Jk Rowling is supposed to give a announcement on Wednesday but she didn't say what it is going to be about except that it isn't a new book. They just created a new site called Pottermore. So what do you think it is?

I think it might be a mmo rpg video game but that's just my guess.

I'd rather have a new harry potter series, than an MMORPG. I have a pretty good feeling that would fail.

I heard she was anouncing her secret as to how she wrote the Harry Potter books. Apparently she wore oven gloves and randomly hit a keyboard.

Look that the URL. It's obviously going to be something DracoxHarry related. :/

Well going by the name "Pottermore", it sounds to me like it isn't just a single project but rather they are planning to expand on the "Potterverse" in general though different types of media, such as Games, TV, and possibly more books and movies. In short I can see Harry Potter becoming what Star Wars is. Also even if Pottermore itself doesn't turn out to be what I said here I can still see it happening, there is way too much money to be made from the insanely large fanbase Harry Potter has for it to be ignored after Deathly Hallows p2.

I'll be listening with great interest. I'm reading the books for the first time ever, and I just finished the 6th book. I'm horribly addicted to HP at the moment. I can't wait to delve into the Deathly Hallows!

I don't know what it will be, but I'm super excited! But honestly J.K. Rowling could release her dry cleaning receipts and I'd be hanging on every word. :P

Her next book will be an erotic book starring Hermione, this movie willl be taken to the big screen uncut and Hermione will be once again played by Emma Watson.

Now that would be a hell of announcement :D

Oh but it was fun! Jo did this scavenger hunt thing that gave us the letters in POTTERMORE and then more owls keep appearing on Youtube and all the HP fangirls are having flashbacks to when the books were still coming out and :3

I'm hoping for something big. I don't want the series to die out, and I figure it wont consider the money it makes. I'd love an MMO, I'd love a new book (maybe something to do with a different series), I'd love a TV show (almost seems logical. Look for Game of Thrones for an example), I'd enjoy the encyclopedia she has been promising but wouldn't get too excited over that, and I'd be disappointed if it was something web based like a Harry Potter social networking type deal.

I hope its in the same universe, just hopefully not involving Harry's and everyone's [spoiler] children [/spoiler] I want it to be set in the time of Dumbledore's schooldays, so we can learn more about his relationship with Grindelwald (some slash involved perhaps :P)

I wanted it to be another book :(

I suppose the only logical answer is that the Wizarding World exists, and they're using JKR as a spokes-person for their invasion and decimation of Muggle Earth, which'll begin as soon as the announcement has finished.

My problem with that is it wouldn't actually fit with the fiction lol. It's hinted pretty heavily that Dumbledore and Grindelwald were "involved", while Remus and Sirius probably weren't :P (but really. I wouldn't mind a marauders storyline, I don't actually want any slash in it :cry: )

Ha, yeah I was (mostly) joking. :P I know Dumbledore was definitely gay although I think Jo has said that the "relationship" was pretty one-sided, hero worship from baby Dumbledore, that Grindelwald kind of manipulated. Sirius/Remus was a HUGE fandom ship until Remus got together with Tonks in book 6(?). Ihave only recently come to enjoy slash pairings (I blame the Dragon Age fandom entirely :P) so though I am late to the party I finally understand the appeal (though you are right it is most likely not canon). To be honest my biggest hope for this announcement is an online HP encyclopedia, but as I said I don't really care because anything announced by Jo is alright with me. :)

Yeah I should probably stop getting my hopes up, seeing as the last major announcement turned out to be that Themepark (which, FYI is the most awesome place I have ever visited), but I am excited nonetheless. I just really miss her writing style.

Love WWoHP!! I went in October and I'm going back in about three weeks (Leakycon!). I'm even going to the after-hours park event, it's going to be rad. Catered, so unlimited butterbeer, pumpkin juice, food, etc., and only open to 2000 tickets. :D But yeah I miss her style too. I would LOVE another HP book. LOVE. Or any book written by her, really.

I would actually welcome a new Harry Potter book. I just love reading about the HP universe. Unfortunately it's not going to be that, but I don't have a clue what it could be. I sort of doubt that it is a MMO video game. I'd be too busy with the Old Republic to play that anyway.

If a Harry Potter MMO came out, I would SO play it, even buy it and pay for it if it had a fee. I'm a bit of a Harry Potter geek myself...
