J.K. Rowling goes Beyond the Epilogue
[info from various sources including MSNBC and USA Today]

J.K. Rowling has announced in new interviews with the Today show on NBC TV today (July 26) that the epilogue of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was vague on purpose.

She said it was her desire for it to be "nebulous," something "poetic," and that she wanted the readers to feel as if they were looking at Platform 9 3/4 through the mist, unable to make out exactly who was there and who was not.

She admitted her original epilogue was "a lot more detailed," including the name of every child born to...

Dropping The Babies Off
The darkness fell over the old city as another day has passed. In the distance,beyond where no one could see,an old man in robes w talked down the crooked street. He seemed very busy and concentrated. When he was in the middle of the path,he took a silver machine about the size of a baseball. He clicked it several times,making the street lights disappear.
Once he finished,he heard a small meow from a tabby cat that sat at his feet. "I should have expected you to be here. Professor McGonagall.",He smiled. The tabby c as t suddenly transformed into an old woman. About the...

What is it with all of the comparison typed content all over the internet between Twilight and Harry Potter?

Well I suppose they can be compared by their levels of success--but not really--harry potter is on another level.

And as a story, it's like comparing a coloring book to a good novel. Apples and oranges people.

In Harry Potter JK Rowling creates a whole other universe for readers to lose themselves in. Stephanie Meyer on the other hand has just slapped together a barely readable teenage fantasy.

RL. Stines Goosebumps books are more engagnig that Twilight for Pete's sake.

I have watched one of the Twilight movies and didn't find it enjoyable at all. What is so enjoyable about watching an ungrateful teenage protagonist that does little more than moan and complain? Nothing.

It's finally Friday, and all of us are antsy. Aimee and I are sitting in Defense Against the Dark Arts, and it's the last class of the day. Professor Hopkirk is full swing into a lesson, and she's perfectly aware that no one is listening to her.

''And so, that's the full cycle of a werewolf.'' She finishes. ''And because none of you were listening, I want a two page essay on it.''

The class groans. ''But it's the weekend!'' We protest.

''And you should've listened to me when I was teaching.'' The bell rings, and we all get up and leave.

''That old bat,'' Aimee grumbles. ''Has to give an essay...

I wish it could stay like this forever. But sadly, it can't. In two days, I'm going to go to school and leave behind my parents, all my relatives, really. I always hated going back to school, but not for the reason most kids did. I actually liked to learn, the thing that upset me was being away from family. And now that James was close to ending his education, there would be even fewer of us.
The Weasley/Potter kids were slowly leaving Hogwarts, and I didn't like it. But, what could I do? Force my cousins to stay forever? Bring my parents with me? No, I couldn't. I have to suck it up and live...
