Andy: “People always make the mistake of thinking of who they are now is who they’ll be forever. Look at J.K. Rowling. She was poor—struggling. Then she came up with Harry Potter and she’s a billionaire.”
Bobby: “Please don’t make me write books about child wizards… I’m not going to be very good at it.”

I just want to wish Harry Potter and JK Rowling a very happy birthday.
I AM-ep. 02
Hey, everyone. Here’s the next webisode of my “I AM project.” I discuss books, John Green’s Paper Towns, music, things that make me weird, viewers’ responses, and my recent experience with a mean ol’ bully. “As we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.”
I was trying to recreate a scene from Harry Potter, but Margo didn’t understand Madam Hooch’s instructions…
From time to time, I think about the conclusion of the Harry Potter series and I get teary-eyed.
The stories we love best do live in us forever. So whether you come back by page or by the big screen, Hogwarts will always be there to welcome you home.
FUN FACT: In my novel, I paid homage to J.K. Rowling, J.D. Salinger, Emily Dickinson, Robert Frost, Edgar Allan Poe, William Shakespeare, Stephen King, Fleetwood Mac, Katy Perry, and Sex & the City.
I’m going to bed before either of you come up with another clever idea to get us killed…or worse, expelled.
Yes! I just registered for Pottermore. :D
