Jeee!
Rowling kirjoittaa vielä yhden Potter-aiheisen kirjan!
Jee, en koskaan epäillyt, etteikö Rowling sitä kirjoittaisi. :) Mut nyt se on vähän niin kuin vahvistettu.
“J.K. Rowling told TODAY’s Meredith Vieira she will most likely publish a Potter encyclopedia, promising many more details about her beloved characters and the fate of the wizarding world beyond the few clues provided in the seventh book’s epilogue.
While Rowling hasn’t officially started writing the encyclopedia, although she’s got plenty of material from the stories left on the cutting room floor over the past 17 years."
“I’ve said before that Dean Thomas had a much more interesting history than ever appeared in the books for me, and you just see glimpses of it,” Rowling said. “But to write it really would take us into prequel territory. And that does take us into Star Wars territory. And that’s not really a place I’m planning to go.
“So there’s always been bits that I knew about characters that didn’t make final cuts because they weren’t that relevant.”
All of the characters continue to live in her head, Rowling told Vieira, and she has a very clear idea of what they’re up to today and the shape of the world in which they live, after Lord Voldemort has been vanquished.
For example, Hogwarts has a new headmaster (“McGonagle was really getting on a bit”), and Rowling said she can see Harry going back from time to time to give lectures on Defense Against the Dark Arts. That class, by the way, is led by a permanent professor now that Voldemort’s death broke the jinx he placed on the position which didn’t allow a teacher to stay for more than a year.
Fans will have to wait a bit longer to get their hands on Rowling’s next Potter work.
“I’m not going to (write the encyclopedia) tomorrow because I’d really like a break,” Rowling said. “So you may be waiting.”

Rowling myös paljasti, kenet säästi kuiolemalta
2The character Rowling couldn’t bear to kill
One of the big stories that has been floating among fans for over a year is that one character gets a reprieve from death, while two others Rowling didn’t intend to kill end up dying in “Deathly Hallows.”
“Mr. Weasley, he was the person who got a reprieve,” Rowling said. “When I sketched out the books, Mr. Weasley was due to die in Book Five.”
Instead, another father dies in the end of Book Seven.
Though Rowling couldn’t bear to kill off Arthur Weasley, that didn't mean the other deaths in the book were easy to take. Given the blood bath that is “Deathly Hallows,” the writing of it was bound to be an emotional roller coaster."
