Harry Potter aspires to be a writer

Daniel Radcliffe

Daniel Radcliffe has worked in the series of Harry Potter films as the lead character of Harry Potter:
# Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001)
# Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (2002)
# Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004)
# Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005)
# Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007)
# Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009)
# Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1 (2010)
# Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 (2011)

The films have been based on novels by J.K.Rowling. And now Harry Potter aka Daniel Radcliffe himself aspires to be a writer. He says that he wants to try his hand at scripting a play or a film.
Daniel, who has been working in films ever since he was 12-year-old, says, "Every time I see a play or a film,I want to write something. I'm convinced in my heart that I am a writer, but I have no ideas."
Let's see if some ideas strike him and his pen churns out some inspired piece of writing!

Harry Potter alive?

Harry Potter fans can now heave a sigh of relief. The latest news is that Harry Potter is very much alive in the seventh book 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows'. But this news is no substitute for reading and relishing each chapter as you go through the book. So just like the protagonist of majority of other novels, he lives on, victorious over the evil or something else is in store? Let's catch hold of a copy of the novel and find out.
Actually the book was leaked four-five days before it was released. It was available for download on some sites. The New York Times even published a review of the final book of Harry Potter on Thursday, that is 19 July, before its official release. These are proof enough of Harry's popularity. What I believe is that all kinds of illegal activities won't deter die-hard Potter fans from purchasing the book. Afterall, we read a book for aesthetic pleasure and because of our literary interest in it. Just knowing what happens is not sufficient for a book lover. At least this is what I think!
And anyway this book is expected to be the world's fastest selling book ever.
