JKR confirms that Harry is, in fact, still the hero of her story...

Apr 06, 2005 11:49

I can't tell you how thrilled I am that JKR has debunked the Knight to King theory. I will give the authors of this theory credit for being so creative and for putting so much time, effort and thought into their theory. I was even sucked in for about 15 minutes when I read it. Then the reality of canon returned and I came to my senses. I do wonder ( Read more... )

I too am glad she put that to rest. While I appreciated the theory and write ups for what they were I just could not wrap my brain around it. I love Ron, but I love him for all the reasons you stated Mel. I have always said this "the story is about Harry Potter" whether on the shipping level or any other character level. I think the only perspective we will ever see is Harry's.

This cracked me up and is why I love Jo Rawling! "(chuckles as the distant roars of a million shippers reach my ears, all cursing me to an eternity of unsatisfied curiosity)."

Yeah, she's having a good laugh at us shippers, isn't she? It's a bit irritating. I'll tell her that when I have tea with her tomorrow.

lol Mel...you poor thing!! Tell her I said hello and to keep up the snarky remarks!

I think I am just as amused as JKR about all the shipping wars. However, I will be highly pissed if she does not answer the shipping questions in HBP.

I know she is all about pleasing herself first but doesn't every writer ultimately want to please their fans as well???

she will lose alot of credibility with me if she doesn't answer the question. I'm not saying that because I'm a shipper and I want to know. I'm saying that because, as I've stated before, for teenagers it strains credibility that the issue wouldn't be addressed in some form or fashion.

Totally agree...they are all going on 17 years old and there has to be that dating aspect of their lives as well as a bit of sexual tension.
