| | |  Rowling to write introduction for Chancellor's book
The Scotsman reports that J.K.Rowling is one of a collection of famous people who will write introductions for Gordon Brown's [ Chancellor of the Exchequer] two books. The books, which will centre around the thinking behind his politics, will also be published by Bloomsbury, the same company who publish the Harry Potter novels in Britain.
Other people writing for Gordon Brown include Nelson Mandela, former US Vice-President Al Gore and Chief Rabbi Jonathon Sacks. The Guardian adds that, "The royalties will go to the Jennifer Brown Research Laboratory, set up by Mr Brown and his wife Sarah after the death of their daughter in 2002."
The books will be released in September on the first day of the Labour Party Conference. | |

__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,
but you know what? It was real. It did happen.
We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |
