Hi there. I've put together a new Harry Potter reference site,
although I hope this is quite a different idea to the norm. The site
is called Broomsticks, Brollies & Wizards - the Roots of Harry
Potter.
It concerns itself with the magical culture and heritage of the UK
that led to the birth of HP. Therefore I have referenced literary
influences from the obvious (LOTR, Worst Witch et al) to the more
obscure (Tom's Midnight Garden etc.), influences from legend &
folkore
(Merlin, Vampires, Werewolves etc. etc.), and also famous UK
magicians
and wizards from D.D. Home to Paul Daniels! I've also included small
pieces on British slang, sport, weather etc.
However this is a continual work in progress and I would be more than
happy to receive suggestions, ideas, etc. for new articles and
pieces.
Anyway, drop by and see what you think. The URL is
www.thewizardwebsite.co.uk
