Dear JK Rowling,
You have created a bit of a monster with a life of it's own.
Thank you for what you have started, I honestly think it will go on forever.
Yours,
Amoniel

Dear David Yates,
You stink as a director, and Ginny ought to
put the bat bogey hex on you.

A letter to Oliver Wood
Dear Wood,
You are a splendid character.
I think it's great that you were the one
who introduced Harry to Quidditch.
You were a great team captain, and I
hope you went on to make a career of
Quidditch after you graduated Hogwarts.
I rather wish that the books had made
more mention of you, I am of the opinion
that you are a vastly under-appreciated
character.
The weather kinda stinks today, 'twouldn't
make for an ideal Quidditch practice, and
it makes for dismal roller blading.
Too bad.
The weather just can't decide what it
wants to be, again. That's how it is most
springs, and it always snows in march,
sometimes even as late as may.
Our winters are that of mild befuddlement,
as opposed to the usual rage :/
I am excited for Summer! I wish it would
come a little quicker. We haven't had our
spring break yet, though my dad was on
his a little while ago. Come to think of it,
his spring break was pretty short.
Here I am, talking of summer, and we
haven't even had spring break yet! How silly.
Oh, look at the time, it's 3:03 according to
the 'Touch's clock. Haha, there's a band
named 3OH!3, you know.
Not something I would name a band,
personally, but memorable nonetheless
I should be going now, I am eager to
go outside and roller-blade.
Thank you for taking the one to read this
letter, I hope you enjoyed it :)

March 9th, 2011. Wednesday. Last letter of 20 Day Letters To Hogwarts Project
Day 20, a letter to J.K. Rowling
Dear J.K. Rowling,
I would like to thank you for your gift to the world, that of the
Harry Potterbooks and the many more that you have written
and will write.
I was at first rather, well, nervous about writing this letter. I
wanted it to be the awesome culmination of this project. I
was procrastinating writing it.
But then I realized that this letter really doesn't have to be
special or any better than the previous nineteen.
Though it will be different. I am writing to a real, existing
person in this letter, albeit you probably won't ever lay eyes
on it. And that doesn't matter. It's enough, to me, that this letter
exists, that I'm writing it, and that you exist, that your books
exist.
Your books were so Original. Althought there was that one
guy who said you ripped off his "Willy the wizard" books.
They sound really lame, to tell you the truth. I really just think
he was money and fame grubbing. And even if your books
bear a resemblance to his, it's just pure coincidence. I think
you've said that you have never laid eyes
on the "Willy the wizard" books.
I really have no idea why I wrote about all of that, it just kind
of flowed from my mind to my fingers. (I'm writing this on the
iPod Touch.)
Funny how that works sometimes, isn't it?
One thing leads to another.
Also, I read an MLIA where somebody said you had ripped
off of JRR Tolkien, pure pish posh, in my opinion. You're both
of completely different genres! There's no comparison, and
Harry Potter bears no resemblance to Lord of the Rings, the
Hobbit, the Silmarillion, or that dog book Tolkien wrote.
I just thought I'd tell you about that.
Sincerely yours,
Amoniel

Day 19, a letter to Voldemort
Tom Riddle,
I had originally thought that this letter would be fairly easy to write,
but I have since developed an adversity to you again.
I won't say that I hate you, but you and your actions really
repulse me.
You're such a villain, and I guess that if you had been raised
different, in the arms of a loving family, you would have turned
out different. I am sorry that you missed that chance. Who knows?
Maybe you would have turned out to be a perfectly decent human
being, albeit a wizard who could speak parseltongue.
I really am sorry for you.
And then again, maybe you would have turned out exactly as you
did no matter the circumstances. Or else some other power-hungry
wizard would have risen to fill the role of Lord Voldemort.
Sincerely,
Amoniel

Ohm
I'm getting really sick of mostly just posting stuff from my other blog all the time. I haven't really created any new work lately, it makes me feel hollow. I'm not coming up with anything new or particularly heartfelt, mostly I'm just posting other people's work (Quotes and links) or my stupid HP letters project.
Everything I wrote on my letters blog was, of course, heartfelt at the time, but now it's all just old news to me, and half of it's boring and redundant anyway. Maybe some day I will repeat the project, and I'll see what has newly developed in my heart. It's been a couple years since I wrote all of that. But at the moment, I very much do not ever want to do that.

