| | J.K.Rowling not on social networking websites
J.K.Rowling has updated her official site to clarify that she doesn't have accounts on any social networking websites, including but not limited to, MySpace, Bebo and Facebook. Quote:
No, sorry, not even one of them, though they do seem to lead very exciting lives, these fake J K Rowlings. I like to imagine them partying with all my imaginary friends (‘a close friend confided…’) in some bright and shiny alternative universe. But meanwhile, on planet earth, the dull human J K Rowling hasn’t got, and has never had, a profile on MySpace, Bebo or any similar site.

I'd find it strange if she did have one to tell the truth

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Aurelie Rylen Sixth Year | Fiyero ♥ | RED VINES! | FOR NARNIAAAAAAAAAAA | "Always." ♥| SupermegafoxyAWESOMEhot! No I never really thought she would do that. I know I wouldn't if I were her. wouldn't it be strange if she was on some random online game like gaia or runescape, or Pirates of the Caribbean online, and you interacted with her and never knew...

I think it's a shame people try to pose as celebrities online. A lot of people dream every day of meeting to or just talking to their favorite celebrity. I think it's cruel to trick someone into believing one of their biggest dreams is coming true.
And I agree, IF she did have an account somewhere, which she just said she didn't....but IF...I doubt she would have it to where it was easily found.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Elizabeth | Mrs. Tony Stark HA! JK would never get on Facebook! It's past her generation...
It would be really weird to see her on there anyway...
I'm glad she's not affiliated with any of the networking sites anyway.
I think they're past her.

Good on her, she stands for what she wants rather than to what everyone else wants her to do! Must Admit though, it would be nice to to talk to her...there are so many questions i want to ask!
