Shamrock or Holy Trinity?

Today is the day I finished the Harry Potter series. Extremely late, I know, even by the standard of casual Harry readers. I can see these books being the Roald Dahl's books of 21st century. I can see the books being reprinted and read for many generations to come. Books are being spun out of it during this moment. Merchandises produced, movie rights secured. It's all a snowball which will provide for JK Rowling and family for a long long time!!

Anyway, imagine yourself as a struggling mom, envisioning these characters, and actually finishing the book after years, getting a publisher, til today, when you are the richest woman in the country, and one of the most successful writers of the world. How satisfying it must be! Well done, Ms. Rowling.
