| | | J.K.Rowling not on social networking websites
J.K.Rowling has updated her official site to clarify that she doesn't have accounts on any social networking websites, including but not limited to, MySpace, Bebo and Facebook. Quote:
No, sorry, not even one of them, though they do seem to lead very exciting lives, these fake J K Rowlings. I like to imagine them partying with all my imaginary friends (‘a close friend confided…’) in some bright and shiny alternative universe. But meanwhile, on planet earth, the dull human J K Rowling hasn’t got, and has never had, a profile on MySpace, Bebo or any similar site.

Violet Silvermoon Magical Creatures | A bit confused No I never really thought she would do that. I know I wouldn't if I were her. wouldn't it be strange if she was on some random online game like gaia or runescape, or Pirates of the Caribbean online, and you interacted with her and never knew... |

Bella Montez Greingoth Magical Transportation | Hermione's Double Coocoo for Canna I think it's a shame people try to pose as celebrities online. A lot of people dream every day of meeting to or just talking to their favorite celebrity. I think it's cruel to trick someone into believing one of their biggest dreams is coming true.
And I agree, IF she did have an account somewhere, which she just said she didn't....but IF...I doubt she would have it to where it was easily found. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Elizabeth | Mrs. Tony Stark  HA! JK would never get on Facebook! It's past her generation...
It would be really weird to see her on there anyway...
I'm glad she's not affiliated with any of the networking sites anyway.
I think they're past her. |
