Harry Potter author JK Rowling has updated her diary
today with news about how difficult it is to find paper in Edinburgh, visiting the Order of the Phoenix set and talking to the actors.
Below is an excerpt of the entry:
It was exciting to see some of the new Order of the Phoenix sets, but most of all to see the actors again - slightly unnerving to realise that nearly all of them are taller than me now (I speak, of course, of the teenagers; Michael Gambon was always taller than me, and very lovely he looked in his new robes, too.) Apart from the pleasure of seeing Tom Felton, Devon Murray, Alfred Enoch, Sitara Shah (and waving through the door at Bonnie Wright, who was busy being tutored), I had a great time talking to Dan and Matthew about books, Rupert about how his sisters never wind him up, Oliver and James about how difficult they find it to wind each other up, and Emma about Hermione's love life. Also met, and had a long chat, with Evanna Lynch (Luna), about whom there is only one possible thing to say: perfect.
The Rumours section has also been updated as well as the Extras section with a piece about the proliferation of skinny young woman in the media. Thanks to everyone who emailed us.

Hey!! I searched and the actress Sitara Shah was the one that played Parvati in PoA. What is she doing in OotP if that part was played by Shefali Chowdhury in Gof???

So who else here thinks that her editor will be getting reams and reams of paper mailed to them to pass on to JKR. I'm sure with all the fans in the world we could make sure she would never again run out of paper. With that aside, it's nice to see she's still able to enjoy herself and work on the book. She is just an amazing woman. I loved reading her little rant on girls calling eachother "fat". It was an interesting read and just once again shows her compassion for people in the world.

I didn't know people didn't like Evanna, but I haven't really been into the gossip as much as everyone else. If anyone minds telling why she was disliked.
I'm glad that Jo enjoys her as well. She always spoke about how Luna was one of her favorite character to write. I would only hope that the actress could bring justice to the character. She is one of my favorites in the books as well. I'm sure Evanna will be magnificant, especially if she has Jo's approval.

Well, if Rowling says she perfect for the part, then that means she's perfect for the part. Glad to hear it! I'll have to check out her site later.
