only for the few
Rowling by now so mindset to control her created universe that she no longer write for the general millionswide public but for the happy and wealthy few?

I always thought the period between ch 1 and ch 2 of Philosophers Stone was the most irreal part of the whole story: unless you believe that child abuse for ten years going unnoticed by the schoolnurse is standard. So elaborating that part is the last I was waiting for. stop fidling around in the name of charity, lady, and start the real work you keep dangling around, meaning your Encyclopedia.

What am I nagging about?

She wrote an 800 letter piece about Harry Potter in the years before Hogwarts.
A good moment to ventilate my utter dislike with that same period as being more unbelievable and with less connection to reality then the flight of a hippogryph.

Obvious I am not the only one who as not that much pleased with the news:

You know what? As more time goes on, the more JK makes me HATE charities. >_< . . . I used to be for them (and technically still am I suppose), but she keeps writing things exclusively for them, and it's going to drive me mad. Are WE ever going to be able to read this? And the Tales of Beedle the Bard? etc. Or are the loyal fans who have been reading these books and watching these movies, who aren't billionaires just not good enough for her? o_O

Man, like you I'd SO want to read that!!! We can't keep being lucky that people like Amazon buy it and then give us summaries. (Pending, I guess, a hope that they'll get to release bits of it as time passes.) But I sincerely hope someone will share some of this!!!

It seems to be a Sirius & James story,
not particular my most favorite characters,

maybe JKR took to heart the contradiction,
that is spite of telling us or the protagonist of the story,
how good those fellows were, she never showed it.

If she now is gonna show us a bit more and solid about these jerks, again it is outside the all-available canon, meaning the books that reach the stores.

It irritates the hell out of me.

Not my favourite guys either, but I'd still really like to read it! *sigh*
