^Congratulations Andrew in your first topic reply post!
Well, I also think it's wonderful, it just shows what an amazing influential person she truely is. I hope all these ceremonies and public appearance isn't affecting our release date on that book though! :whisle: (JK) In-fact I'm finding it a good sign, it could mean its already in the hands of the editors! Nice thought...
Well done Jo! :flowersmile:

But I didn't know about her land donation, thats incredible. It's a shame that alot of what she does is kept underwraps sometimes. In a way she reminds me a little of Princess Diana.
I will have to check out Edinburgh Kaz, find out what all the fuss is about!? |

Congratulations Ms. Rowling! You deserved this. You're an awsome writter. I am going to cry when she doesn't write anymore. Yes it's because it's no more Harry, but also, I love how she writes, I feel like she knows how life is like. And she is just so great. It's going to be sad.

Good for her! She deserves to have all that money because she uses it for good, unlike other spoiled celebrities who are snobs just because they are rich *cough* Paris Hilton *cough*! :flowersmile:
