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.

I love reading all these entries! But it would be brilliant if she ccould update more frequently. Obviously, her schedule would be chockerblock, but still...
She's got a good sense of humour and in that entry she showed how she could just slip into the situation and be good for an individual person. I reckon that's what makes her such a good author.

It's wonderful that she's updating her site. Does anyone know when the WOMBAT scores will be out? Also, I wouldn't mind her not updating the site as long as she keeps writing on book 7! ^..^

I am SOOO glad that Luna is remaining as Luna. (The Fact that Rowling seems to think Evanna is working out shows the former DOUTERS just how important it is NOT to judge a book by its cover.) Especially if the cover dosnt quite seem to fit the book. Now with my post being done I think I just might have to knock on over to the rumoure section of JK Rowlings site.

That is so cool. I'm glad she updated her site. It must be really nice for her to talk to the cast of Harry Potter. It would bring her characters to life in a way. I get excited when I read news like this. I'm looking forward to the next book and movie even more now.

How neat! That's cool on how Rowling got to visit the actors on the OotP set! Yeah, most of the cast are older teenagers now, so of course, they would be taller than her!! It's funny how we all grow up.....
