Potterhead July: Blog Festival Schedule

“Welcome to Potterhead July!”

Thank you so much for the overwhelming and enthusiastic response to Potterhead July! Below is the schedule for all of July, and as you can see there are heaps of exciting posts ahead. For readers, you just have to kick back and enjoy the awesome as it rolls out. We have around 85 magical and thrilling posts coming your way!

For bloggers participating: please note the day you are scheduled and have your post ready on that date. I will be linking your post back to this masterpost, and help you promote it on Twitter as the month goes along.

Because I am bad at saying No: If you are still interested in joining us, I have a couple of slots left on dates in Week 4-5 with only two posts scheduled each, so if you message me, we might be able to work something out!

POSTING GUIDELINES:

• Please post on your blog on the date specified on this schedule, if you are after any changes, message me via my contact form or twitter!
• When you promote your post on social media, please use the #PotterheadJuly Hashtag so your post will be visible to me and everyone following the tag.
• I have provided some graphics template you can use on your blog post below! Click image for full size. You can edit them on Canva to add text e.g. your post title/blog name, I have a tutorial for Canva here. Four are in House Colours, and the other two are Purple for Magic & Rainbow for Diversity – or for anyone feeling Divergent 😉
• There will me a #PotterheadJuly twitter chat on July 31st to celebrate the release of the Cursed Child (spoilers are apparently already out for this, but please resist!)

*collapses* It took me so long to make this table. Thanks to Joey for helping me sort out some of it! Please let me know if I have made any mistakes or if you want anything changed, any error is not at all personal – but just me being confused with all the spreadsheet entries.

I hope you’ll all have heaps of fun ❤ I personally cannot wait to read all these discussions. Let me know of any questions!

“Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak!”
