Rowling Hints at Eighth Harry Potter Book
By Lewis Wallace
December 30, 2007
We already know J.K. Rowling can craft a franchise. Now the writer who turned the seven-book Harry Potter series into a money-minting machine reminds us that she's a master at generating publicity. Just two months after cranking up the PR machine with the revelation that Potter wizard Dumbledore was gay, she tells the Daily Mail she's considered revisiting the supposedly finished franchise.
"There have been times since finishing, weak moments, when I've said, 'Yeah, all right' to the eighth novel," she told the British publication. "If -- and it's a big if -- I ever write an eighth book, I doubt that Harry would be the central character. I feel I've already told his story. But these are big ifs. Let's give it 10 years."
Oh, and in the meantime, she's working on a "political fairy tale" and a novel for adults (in between superproductive brainstorming sessions with her publicity team).
