This is what comes with fame and fortune and boy wizards. I can only predict that this is going to be the way things will work until the end of time because, let's face it, it's very unlikely that any other book series in the next few decades is going to come anywhere near this sort of phenomenon. Others will come near it, but nothing will surpass it for years to come, probably for much longer than anyone would have imagined. I can confidently say if it ever happens, I will have been long dead for sure.

However, I have to hand it to the people accusing JK for having big balls. Seriously, did it actually sound like a good idea at any point in the developing stages of the lawsuit? "Let's sue JK Rowling." Yeah. OK. Good for you.

And why does the Why I Write section in PW always feature people I've never heard of? Dude!
