Not sure if this discussion is any good:
We talk about how we would love to get Jo to answer all of your questions, but lets say you could only ask one question, what would it be?
I suppose to be kind, we could stretch to 2 questions, one about the general HP world or her other projects etc and the other is an unanswered question about the plot that you didn't feel was cleared up. But bear in mind that this is the only one that she would answer.
Any thoughts? |

That's a really great discussion topic! Though I must admit, it is going to require some thought on my part b/c I can't think of just one question! So I have to try to think what the best question would be.... I'll get back to you  |

I think my major query would be the whole Peter Pettigrew thing. I'm not sure whether it was ever confirmed that he was in Gryffindor, but the assumption is there seeing as the friends were so close. So how could such a coward be in that house? I mean, I was expecting great things from him in the last book, where he would show he really does love his friends etc, but he never did that of his own free will. The apprehension was more automatic than actual regret. I suppose I just want that cleared up.
And I think the other question would be what has the fame cost you? I suppose everyone thinks being famous is so great, but what is the biggest draw back? I think with her being rightly so protective of her family and friends being dragged into the spot light, her privacy being infringed, the hurtful rumours, the ongoing legal battles and the other countless things that come into it, I just wondered what one thing she would change about fame? |

Wait,just one question? Oh I have a million plus one lol but I think the main one I have is about the House Elfs. How did they fare after the final battle. Like was there still great animosity with the wizards and House Elfs or did they finally begin to understand the plight they both were going throuh and began to help eachother out?
I could go on and on but I'll stop there because my fingers are tired. |

Ooh!! Good question! But just one question?
*pokes Ari* Ah of course you would ask about the House elves; I expect nothing else from you. xD
Well, I don't want to be repetitive although the Peter thing is a great question. So perhaps I might want to ask more about the veil and the Dept of Mysteries. Yes, I realize that it is called "mysteries" and she probably wants it to remain that way but at the same time, I'm curious
Also, I'd ask more information about some of the lesser known classes with their teachings and all that. Things like Herbology or Ancient Runes. |

Just thought of another; the lesser known professors of Hogwarts, who are they, what do they teach etc. I realize it's more than one question but honestly there's too many to choose  |

Oh my. Just one? Hmm ...
I really don't have just one question to ask her. I have like a billion of them!  But, I would first ask her about the "Next Generation" kids and their futures, ect. I'm really interested in them, seeming as we only just met them at the very end of Deathly Hallows and didn't really learn much about them at all. |

The department of mysteries question is definately a good one. I think I would also like to know more about what happened at the ministry, where people were based, whether everything did change (house elves being more represented) and also, I think is one of my major questions as well is how did the Longbottoms and the Potters defy Voldemort 3 times? |

Been a few days, what did you all think about the news article about Jo topping the quiz thing? I thought it was kind of interesting, I mean she even beat out most of the men  I have no clue what it's about though. |

Haha yeah I saw that quiz! I was like, "Who would even think to have Rowling on their team?!" but it's such a good idea. She knows all of this random stuff, it's awesome.  |

Just letting you all know I'm around! I apologize for not updating my news corner  After next Tuesday, I'll be better... Promise!
Anyway, yes i think its awesome how laid back Rowling can be about all the stuff that goes on about her. I guess she kind of has to be, no? If she worried about all the little/petty things, then she would be a very busy lady! |

Not to mention paranoid that something would happen to her if she didn't do something. |

Hiya, sorry I've not been on here for a while, just been super busy with work and then away celebrating my birthday (another year older, just no wiser).
That pub quiz thing was quite a bizarre story, but I suppose she would be a good person for general knowledge! |

The quiz team thing, she'd probably be great at because of all the research she did when writing Potter. She's researched so much stuff that she probably has a wealth of knowledge that would be useful! |
