| | |  ‘GOF’ sketch up for bid
HP book illustrator Mary GrandPré donated a pencil sketch of Harry from Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire to a cancer fundraiser for The Wellness Community.
GrandPré noted that the sketch is one of over 100 that she has created for the HP book series over the years. Quote:
Let's see, there were six books, so far, and there's going to be a seventh.
There were special-edition covers, maybe eight of those, and all the interior work. Add up all the chapters ... I'd say, easily past 100 illustrations.
The sketch is worth $7,000. You can view it here in our gallery. | |

Mary GrandPre is one lucky woman. She gets to make the HP illustrations for the US edition. And that qualifies as lucky under my eye.  | |

they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |
