| | | J.K.Rowling will "probably" publish Potter encyclopedia (spoilers!)
J.K. Rowling has told the Today Show that she will "probably" publish a Potter encyclopedia featuring more details about her characters and the wizarding world beyond the ending of Deathly Hallows. Quote: |
“I suppose I have (started) because the raw material is all in my notes,” Rowling said.
| Quote: |
“I’m not going to do it tomorrow because I’d really like a break,” Rowling said, laughing. “So you may be waiting.”
| Rowling went on to divulge some details about the wizarding world, post- Deathly Hallows.
She also revealed which character got the reprieve she referred to last year - in other words, which character she originally planned to kill, but brought back in a later draft.
She also spoke about the writing of a particular chapter toward the end of Deathly Hallows.

i'm wondering which questions are you referring to? |

Uwa Naoke Department of Mysteries | I really want that book. I think if she makes it definate, I might fall out of my depression because I've been depressed since the end of DH. It killed me. I think a Dementor sucked out my soul..... And oh, I can't believe who the reprieve went to! I hope she writes that book.... soon.... ish.... I'm sure she wants a break and it's not like she needs the money now.... |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Alicia First | she said something like this on a british talk show that I watched. I hope she does!!!!!!!!
oOo, I just remembered, she also said that anything she does write and put there, like an encyclopedia, all proceeds will go to charity. possibly comic relief??

| Wow that would be so good - because I ended Deathly Hallows and still had a few questions so to have them all answered would be awesome!! |

| This is great, there are so many things I wish she could have put into DH but I can see why she didn't. The book would have been huge! |
