It started on a napkin and became a seven novel printed epic. We will never forget the magic that Mrs. Jo Rowling has left on this planet via Harry Potter.
It’s pretty amazing how much Harry Potter has touched the lives of people all around the world. I know it certainly changed my life. I discovered the series around the time when Chamber of Secrets was published, and I was hooked automatically. I grew up with the series, getting book after book and patiently waiting on my doorstep for my preorders of OOTP, HBP, and DH to arrive. I discovered Mugglenet Chat back in fifth grade, something that would change my life and bring into it a whole entirely new world where I would make bonds and friendships to last quite some time. And that’s only the tip of the iceberg.
Not only has HP changed my life, but it has changed many others’ too. It has created a college sport, a genre of music, a charity group based on Dumbledore’s Army, a theme park, movies, plenty of annual conventions, and so much more. But most importantly, it created a legacy that will live on for many more years to come thanks to its dedicated fandom.
So here’s to your birthday JK Rowling and Harry Potter. Have a good one, you both deserve it.
