Happy (belated) Birthday, Harry Potter

[subversa]

I am a day late, Harry, and I apologize. I know I tend to overlook you, or to use you as a supporting character in your own 'verse, and for this I apologize. Without you, I never would have been entranced by your world or derived so many hours of pleasure from reading of your life and your adventures. I never would have found out that I have a passion for writing. I never would have found a wonderful, supportive community of friends who, by the way, all love you, too.

Happy thirtieth birthday, Harry. I am very glad you lived to enjoy it.

(And happy birthday to your creator,too!)
