Hi all, very happy to have found this group--I felt so alone! Its 
like those adults confessing they like Frosted Flakes on the 
commericals: "I know their is a tiger on the box, but I love the 
taste" LOL

Anywho, if you haven't had chance to read ON WRITING by Stephen King, 
he writes the following advice:

"Don't use the passive voice! Don't be a muggle!"

He also goes on to recommend the HP series for anyone looking to 
become a writer. 

Just thought that was kind of neat :) Since JKR and King are two of 
my favorite authors--watching my literary worlds collide like that!
