Dumbledore's Army discussion

I've always wondered what I would do if I got the chance to meet her. What would you do?

lol, but then wouldn't you just be a fan? A regular old boring fan, what would you do so that she would remember you?

Freak out and get her to sign all my HP books

I'd give her a mini speech about how epic she is, then ask her to sign things for me, i'd take pictures, and.. yeahh or maybe i'd say nothing because of the greatness of the meeting and just let it be, then ask her to sign thins :D

i would tell her how much im obsessed with her books, get her autograph on everything, and die.

lol

i'm with you!!

OH PLUS, TAKE HER BACK TO MY HOUSE

pass out!!!

lol

:P

I would ask her stuff tell her how many times I have read the books, how much I love them... I don't know, It would be so cool.

totally

I honestly don't think I would do anything if I met her. I don't she's gonna care about what I say to her, it would just be a waste of time. I know how much I love the books and admire her writing, she knows who ever likes HP admires her writing so why do I need to tell her that? If she had wanted to know she could have just asked for a list from a agent.

REGINA ARTIA

Arti, if that had something to do with you becoming a queen ...

um..maybe...okay, it means Queen Arti in Latin. I asked my teacher how to say it

you take latin???

we learn it yes

yes

that's really cool!

its boring

it's still cool! i thought Latin was a dead language.

i still think so

No, we have too much vocab

What I would do if I met JKR...I would freak out, get her autograph, freak out again, get a pic, freak out one last time, and then tell her that the epilougue in the last book was kind of a let down and that I am very dissapointed that the HP series is over...(if I had the guts...)

very true except not for the epislogue part

But what about the fact that there are no more awesome adventures, and that they go so far into the future....why not see what happens in the near future instead and have another book. Many of my friends and others I know are also disappointed aout it...

but still, she had to end them sometime

I know, but the way she ended it made me kinda upset.

With an epiloge?

yes, but I feel that the way the book itself ended left too many possibilities for new villians and such. If I were her, I would have taken advantage of that.

But I think she wanted o finish the series off. A good series can't go on and on. They have to end sometime

Yeah, but there should have been a little something more, like you see the trio the next summer...finally not having to worry about anything and just being regular teenage wizards...maybe Luna should be there too...

yah, but i like the wat she ended it. when they're grown ups

I would be speechless! take a picture and get my harry potter books sign :D

haha

haha, why do you think it's a let down. She infact stated "My original epilogue was very in detail and much more explaining but I didn't want there to be a "all loose ends tied feeling" in the end. Iwanted my readers to wonder"

J.K. Rowling s my FAVORITE author

well...most fans I know in real life, wanted the loose ends tied up. They wanted to know all the details that might frustrate other people. I must say I agree with the logic that sure, they can still wonder of what happens even later. But what about the details that'll keep the fans who's minds might not have the capability to wonder far enough to find the answer? Some people can't imagine much and all the extra details would be good for them.

MY RULE: NO INSULTING J.K. ROWLING

I'm not insulting her, I'm just saying that what she avoided might have been better for the series, because I've heard people saying that they wanted more details because they felt that there were too many possibilities left. They just wanted everything to be narrowed down a little bit more so it's easier to imagine.

I was wondering is it true she copyed from Lord of the Rngs?

At what part?

I'm one of those people who would have loved so much more detail. I'm glad that JKR released additional information about the characters in interviews after DH. Still, I would have preferred to see more in the epilogue. I know JKR originally had a more detailed epilogue, but got rid of it because it didn't "work very well as a piece of writing." I guess I can understand what she means, and I understand that she wanted to show Harry safe and content with his family, though I think the epilogue is overly sweet. Don't get me wrong - I would have been outraged if Harry married anyone except Ginny or if Ron married anyone except Hermione. It's not the lack of realism that bothers me. It's just the fairy-tale-like presentation.

Mugglenet has a list of specific similarities here

I don't like the word "copy" here. JKR drew on several sources to create her story, but she wove all these familiar elements together to create something that stands out as her own. All authors, to a certain extent, are influenced by other works. Tolkien himself was inspired by Norse mythology. In some cases (the Inheritance Cycle, the first PJ book etc.), too much heavy borrowing from other sources does occur, I think. But again, this is just my opinion.
