AHHH I'm sad to actually see that she said it. She'd be willing to kill Harry. I suppose if you don't want people buying copies off her story but I would be completely crushed!

Finally some book 7 hints and news! Thank you, especially for this lovely tidbit ...
"and one of the characters that was supposed to be killed
was given a reprieve."
That better be Snape!

She would be willing to kill Harry in order to prevent future authors from writing sequels
This Makes Me Wonder If Shes Telling The Thruth or if she really plans on killing harry... hmmmm don't know
and
She has regretted writing some parts where she may have boxed herself in, earlier in the series
i think it's good that she admits it...
Can't wait to read the book when it comes out not sure if she'll have it ready in the year 7/7/07 is 376 day's away just can't wait... till we learn the title andmany other parts that we don't know yet...

This is so awesome! Its good that Jo is finally hveing Ron step out of Harry's shadow. I mean she gave him a few of his moments of sunshine but its good that he's gonna be in the spotlight for a bit.

Wow! That's so cool! I hope the seventh book will be as good as the others, no, make that better than the others. The last book should always be the greatest! I can't wait until it comes out.

That video was really great. What Jo really said was that she could understand why some authors have killed off their main character to prevent other authors from writing about them after their gone. I didn't hear her say she'd be willing to do it.

She's willing to kill Harry? The very fact that she mentions it makes me think that she isn't going to, or she wouldn't have said so. She's never given us a heads-up like that before.

Ack ack ack!!
I cannot wait for this book to come out...now I'm going to be theorizing on the two deaths (at least until the next piece of news comes out about the books!).
It seems like she was going to kill off someone, but then decided against it...I wonder who it was, or if we will ever know. Something keeps telling me it was Ron, although I don't know why.
I'm thinking Snape definitely dies, after we find out his reasons for his past behavior - more like for Harry to understand & not completely hate him as he does now (or at least at the end of book 6).

That is really interesting. I'm in shock that she was in denial of her popularity during the first three books. It's sad that she would kill Harry off though. Let's all promise not to write sequels to the books.

I'm so sad. Two more characters dead! It's so nerve-racking! I want to know who they are going to be! I hope she doesn't kill off good characters though. It'll be sad :( But I guess it's just how life goes. . .

Those are great facts to know. I really hope she doesn't kill too many good caracters, especially not Harry or Hermione or Ron or Lupin or Ginny ...(etc).l0l I kinda feel bad for her daughter having to put up with people's questions about the book. I'm sure she doesn't know any more than any one else. If she regrets writing certain things I think she should re-write the parts ... but that would take too long.
I'm sure every one will be pleased with the outcome of the books or atleast respect the decision the author has made.

Wow... this is really the first revealing information about the final book. She's really playing mind tricks. I am sad because she acknowledges main characters will die. I guess we already knew that, but to hear it makes it more real.
