About David Yates (2007): "I think David Yates is keeping it fresh for me. It's amazing. This is my fourth director and they all seem so different. He's quite quiet, very calm, very thoughtful, very sensitive. He's very much into finding the truth in the character and in the performance, he's a real actor's director. That's great for me. He'll pull an even better performance."

Ron's Inspiration Story

I thought you all should know how Emma Watson and the Harry Potter series has been a great inspiration to me in the past few years. Four years ago I wanted to be someone. I am stuck in a small town and don't really have any great talents. Thats when Herry Potter came out and I saw what a young person like myself could do.

I decided to write a book. I had no clue what I was doing, but I still wrote. after getting fifty or so pages in I got tired of it. I quit writing for a good few months until I realized I was going down a road to nowhere. I got on the net and looked up Emma. All her sucess brought up my spirits and I got back to the book. I wrote for about a year and a half before stopping again. There was no inspiration left.

As a last try to become someone I got into a creative writing class at my high school. To this day it was the best move I could ever have made. It was a place where I leared alot and enjoyed learning it. I learned how to write fiction and poetry. My book got a fresh start. In that class I wrote a short story that excelled past the other student's storys. My teacher was thrilled with it just as much as I was. it is to be printed into the school lit mag.

This tiny achievement has brought me to a new level. All though it's only being printed in a high school magazine it has let me realize that I have potential to be someone. I wrote in my book more than ever and finally completed it. I am seventeen and I have writen a 218 page novel. Now all there is to be done is editing and I will try my hardest to get it published. Once again I want to give you all, especially Emma Watson, my thanks for helping me to get to where I am today.
