Rarely does my heart ever stop (since I'd be dead), but it skipped a beat this morning when I received a phone call and e-mail telling me HPANA was selected as JK Rowling's newest "Fan Site Award" winner
on her official web site.
Rowling says of HPANA:
I'm humbled and proud beyond words, and would be remiss not to give thanks to the wonderful people who helped create, work on, and contribute to this little site that has grown so much in just two years: So, to Geri and Scott, and forum moderators Natalie, Lamar, Marc, Kendra and Renee, and all our alumni/previous staff members: Great work, congratulations and thank you for your dedication to making HPANA worthy of such an incredible distinction from the author of Harry Potter herself.
I think I speak for all of us when I say we have much to live up to and will continue to do our best. Thank you, Jo, from the bottom of my heart!

You guys do a phenomenal job keeping the site running, and, while I unfortunately cannot post as often as I could in the summer, I still check out all the headlines through livejournal. Keep up the great work guys, it's very much appreciate!!!

Wow! I'm so excited that Jo updated! (Actually, I was just thrilled with all the holiday decorations... so you can imagine my euphoria when I saw that she'd updated everything as well!) It's so hard to wait for the next one to finally come!

This site is pratically THE BEST HP SITE IN THE WHOLE WORLD! I visit this site almost everyday, or about three times a week. This has become my favorite site, and I tell my two best friends, and HP fans to visit this site, but they refuse, one of them goes to mugglenet.com, and the other one just watches the movies, and doesn't know a thing about hp, and wants harry and hermione to go together, based on what she has watched so far, she doesn't read the books either

Hooray for HPANA!
I think it's a toss-up whether I came here or Muggle-net first, but the news right on the front made this one the better choice for a time-strapped person.
Congrats!

How awesome is that. I've been surfing this site for a while before I actually joined, and I always wondered why it hadn't been selected yet.
