J.K. Rowling Talks About Future Harry Potter Books – But Don’t Get Too Excited, Now

Specifically, she says:

I could definitely write and eight, ninth, tenth.  I could.  Easily.

But then she says:

I’m not going to say I won’t.  I don’t think I will.  I loved writing those books.  I loved writing them.  I feel I am done, but you never know.

We take this as a very author-y way of saying that you are done with a story, but you love the world and the characters, so who’s to say that you won’t one day have an idea that becomes another book.

In other words: don’t hold your breath.

Susana Polo thought she'd get her Creative Writing degree from Oberlin, work a crap job, and fake it until she made it into comics. Instead she stumbled into a great job: founding and running this very website (she's Editor at Large now, very fancy). She's spoken at events like Geek Girl Con, New York Comic Con, and Comic Book City Con, wants to get a Batwoman tattoo and write a graphic novel, and one of her canine teeth is in backwards.
