Pottermania

I'm glad that radio stations are giving away copies of a book, that there will be midnight sales for a book, that people are waiting anxiously for a book to come out, that people are trying to get copies of the book before everyone else ... even if that book is the next Harry Potter tale.

I just hope that all of this Pottermania leads to people reading more books. Don't misunderstand me, I think the Potter books are great. I just wouldn't want people to stop there and have those be the only books they ever read with such enthusiasm.

I am OBSESSED with Potter... I'm even thinking about writing my graduate thesis on it, if I don't take the "easy" way out and just finish my novel and hand it in...

JK Rowling makes me feel worthless as I writer... and I love her for it.

If anything, I think it is making more kids want to read, and MOST of the people I know who are Potter addicts are not just reading these books, but I hope that's the majority and not the minority...
