Very good sermon. You may also have mentioned most of the famous art was not famous until after the artist dies. Have a great week!

That’s what is true about life as well – we are all hokie at times!

Comment on Things I Wish I’d Written #2: Harry Potter by Bryn Snyder

Personally, I didn’t care much for Harry and I couldn’t stand Ron. Since Hermoine wound up doing most of the leg work and was always the most practical and “together” character, the series might as well have been about her!

But that’s not why I loved Harry Potter. I loved it for Hogwarts. Like you’re saying Bill, it was just an environment or world that really seemed alive and awesome. What I wouldn’t give to have gone there! I enjoyed reading about the goings on in and around the school so much I couldn’t put the books down until I had finished each one. It helped that when I started reading the books I was the same age as Harry!

I didn’t enjoy the Deathly Hallows as much for that reason. Hogwarts WAS, in my mind, the Harry Potter universe. Once the series left its confines, I lost interest. Deathly Hallows read as a nail-biting deconstruction of that universe; it was good in its own way, but I didn’t feel it had the “magic” of the previous entries.

What I love so much about Harry Potter is much of what I love about Tolkien. There is a wonderful story and deeply compelling characters, but there is a world that is so much bigger than all of it, a world I want to live in and world I would want to defend alongside its greatest heroes. What a towering work of imagination this is. Rowling deserves all of the praise she has received for it.

Also, the money.

Comment on Things I Wish I’d Written #3: The Lord of the Rings by Bill Coffin

Yes, yes, a thousand times, yes. I re-read this book periodically, and it is one of the few that I enjoy more every time I come back to it. Knowing it was written as a single book actually improves my reading experience; I now prefer to read it as a single-volume omnibus. Strangely, for as much as I adore this book, I have never read the appendices. I think by the time I get to the end, I am so jacked up by the story that if I get any more, I’ll accidentally slip into some other harmonic frequency and disappear.

SO cannot wait to see what #2 and #1 are.

Whew. I just read that portion of the script and now I’ve got something stuck in my eye. Wonderfully done. And yet another wonderful entry. Thanks, Scott.
