J. K. Rowling Plans 8th Book For Harry post #1  quote:



Jul 1 2004


HARRY Potter author JK Rowling has revealed plans to write an eighth book.

Rowling had always said she would write just seven Harry Potter books, one for every school year at Hogwarts.

But she has decided she may write another book for charity after she finishes the series using all the ideas she has had to leave out of books so far.

The book would be an encyclopaedia of the wizarding world, including plots and background about the characters she has had to leave out of the five books she has already written.

She said: 'I think it highly unlikely I'll write more novels.

'I've got enough story for seven books and I never meant to carry the story beyond the end of book seven.

'I might do an eighth book for charity, a kind of encyclopaedia for the world so I could use all the extra material that's not in the books ... we'll see.'

Rowling has already written two mini books for charity three years ago she released two Hogwarts textbooks.

The books, called Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them and Quidditch Through The Ages, revealed details about the magical world to excited fans.

Rowling also revealed she has written parts of novels for adults.

But she admitted: 'None of it is published, which is no loss I assure you.'

I am glad she won't write anymore books. She always said it would be the 7 books and that would be all. If she wrote more it wouldn't be that special anymore. I would feel she's selling out for the money and/or attention and that seems wrong.

I like the idea of a 8th book......That would seem pretty cool....It could show how Harry lives his life after Hoqwarts and if he evr leaves the Dursleys who he would be living with....Or something else.......But I like the HP books alot and I wouldn't want them to end....Never!...