I'm a goose, I missed posting a few letters so now I'll give you three at once, because I like it when the week days they were written on match up with the ones I post them on
Day 18, a letter to Sybil Trelawney
Dear Trelawney,
I was terribly excited when I read your name on the list! You're
such a quirky character. And you're one of my favorites, even
though none of the golden three can stand you.
I can't say as I know if I'd like your class. I do believe in a lot of
the unseen, and you are a true seer, even if that's not exactly
one of your most prominent traits at first sight.
Dumbledore believed in you, so I think that I do.
You almost remind me of Luna, in a way, and I really like Luna.
You're a really well developed character, in my opinion; that
makes you all the more lovable.
It's rather funny how I've gone from writing to you guys as real
people to writing to you purely as characters.
I wonder what constituted the change?
I think it gives me more freedom in what I can write to you. I can
write about how I think you're well written.
I really think you were well-represented in the movie, Emma
Thompson was wonderful. She really is an exquisite actress.
You know, it took me the longest time to figure out that it was
Emma Thompson who played you, but then again, I have only
just become familiar with her in films. I really liked her in Stranger
Than Fiction, and she was good in Nanny McPhee.
The Harry Potter movies were cast really well.
Thanks for reading, I really enjoyed writing this letter.
Love,
Amoniel

Day 17, a letter to Argus Filch
Dear Filch,
I have to say that I was a little surprised to see your
name on the list.
You don't seem like all that prominent of a character
to me.
And I can't think of much to say to you, sorry.
Have a nice Sunday.

Day 16, a letter to Alastor Moody
Dear- may I call you Mad Eye Moody?
Dear Mad Eye Moody,
You probably weren't as crazy as most people thought
you were.
You were just very careful, and you had good reason to be.
I can only imagine all of the powerful enemies you made
during your Auror days.
You probably would have made a pretty good defense
against the dark arts teacher if you'd only had the chance.
That whole situation cracks me up, I'm not sure why.
Pretty weird though, isn't it?
Thanks for the services you gave to the wizarding world,
you played a great part in the salvation of our worlds as we
know them.
Love,
Amoniel

Day 15, a letter to Severus Snape
Dear Snape,
I'm sorry this letter is a day late, I'm afraid that yesterday was
rather busy.
The world seems to be changing really fast in so many ways.
I hope that it completely metamorphosizes into a much better,
hopefully perfect world.
That'd be nice.
We watched Signs with a couple of friends last night. I actually
liked it, though the aliens came back to haunt me when I was
trying to sleep.
I don't get nightmares from movies anymore, but I do have a
very vivid imagination and a certain amount of gullibility.
I got over it eventually. The need to pee overrode my fear.
Sometimes I really can't believe what I can make myself
believe. (Oxymoronic, I know.)
I'm sorry for how you were treated most of your life, Snape.
You really had a hard one.
An you want to know what? I still believed in you, even after
it looked like you had killed Dumbledore in cold blood.
I still believed that you could be good. You really weren't one
of my favorite characters at first, but you grew on me. I began
to sympathize with you, and, really, the good you did overrode
the (sometimes unintentional) bad.
You really aren't all that bad of a character, you may even
be lovable.
Love,
Amoniel

Day 14, a letter to Remus Lupin
Dear Lupin,
I can't think of much to say to you, I'm afraid.
Though abstract things come to mind, such as chocolate, squid, and your face.
Grindylows have always seemed squid-like to me. And as for the chocolate and your face, those are pretty self-explanatory, the first thing you gave to Harry was a piece of chocolate after the dementor had been hanging around the train.
You're the coolest werwolf I've ever heard of. And it makes me sad that your life was cut short, no more do any of the marauders wander this Earth, alone or together. Coolest teen clique (group, whatever you want to call it) ever.
You just don't get people like that any more.
I've always wondered what it would have been like to be taught by you, you were probably the best Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher to come through Hogwarts after the position was cursed. Though Barty Crouch Jr. was pretty good, he did practice the dark arts after all. That was a very interesting little plot twist. Did you smile to yourself a little when you heard that one? It was kind of funny.
I can't wait to read Jo's new book concerning the Marauders, it sounds awesome! It'll be just as if you guys were all alive still. And I'm so very glad JK'll be picking up the magical world she introduced in Harry Potter again.
Anyways, thanks for reading. You'll be in my heart always, as you are one of my favorite characters.
Love,
Amoniel

Day 13, a letter to Rubeus Hagrid
Dear Hagrid,
How is Fang?
I trust your groundskeeping duties have been going well.
Today's been slow and long.
Long and slow.
I wrote a poem.
A lot of this past week has been long and slow. It's stupid.
I want to go somewhere new and exciting, and I want to
do lots of new and exciting things.
It doesn't even have to involve lots of money, it could be
sledding in a new location, or learning how to ski.
I think I want summer back. I can do so much more by
myself in the summer.
This winter has been mostly really dreary and melty. I'm
sick of slush and mud. I could probably sled happily
around town if everything wasn't so cloudy and mushy.
How's the snow up at Hogwarts?
I'm willing to bet it's a whole lot better than the snow
down here.
I hope you've been doing well, and I hope that you're
making friends with lots of students, you're a really cool guy.
Love,
Amoniel

