Two quick items to bring to your attention:
- John blogs about a new JKR interview. Looks like a lot of great stuff here, and more on her religious views. Blogengamot analysis to come soon.
- HP Progs episode 68 is up. I sent in a short audio clip about rule-breaking in the HP series. You should listen to the whole episode, of course, but my part starts around minute 21 and is only about 2 minutes long (with a few minutes’ commentary by Greg and Penny afterwards). Hog’s Head PubCast Episode #44 to come Thursday.

I lifted this quote from HogPro:
“Q: There’s this dialogue between Harry and Professor Dumbledore: “Is this real? Or has this been happening inside my head?”
A: And Dumbledore says: “Of course it is happening inside your head, but why on earth would that mean that is not real?” That dialogue is the key; I’ve waited seventeen years to use those lines. Yes, that’s right. All this time I’ve worked to be able to write those two phrases; writing Harry entering the forest and Harry having that dialog.”
To which I say: they were well worth the wait, Domina.
They were well worth the wait.
And I also thought how very much they reflected Lewis’s influence on JKR. Dumbledore’s response to Harry is almost like something Professor Kirke would’ve said to the Penvensie children in Lion, Witch, & Wardrobe.
