For the fourth year in a row, creative Harry Potter fandomers will
lead a discussion at Comic Con. This year, with the panel coming
barely a week after the release of the final
Harry Potter film and a
few weeks after the announcement about what
Pottermore actually is, it
marks a time of transition for the fans, and for everyone who's grown
up with and lived with the Harry Potter books, films and magic for one
year, five years, or even a dozen years.
Topics will include
continuing involvement in fannish activities online and in person,
upcoming events, projects and opportunities for activism, thoughts on
the Wizarding World of Harry Potter one year on, fannish creativity on
stage, in writing, in art and in vids and fanfilms, and more!
Panelists include (alphabetically):
Melissa Anelli (The-Leaky-Cauldron.org,
Harry - A History)
Kathryn Mudgway (International Quidditch Assocation)
Joey Richter ("Ron" in
A Very Potter Musical/Sequel;

Andrew Sims (Mugglenet, Hypable.com)