Day 12, a letter to Minerva McGonagall
Dear McGonagall,
How are you?
I'm doing much better, even went to get milk with my mom today.
I enjoyed it, even though two of my sisters came too and that
hadn't been in the original plans as I had understood them at all.
But it turned out okay anyway.
I want to move.
Utaha stinks, stonecity has no community, and Snakepit
county has nothing to do.
I don't feel accepted my most of the people around here, and
that's how it's been my whole life.
I really don't understand why my parents won't move. They don't
like it around here any more than I do, maybe even less. They're
just scared, this is all they've known for a very long time, and
they're afraid of sinking our family in the act of moving somewhere.
I guess they figure they're pretty much stable where they are.
But the thing is, we're not very happy. What are you supposed to
do about that?
I'm not saying much about you in this letter because there
really just isn't much for me to say about you.
You're an animagus, I've always thought that was pretty cool,
but I don't like cats much anyway.
You're a pretty great teacher, and I think if I were to be invited
to Hogwarts, your class would be one of my favorites.
You were pretty well portrayed in the movies.
You were a great help to Harry, especially with his Quidditch
career.
You're probably making a top-notch headmaster.
That's really all I have to say, but I'll wager you already know
all that. That's why I don't much like writing anything in these
letters that starts with 'you'. I'm really just stating facts. It makes
for a boring letter and a redundant project.
But I also don't like talking about myself too much.
Forever searching for that glorious middle, eh?
Ah well, an end to make.
Thankee for taking the time to read this, Minerva.
You're an outstanding witch, and a brilliant person.
(there I go again...)
Sincerely,
Amoniel

Day 11, a letter to Albus Percival Wolfric Dumbledore
Dear Dumbledore,
I honestly am getting sick of how I seem to be telling everyone what sort of people they are in these letters, it's getting redundant. So I won't be telling any of that to you.
I wonder how it was to manage such a large school with so many students? I have the hardest time with just my seven siblings. Then again, you hardly did much, did you? Didn't even teach. What do headmasters even do?
I guess it doesn't matter, you helped Harry so much, even though he rather liked blaming his problems on you.
I think my eyesight is going, how do you think I'd look in half-moon spectacles?
I would like this letter to be long, I've been slacking so ever since I got sick. But I really don't want to draw this letter out, or make it no fun to read whatsoever.
I basically have nothing more to tell you.
I admire you and what you did with your life, you're pretty cool. (Sorry, I said I wouldn't be doing any of that, I just couldn't resist with the last sentence.)
Love,
Amoniel

Day ten, a letter to a character of your choice.
Dear Crookshanks,
You're a cat.
You're not a terribly important character, but I find you amusing.
Your letter is late, and I'll bet that you, being a cat, are not in any way pleased.
I ask you to accept this fictional magical catnip mouse as my apology.
Sincerely,
Amoniel

Dear Fred and George,
Sorry this letter is late.
You guys are awesome, you kept Hogwarts a

Dear Cedric,
You were pretty cool.
You were really one of the only people representing
Hufflepuff in the HP books.
I respect and admire you a lot, you were very fair, kind,
and just.

20 day letters to Hogwarts challenge: day 7, Luna Lovegood
Dear Luna,
I am still feeling rather under the weather, though I feel much better than I did yesterday.
I'm afraid I rather put your letter off a lot today, because I'm not feeling too well.
Anyways, you are one of my favorite characters, I relate to you in a lot of ways. I'm a bit of an outcast too, though I'm not as crazily flamboyant as you are.
Luna, I really don't want to go to sleep tonight, I had such strange and disturbing dreams last night.
So many unfamiliar textures and feelings.
I think I even dreamed I was being squeezed into an increasingly small stone box. That was the dream that freaked me out the most.
I really don't want to have any more dreams like that.
I've had sick dreams that were cozy before, but last night's weren't, in any way, cozy.
I really want to recover fast, and actually, I haven't been getting this flu as bad as some of my siblings are.
As I said earlier in this letter, I feel much better than I did yesterday.
What a relief :)
So, on this positive note, I will end this letter to you.
Thanks for listening,
Love,
Amoniel
Dear Luna,
I am still feeling rather under the weather, though I feel much better than I did yesterday.
I'm afraid I rather put your letter off a lot today, because I'm not feeling too well.
Anyways, you are one of my favorite characters, I relate to you in a lot of ways. I'm a bit of an outcast too, though I'm not as crazily flamboyant as you are.
Luna, I really don't want to go to sleep tonight, I had such strange and disturbing dreams last night.
So many unfamiliar textures and feelings.

