According to TLC, Time has put JKR on the short list of candidates for its Person of the Year.  They're running a poll and readers can vote. So what are you waiting for? Go vote, already!

The power of fandom. When TLC posted this, JKR was behind Al Gore, and Obama ...now she's leading by almost EIGHT THOUSAND VOTES!!  :chicken:

Meh, I only want her to win because the wank we'd see in certain sections of the 'fandom' would be truly awesome. I think you know which sections I'm talking about. I've seen you over there debating. Cheesy

Alas, she did not win, but the article that can be found here: http://www.time.com/time/specials/2007/personoftheyear/article/0,28804,1690753_1695388_1695436,00.html and the information in the 10 Questions about HP that follows just makes me smile. Yes, I'm sick, I'm a softie, I shouldn't be posting, I should go back to bed and all...it made me smile.

And, Celestine, this part made me think of you:  Tongue

Who does Draco Malfoy marry?
Astoria Greengrass, younger sister of the Greengrass family. We meet Daphne Greengrass, part of Pansy Parkinson's Slytherin posse, in Book V when Hermione takes her O.W.L.s. Neville marries Hannah Abbott, who becomes the owner of The Leaky Cauldron. "I do have it all worked out in my mind because I couldn't stop myself doing that."
