albusthewhite:

Also, GrandPre has said that she uses herself as a model for posing the characters in her 
art.  If she is right-handed, she would be seeing a left-hander in the mirror.  But as a lefty, 
I like to think that this is the *real* Harry Potter -- what, after all, does Jo know?  Harry's 
special in so very many ways -- why is he then just another righty when he could be 
something truly unique?
