20 years of Harry Potter!

[blamebrampton]

Back in 1997, Bloomsbury took a punt on a book they thought might do rather well.

I'm so tremendously thrilled they did!

Thank you, Jo, thank you, Harry, thank you fandom. SO much joy from one good publishing decision!

I know this is late - I was on holiday with my son over in Britain (what a way to celebrate 20 years, right!). It's amazing that one little book and one decision by a company, had such a huge effect on so many lives. I've met so many wonderful people in fandom that I never would have met otherwise. *hugs*

Thanks so much, Karin! What a lovely birthday wish! Hugs back! Mr B and I are both doing well, and the cats are also in fine fettle. We have inherited a flock of sulphur crested cockatoos that demand sunflower seeds and I am tempted to include them in the family group, but I suspect that we are more hostages there :-)
