Dear JK,
Your books changed my life. Not only have I enjoyed the pleasure of reading such wildly imaginative tales-- I have made so many amazing friends, and experienced so much through the fandom that has been created through your stories. I cannot imagine my life if I had not picked up that little book nearly 8 years ago. Who would I be? Who would I know? What would I spend my time obsessing over? What would I cosplay?
Few things have effected me in the way that Harry Potter has. You have made us all a part of this. We laugh, cry, obsess, love, hate, and feel encouraged by these books. It's hard to think that it's all coming to an end. I knew it would happen, it has just happened all too soon. I am filled with so many emotions. I almost don't want to read Deathly Hollows in hopes that it won't be real.
Did you ever imagine, in your wildest dreams, that you would effect us this way?
We put our trust in you to end this series right- I know that, no matter what happens, you stayed true to your vision. True to the story. No matter what happens, it will be epic, it will be painful, it will be beautiful, it will be heart breaking... I put my trust in you, even if I fear the end.
And you can trust us to keep this fandom alive. We will keep re-reading, and loving, and feeling for the rest of our lives. It's been a long journey, this is a part of us.
Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
Love always,
Tamera
