| | |  JKR Updates her Site for Christmas
Our favorite author J.K. Rowling has updated her site as a Christmas treat! Among the updates are some words about Book 7: Quote:
For 2006 will be the year when I write the final book in the Harry Potter series. I contemplate the task with mingled feelings of excitement and dread, because I can't wait to get started, to tell the final part of the story and, at last, to answer all the questions (will I ever answer all of the questions? Let's aim for most of the questions); and yet it will all be over at last and I can't quite imagine life without Harry.
Quote:
I have been fine-tuning the fine-tuned plan of seven during the past few weeks so that I can really set to work in January. Reading through the plan is like contemplating the map of an unknown country in which I will soon find myself. Sometimes, even at this stage, you can see trouble looming; nearly all of the six published books have had Chapters of Doom. The quintessential, never, I hope, to be beaten Chapter That Nearly Broke My Will To Go On was chapter nine, 'Goblet of Fire' (appropriately enough, 'The Dark Mark'.)
There are updates in the rumours section. Rumours answered include: Quote: Aunt Petunia will start exhibiting magical tendencies
No, she won't. Aunt Petunia has never performed magic, nor will she ever be able to do so.
Quote: Peter Pettigrew's silver hand will be used to kill Remus Lupin
Nice idea, clearly predicated on the legend that only a silver bullet can kill a werewolf – but incorrect.
Quote: Book Seven will be called 'Harry Potter and the Pyramids of Furmat'
The Pyramids of Furmat lie a few miles east of the famous Fortress of Shadows, not far from the magnificent Pillar of Storgé. Many tourists prefer to view these ancient monuments at night, when they are illuminated by the Green Flame Torch.
Quote: The Sorting Hat is a Horcrux
No, it isn't. Horcruxes do not draw attention to themselves by singing songs in front of large audiences.
Other updates can be found in the About Me section, the Rubbish Bin and the FAQ has a new poll.

I didn't post all of the Rumours guys! So go look! There is a second one about my Remus... Quote: Lupin will come back as DADA teacher
Alas, no. Lupin's exposure as a werewolf did irreparable damage to his prospects for a career in teaching, and with the likes of Fenrir Greyback out there, werewolves are unlikely to receive a good press any time soon.

I rather liked the idea of Aunt Petunia being a 'closet witch.' Too bad that's not gonna happen. *cries*
But hey, as long as I see more Scrimgeour in Book 7, I won't be complaining.

I have mixed feelings about book 7 coming out. I want it to b/c I want to know what happens, but at the same time I don't want it to b/c that means no more Harry Potter.
