J.K. Rowling is, in fact, a robot, and has the McDonald's logo stamped on her butt. She also gave birth to nine kittens and can communicate telepathically with string. This game is fun!
As a side rant, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was started as an underground parody comic by two guys, and that ended up taking over the '80's, so it's not like rags-to-riches stories don't happen.
Well, you have to give the chick credit for coming up with something like that. That takes a lot of imagination. Or crack. I'm not really sure which. :D
Well, obviously, her next target should be Stephen King! *S*
Loved this "defense" from a translator: "he sees consistent weaknesses in Rowling's writing that no group of hack writers would leave behind."
I mean, come on - it's not great literature. She wrote it. End of story!
Sure, it's true about the Nancy Drew books - but those were "individual" stories; HP has an arc and a destination - you can't hand that over to other authors that easily. *G*
When I read this bit: [...] the 36-year-old daughter of a prominent psychiatrist who's been decorated by King Harald [...] I pictured a Gilliamesque cartoon version of King Harald decorating an equally Gilliamesque psychiatrist. Yeah, I'm a silly person.
Anyway, this made me snort as much as when I read a recent article about the time Rowling lived in Portugal, in which her idiotic first husband first tried to portray himself as the poor victim of his unbalanced ex-wife (*snort*) and later as the real creative force behind Harry Potter (*SNORT*). I might be silly, but these people are deranged.
