Harry Potter Fan Club

Me and my friend Rayna made a Harry Potter fan club. Our first metting is on the 30th. What we are doing is Getting the club info, getting sorted, quidditch, then Honeydukes. In the club, each member has a HP 'nickname', but the house that they are sorted into does not have to be same house as thcharacter. Everyone has there top choice of house, and 4 people are in the club total, but we didn't make any Slytherin's. For example i'm in Hufflepuff (my fav) and my character is Ginny Weasley (also my fav). Everyone has a character they like. I'll explain each activity.

1. Info: We explain the rules.

2. Sorting: We use a witch hat and sort people.

3. Qudditch: We use Homemade brooms (get a broomlike stick, (we used bamboo) and attach sticks on the end with strings, we only did that to me and Rayna's because there is hardly and sticks in the backyard) I'll post a picture of the brooms later. With hula hoops as goal-posts, we play with a ball (its quite hard with only 2 people per team).

4. Honeydukes: We take a trip to Honeydukes with acid pops and choco-frogs.

If you want a more clear description, please comment and say so.

Harry and the Potter's - "We sing songs about Books!"

It all started when I got a T-shirt from a graphic novel festival (in my post before) and it said 'Harry and the Potter's' on the front. As a Harry Potter fan, i bought it, thinking 'Harry and the Potter's' was just a Harry Potter parody made up by the shirt artist. Then, the artist of the shirt (he was the one selling it, he is Dave Roman) said "do you know the band Harry and the Potter's?" I said no. He (and Raina Telgemeir) told me it was singers singing in Harry's prospective. I thought "cool" and listened to a song on-line. They were good.

 Here is there song for my favourite one: (sorry, the actual video wasn't working when I tried to put it on the post, so I only have a link.)

There is also another band called Draco and the Malfoy's, which is in the prospective of Malfoy, and a parody of Harry and the Potter's. Me and my friend Rayna both are OBSESSED with Harry Potter, and when I showed her this song, and we both loved it. We had to do a music project on a song for school, and we both chose this song! Please listen to HATP (Harry and the Potters') songs! Dave Roman is quite a fan of Harry and the Potter's, so here is the link to his artwork for it: http://yaytime.com/gallery/wizard-rock/   and he also has Ron Weasley comics (i know, it hardly has to do with Harry and the Potter's at all, but we were talking about Dave Roman): http://yaytime.com/webcomics/fan-comics/ronald-weasley-fanzine/

Graphic Novels @ Tcaf!

I went to the TCAF comic fest! I saw a Babymouse/squish, amulet and bone presentations made by the authors! I got my books signed, too.  I also got lots more (I'll also post pics of those). I met Raina Telgemeier (author of smile) and lots more people! I bought a harry potter t-shirt, made after a band called Harry and the Potter's! Here is the design from the shirt:

Here are the autograph pics:

And i watched a presentation about these:

Amulet Autograph

Babymouse Autograph

Bone Autograph

FREE STUFF!!!!!!!!!    At the Owl-kids section, they gave lots of comic book free stuff... here are the pics:

Character Bag

Headband

There was more, but i didn't take it all.

I also bought a copy of 'Chi's sweet home' (not autographed, but the author of it was at the convention.)

I also got a free poster that was not from the owl kids:

It's a cute book, but VERY different from amulet or bone. I would recommend it for young girls.

I would also recommend amulet, bone, babymouse, Raina's Telgemeier's comics, and Dave Roman's comics from the comic fest.
