J.K. Rowling told
the audience of her tea party today at the National Library of Scotland in Edinburgh that she had written her latest book, Beedle the Bard, because the fans wanted her to and that she also has a fear of spiders, just like Ron Weasley.
You can also read a report from MuggleNet, as well as some photos from outside the event where author Ian Rankin, Matthew Lewis, Devon Murray, and Evanna Lynch were in attendance.

Some reviews are now online of the book.

These are about the best pictures that I've seen of her in a long time. She really looks good.
I can't tell for sure but it looks like she is wearing a replica of the Sorcerers Stone around her neck. Also that's a very peculular looking ring on her right hand. I can't quite make out what it is.
Blessings! Hecate3fold!

Great to see the fun and excitement for a book again. Hard to believe that it was only 1 1/2 years ago that the final book came out. Wonder if any more books will be on tap.

I remember the interview that she gave for 'Chamber of Secrets'. When asked what was the scariest part of the movie, she'd quipped, "The spiders!"