20 day letters to Hogwarts challenge: day 6, Ginny Weasley
Dear Ginny,
I don't feel so well today, so this letter will probably be short.
You're a pretty cool character, and I rather admire and respect you. I don't feel bad at all that you and Harry ended up together, you're perfect for each other.
Love,
Amoniel

20 letters to hogwarts: day 5, Neville Longbottom
Dear Neville,
You truly belong in Gryffindor, in my opinion.
You are one of my favorite characters.
You did a magnificent job helping defeat Voldemort. Thank you.
I rather wish that Harry and you could have been closer friends; really, the only true, close friends he allowed himself were Hermione and Ron.
But I suppose that's his problem.
You did a great job in welcoming Harry, Hermione, and Ron back to Hogwarts.
I really think you helped bolster their courage; you helped them feel that their fight was not theirs alone.
I always thought you and Luna should have ended up together, though I liked how you became a professor at Hogwarts in the epilogue. That was perfect.
Thank you for being a friend to the golden three when they needed you.
Thank you for being such a kind, brave, and loyal character.
Love,
Amoniel

20 Days Letters to Hogwarts Challenge: Day 4, Draco Malfoy
Dear Draco,
The world is in turmoil.
I am experiencing hope and sadness at the same time.
The world is so surreal.
It's almost as if I'm not in my body sometimes, I have no idea what that means.
This isn't exactly what I'd envisioned for your letter. But does that really matter? I'm just going with the flow for these. Which generally means that I explain to you guys about how I'm feeling on a particular day.
I'm probably going to really miss this project when I'm done, but I guess it's really just beside the point to be thinking of that right now.
You know, I really hated your character at first, you were so poisonous and condescending. But I've come to sympathize with you. You were kind of just born to the wrong parents at the wrong time.
I was really happy that you guys basically made the right choice in the end.
I will forever respect Narcissa for what she said to Voldemort when they all thought Harry was dead.
I have always wished that you and Harry had ended on better terms than you did, those of polite acquaintance.
I wanted you guys to end up as friends, and your children to end up as friends.
Ah well, it ended better than it could have been.
Love,
Amoniel

20 Day Letters to Hogwarts Challenge: Day 3, Hermione Granger
Dear Hermione,
You are an incredibly inspiring person, and you are one of my favorite people to read about in fan fiction; there was this one story that I particularly like, it was about you and Draco. In the story, Dumbledore had decided to introduce a 12 days of Christmas-Secret Santa program to promote inter-house relations.
You got Draco as your person to do gifts for, which you weren’t terribly happy about at first. But you warmed up to the idea, and you fell in love with Draco. Luckily, he ended up liking you back, so the story ended happily.
I thought the story was really sweet, well-written, and creative.
I don’t know if you’d approve of it or not, but I really liked it.
This isn’t to say that I really ship you and Draco, I think Ron is the perfect person for you, and I like how J.K. Rowling ended the story with you and him.
I really admire you, and it’s thanks to you that I can’t figure out whether or not if I’m a Gryffindor or a Ravenclaw.
You make such a great Gryffindor, and you would make an equally impressive Ravenclaw.
I wouldn’t quite make a good Ravenclaw in the astoundingly-good-grades sense, I think I’d be more of a Luna Lovegood sort of a Ravenclaw.
My Mom says I would fit into Gryffindor pretty well, but I’m not sure why. I can sense various vague and lurking reasons, but they don’t really come into easily-understood detail for me.
There is so much more that I want to tell you; my mind seems blank at first, but if I sit quietly attuned to my thoughts for a bit, things come crowding to the front of my mind, like so many vague and un-worded birds.
I want to tell you that I feel surrounded by so much beauty today.
I am happy; I am at peace.
I am happy Hermione. I can feel it. I can’t say that I haven’t been happy in awhile; it’s just that I haven’t quite been aware of being happy.
But I’m happy today, I’m happy now.
And I’m very glad to have you to tell that to.
Love,
Amoniel

Twenty day letters to Hogwarts challenge: day two, Ron Weasley
Dear Ron,
I attended my great uncle's funeral today.
I still don't feel as if he were dead.
Do you ever feel that way about your brother, Fred?
How can it be that I can whole-heartedly believe that a fictional character is dead, but not my great uncle?
What could that mean?
Is it good?
My great uncle was, of course much more prominent in my life than Lupin, or Fred, or Dobby, or Tonks were.
I have some great memories of him, and I love him very much. And I'm not even all that closely related to him, I can barely imagine what it must be like for his sons, my second cousins, or his wife, my great aunt.
I miss him.
I've rather missed him in the past year and a half or so too.
He hadn't been in mush contact with the family these past two years.
Maybe that makes his death all the more unbelievable.
And maybe it's because I don't believe in death anyway.
Maybe that will keep him all the more alive to me.
Sincerely yours,
Amoniel
