JK Rowling


“Harry Potter” Author J.K.Rowling has just launched a new website called “Pottermore.”
The website is left without an explanation and only reveals two owls perched on branches with the message “Coming soon….”
According to Calleycat.com, Rowling’s spokeswoman explained that it’s not another Harry Potter book and said she cannot reveal any more details.
“Fans will have to keep an eye on the website. It will be launching soon,” she said.
Potter fans can keep updated through Twitter and YouTube. Rowling set up a Pottermore Twitter account that already has over 33,000 followers. Along with a Twitter, she also established a Pottermore countdown on YouTube. Check out the Pottermore YouTube countdown.
Just finding the website was quite the challenge. According to Digitalspy.com, Ten different Potter websites were given coordinates. Each coordinate pertained to a different letter in the Pottermore name, all which would be pieced together to reveal the website’s address.
The new site comes in the midst of the final “Harry Potter” movie installment. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 is set to hit theatres on July 15th. The plot is described on IMdb:
“With three of Voldemort’s six horcruxes destroyed, Harry, Ron and Hermione must find the rest. One of them is a fabled Cup that once belonged to Helga Hufflepuff, one of the founders of Hogwarts, but the other two remain mysteries.” They’re so many questions, all which “Must be answered for ultimate Battle of Hogwarts, where the final showdown between Harry and the Dark Lord will determine the fate of both the wizarding and muggle worlds for the rest of eternity.”
