| | |  Quotes from new J.K.Rowling interview
The Telegraph has quotes from a new interview with J.K.Rowling which is featured in Tatler Magazine. Jo talks about her mother, who died after suffering with multiple sclerosis, and how she coped with her mother's illness. Quote:
"I know I was writing Harry Potter at the moment my mother died," she says. "I had never told her about [him].
"Barely a day goes by when I do not think of her. There would be so much to tell her, impossibly much."
She also talks about coping with the fame that Harry Potter has brought. Quote:
"I have never said this before, but when I was repeatedly asked, 'How are you coping?', I would say 'fine' [but] I was lying to myself. I had lived under a rock for such a long time and suddenly someone had lifted it off and was shining a torch on to me. I was petrified and didn't know how to handle it."
If anyone has scans of the new Tatler Magazine, please send them into us!

She is an amazing women, thats sad. It must be hard for her, to be constantly reminded by the story that her mother died. I feel for her, but she's a wonderful person. I would love to meet her, it would be fantastic.

Everytime I see her speak or read something she said, I feel she says it with her heart and soul.

A really strong woman, and it shows in her works. She definitely deserves this fame and her mother must be really proud of her.
