Þetta er “charity” eða reyndar samkoma sem var 2 ágúst síðast liðin, þar sem Rowling las upp úr bók sinni og svaraði spurningum hjá fólki.
Ég er með nokkrar spurningar/svör sem eru birtar á aðalsíðu Mugglenet.com og einnig tvær slóðir til gamans um Harry, Carrie, and Garp Night 2. (Myndir og solleiðis).
Um Harry, Carrie, and Garp Night2:

Spurningar:
-Other than Harry, Jo would most want to bring Hagrid into the real world.
- There's more to Aunt Petunia than meets the eye, and we'll find out what's unique about her in Book 7.
- Don't expect Dumbledore to pull a Gandalf.
- Dumbledore IS really dead. “Everyone needs to move through the five stages of grief” and get past his death. She also apologizes to DumbledoreIsNotDead.com for ruining the purpose of their site. (æ, það mátti reyna.)
- Jo's future after Potter includes taking a long break from writing. She also plans to release a young children's book (currently half-written) that is shorter than any Potter novel. (JEIJ! hún mun allavega gera fleirri bækur en bara 7 ;O) )
- The librarians in the Potter novels have to be evil, otherwise the students would have nice librarians to help them find all the information they need. “Hermione wouldn't have to do any work!”
- Author Salman Rushdie, along with his son, came to ask, after a detailed theory, if Snape is good or bad. Jo replied that “your opinion was correct.” Rushdie's opinion, unfortunately, was hard to follow. (æ, en samt fínt að bíða og vona að hann sé með oss)
- After being asked if there was one question fans should have asked by now but haven't, Jo couldn't reference any question in particular.
- While taking a shower before the reading today, Jo said that she had come up with a different title for Book 7 that would work better than her current title. No word on which title will be used, though.
- Stephen King said he was scared of Death Eaters, to which Jo replied, “I scared Stephen King.”
- Moderator Soledad O'Brien asked the three authors who from their books they'd invite to dinner. Stephen immediately said he'd invite Harry and Hermione.
- While Jo is listing the characters who she'd invite to dinner, she names the trio but then pauses. The crowd begins to shout out other characters, but Jo responds, “I'm the only one who knows who lives through the series,” accidentally implying that she could only list characters who make it through the final book. Her final two choices (after realizing what she said) were Dumbledore and Hagrid. (þá vitum við allavega að það verður ekki Ron eða Hermione ;O) jee)
