Maybe its a general term

Judging by the look of the owls, it may be some sort of animated series, that'd be neat as hell

i think it might actually be a place to host fan fiction to rival fanfiction.net which comprises of mostly harry potter fan stories

oh god no, but this seems like a real possibility though. Maybe it'll be like her favorite ones and they will be canonized maybe

"On entering, you choose a magic username and begin your experience," Sony confirmed. "As you move through the chapters, you can read and share exclusive writing from JK Rowling, and, just as Harry joins Hogwarts, so can you. You visit Diagon Alley, get sorted into a house, and cast spells and mix potions to help your house compete for the House Cup."

she borrows elements from more talented fantasy writers
she was the stephenie meyer of the nineties and noughties.


right no one has ever claimed she's a brilliant writer, but her storybook world is the best of them all. so shove a quaffle up your ass
