Considerations
Everyone who cares will probably already know this, but the JKR comments at her book reading are really very good. Not only are they "shockingly indiscreet" and lend to wonderful speculation, but she explicitly nixes some types of fic that I particularly dislike: i.e. the "Sirius was married" and the "Riddle was married" kinds. She also mentions a heretofore unseen character, notes that Blaise (male) finally shows up again, confirms our Hog's Head bartender guess, and makes maddening comments about Dumbledore. Really, the Dumbledore comments are just -- very interesting. Oh, and she lets drop a note about Death Eaters too, which is a subject that I am particularly interested in.
I think I'll hold off on reading that HBP excerpt behind the door. I don't want to be spoiled too badly.
