You didn't buy the one that said Cho Chang kills Voldemort after giving Ron a hummer in the prefects bathroom?
Cause I totally did.
Cacophony. That's pretty. What's it mean?

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I saw what was supposed to be scans of the epilogue, and I liked what I saw. If it was a fake, somebody has got more time on their hands than anyone should and has perfected the art of imitating field of focus.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
You didn't buy the one that said
Oh, except for that one. That one's totally accurate.
The epilogue scans looked real as far as looking like pages from a book, but they read like bad fanfic. I guess it's possible that JKR outsourced the last 5 pages of the book to a 13 year-old girl on LJ, but it doesn't seem likely.

COMPLETELY!
Is there a linky bob to the scans of the epilogue?

Huh, they read like Rowling, to me.

She just may be going in a direction that some folks would consider bad fanfic.

Well, HBP seemed like bad fanfic to me at times. I hope DH is less focused on teen romance.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I LIKE teen romance, and a lot of HBP seemed like bad fanfic to me!

It's not like Harry liking Ginny and Ginny liking him back is a big surprise.

I can't even.
Robin, I saw your post about the Shetterley-Bull tour - I like both of them, her especially. Unfortunately, they don't seem to be coming east. sigh.
Todd, I asked Will in his LJ about an eastern swing to the tour and his answer was:
"Alas, not this year. I think in fairness, if we do another tour, it'll have to be the east coast equivalent of this one. Which would be heaps o' fun.
I like Will and Emma a lot, more so for having met them in person a couple of times over the years. May their new books thrive!
(not much hope of this post not being drowned in Harry Potter chat, not that there's anything wrong with that)
