| | |  J.K. Rowling wins Author of the Year award
A couple months ago we told you that J.K. Rowling had been nominated for Author of the Year at the National Children's Choice Book awards. Jo has now been announced as the winner last night in New York City for her work on Deathly Hallows. Over 55,000 votes were cast to decide the winners at Book Week Online. The event was hosted by the Children's Book Council in association with the CBC Foundation.

Congratulations to JK! Yay!
With all the prizes and all she's won due to Harry Potter, I wonder how much pression is she going to be under for her new stories to be just as successfull. I'm thinking a lot!

__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,
but you know what? It was real. It did happen.
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. | |
