J.K. Rowling Writes Harry Potter Spinoff
Despite several press conferences and comments that she would like to branch out into writing new things, J.K. Rowling has completed the first Harry Potter spinoff. So much for the integrity of writing.
The book – an illustrated collection of fairy stories – is The Tales of Beedle the Bard, and only seven copies will be printed. One will be auctioned for charity, the others given away as gifts. Rowling drew the illustrations in the book herself and provided the handwriting for five of its stories. The book is mentioned in Rowling’s last Harry novel, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

Since you didn’t do your research, do a google search for “Quidditch Through the Ages” and “Fantastics Beast and Where to Find Them.” These are spin-offs that have been published before, and all proceeds have gone to charity. I’m not sure how helping others ruins her integrity. How much ad revenue do you donate?
