| | |  Quote of the Week - Lauren Laverne & Michael Davies
Lauren Laverne & Michael Davies, two writers hoping to follow in the footsteps of J.K. Rowling, comment on the author of the Harry Potter series. Quote:
LAUREN Laverne says she'd like to write a book in the future - but she's not sure whether she'd be able to rival JK Rowling.
The Culture Show presenter admitted: "I could say I'd give JK Rowling a run for her money, but she's got so much money I'd need to run too far."
Quote:
“Most of all, I’d like to knock Harry Potter off his perch,” says Mr Davies, whose novels include The Mickie Dalton trilogy, three sci-fi adventures aimed at 12 to 16 year olds.
“I don’t really think I ever could topple JK Rowling,” he says of the writer of the Harry Potter books.
“But it’d be nice to known in Kempsey as ‘that famous writer’.”

Good qoutes. I'm trying to write, and can only hope to get 1/4 of what JK has done.

As long as their books encourage kids to read more of this genre of books, more power to them.
