| | JKR to write another kids book?
The Times newspaper has quoted segments from an interview with J.K.Rowling and Stephen Fry which will be aired by BBC Radio 4 at 9am on December 10th. In the quotes JKR refers to a book which she has worked on which is aimed at younger children.
"There is another book that's sort of smouldering in a cupboard that I quite like which is for slightly younger children. There are other things I'd like to write. But I'll need to find a good pseudonym."

I'd read everything she would write. And I think it's cool that she's thinking on writing other books.

Hmm... somehow I think that if she did write under a pseudonym, Harry Potter fans would make it their life's mission to find out what it is...

Heh. I like the comment about the pseudonym. Quite true I think. Using J.K. Rowling to publish under would give it such expectations...

That would be great! If she publishes it, I'll buy it!

| Well I can see why she would want to write under a pseudonym. She's not sure her next book will top HP. But you never know, her next book will challenge her as a writer. Can she continue producing best seller's or not? I wouldn't be surprised if she can. She's a great writer.
