most exciting potter event this year

here it is. something us dorky potter-ites have been hoping to get since book 7 hit shelves. another glimpse into the world of jk rowling's magical world courtesy of the author herself. authors like rowling, irvine welsh and tom stoppard each wrote a short story on a piece of paper which were sold at auction yesterday. ms jk's piece raised almost $50,000 for charity.

being the big dork that i am, i preordered the special postcard book with all the stories weeks ago, so hopefully i'll have my own copy in my hands any day now. but for those who aren't as big a dork as me but still want to read the short-but-sweet prequel to harry's own story, here it is, in all it's difficult-to-read, hand-written glory.
