I agree about Dhm and the books in general, and about being sad it's over. The finality hasn't hit me, but the great thing about fiction is it doesn't have to be final. Not for readers with imaginations.
But I'm glad you're going to keep drawing. There'd better be some Snape/Lily stuff ;-)
I'm still shocked about it all, as soon as I have more time again (busy job at the moment) I'll have to draw some parts of this book, to get over it, or to get back into it.
It's very hard to believe that that's the last book-release party I'll ever go to, that there's no more wondering about the next bit of canon, and of course mourning for the dead, both those that made an impact on Harry and those who were thrown in to be extra names, more dead, to add to the senselessness of war. But at the same time I do feel very satisfied that this book fit with the rest, that I could close it and say, yeah, that was Harry Potter to me.
And now, of course, I can do whatever *I* want to with it, and that's wonderful in its own way, too, to have this forum of fandom to play in even after the rush has gone by.
Knowing how I still love the books I loved at five, fifteen, and twenty-five, I think I'll still love these when I'm forty-five and seventy-five. ♥

Can't believe... Everything.
But you art really is beautiful. And I feel the need to mourn the dead too.

Still, the last book. It'll take some time to get over it, I'd grown used to waiting for the next one. *sigh*

I look forward to all of your art and, yes, the Snape stuff in particular. <3
