Hey guys! I just thought I would let everyone (well mostly other website owners) know that my personal site, Sworn Obsessions, is having a half off layouts sale until August 1st! So the layouts are anywhere from $3 – $6!!! Some might even be free if I like the subject of the layout enough. I also make other graphics too, desktop wallpapers, avatars, signatures and more. =)

So get on over there and ORDER ORDER ORDER! =D

And also don’t forget about the Snape Friend/Foe Bookmarks for $4.25 (they ship outside the US too)!

Haha I am so excited guys! Guess what, we had 10,282 hits today (well its yesterday now)!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thats more than we get most MONTHS.  (very sad when I think about it)

And so far this month we have 12,658 hits! Only 2 months out of the sites history have more hits than this month and we are only 9 days into it! July 2007, and August 2007 with 13,711 and 18,970 respectivly.

Hopefully this keeps up and we get lots of return visitors from all the new people that came from Mugglenet and Leaky and the other sites! =D This site needs to become just like them!

And look at this, at one point today there were 111 people online! There were probably more at other times but this was the highest I saw it at!

Matthew Lewis and Devon Murray (Seamus Finnigan) will be attending this year’s Dragon*Con once again!

The event will take place Friday, August 29 to Monday, September 1, 2008 at four different hotels in Atlanta, Georgia: the Atlanta Hilton, the Hyatt Regency Atlanta, the Marriott Marquis Atlanta, and the Marriott Marquis Atlanta

Thanks Lewis Lovers and  SS!

Casting Call Pro has now updated Lord Johnpaul Castrianni’s CV page. It shows that he will be Death Eater Yaxley in the HBP.

BH: Have you already shot scenes of Half-Blood Prince? In which scenes are you present?

LJC: My scenes were filmed several months ago and I finished in February (2008). I was in the scenes regarding Alan Rickman, Dan, Michael (Dumbledore) Tom (Malfoy) and several other cast who I believe have not been officially published by Warner Bros yet, so unfortunately I cannot comment on that yet.

Thanks SS!

Okay folks, I finished all the articles. I am not going to type up the four on Dan, Emma and Rupert and the one on the Animal people since those aren’t really about Half-Blood Prince or Deathly Hallows. And there is also a HBP news round up thing, but I’m not going to do that one either, I’ve decided, ha ha.

• Producing The Half-Blood Prince
• Dressing the Hogwarts Student Body
• Setting His Designs on The Half-Blood Prince
• Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

PLEASE do not copy and paste these on to your site, they took me forever to do. You can take little snippets and then post a link to the full thing on here.
UPDATE: ALL DONE!

The UK edition of Deathly Hallows will be released in paperback on Thursday. You can pre-order it HERE £5.39.  (I preoredered mine already ;] ) There is still no release date for the U.S. paperback edition, I will update that when we find out.

Bloomsbury has also updated their website.  They have unlocked the #7 compartment on the Hogwarts Express on their Swot up on Potter page.

Thanks SS!
