Catherine -- I put you down for Hagrid based on what you said on the
MEG list, but wasn't sure if you wanted Ginny as well.  Ginny is
covered in Simon's "Weasley Family" FAQ, but could stand a FAQ of her
own (Simon's section on Ginny could be expanded as we've had lots of
Ginny discussions since he did this).

If you're interested in *maintaining* any of the following (all mine
that I don't want to trouble with maintaining), please speak up:

Hogwarts
Mysteries & Inconsistencies
Fanfiction
Religion (I believe Mike Gray wants to maintain that one ... confirm?)
J.K. Rowling

I'll continue to try & maintain Hermione, Romance Pairings, Government
& Universal Appeal (which needs a better title btw).  :--)

Thanks,

Penny
