We've all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That's who we really are.
Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.
'Harry Potter' opened so many doors for young adult literature. It really did convince the publishing industry that writing for children was a viable enterprise. And it also convinced a lot of people that kids will read if we give them books that they care about and love.
