It’s probably not a big surprise that I’m a huge Harry Potter fan (not to mention Ron Weasley!) and that Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was one of the bigger influences on Astronaut Academy. Knowing that Megan Brennan (School of World) is also a big fan of J.K. Rowling’s series, I asked her to contribute a guest blog for the Love Letter’s & Heart Containers series. Being a wizard, she not only wrote about her feelings, she drew an entire comic! Even Severus Snape would have to admit that is bloody brilliant!
