Deathly Hallows Release Party!

[wordplay]

ellen_fremedon and I have been talking for a while about putting together a large DC "Deathly Hallows" book release party, and it's time to start properly planning that. This will be a welcome-all-comers kind of thing, meant to bring all parts of the local Potter fandom together to celebrate the release of the last book.

So! By 'party' we really mean 'drinks!' and the idea is to find somewhere to get together earlier in the evening and then finish up with the book portion of the evening at Politics and Prose. In order to begin the planning, we ask you to use this post to do two things:

(1) Have an idea of where we should have drinks that's close to P&P? Leave it here.

(2) And if you think you'll want to join us, let me know here. You're not committing to anything too firmly; we just need to begin to get some sense of numbers before we can move forward.

Have something else to add? Please do so! Have any brilliant ideas? Leave them!



Yay Harry!

Well duh.

I'd probably fly in late Thursday night (as per usual) and out Sunday afternoon. I vote for drinks, book, brunch and then go home, with some yummy canon discussion in there a la HBP. Wherever we choose to do that is fine by me. The more light, fun and informal, the better. I'm looking forward to meeting new people! :D

I think what Ellen and I were thinking is that the way to do this would be to have the big event Friday night before the release and then everybody can do their own thing with their own 'people' for their post-read discussion. And like I said, I'll have the new house, so... :) OMG I can do brunch!

That sounds absolutely perfect to me. <3
