte i would like to read what you had wrotesimona giudicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12986539484820383511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4741838949572545400.post-82319170800568664902012-01-19T13:30:04.134-05:002012-01-19T13:30:04.134-05:00Oh, when you going to meet JK Rowling, I will come...Oh, when you going to meet JK Rowling, I will come with you! I have so many question! ;)<br /><br />Thank you so much for this words! I feel the same way. Sometimes, I think I am to old for a children book, than I think it´s not "only" a children book - it´s much more! <br />In my blog, there is also a story about Harry and me, but in German. Maybe, I try to translate it - that you can also read it ;)being Brigittehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15069509348109163266noreply@blogger.com
