J.K Rowling...
Does anyone else think she's rather pathetic as a person? With all the crying she did about how she couldn't kill off Harry and then whined about how difficult it was to raise her kids on her own for like...3 years?
I think she needs to grow a pair, as a writer and as a person.

She actually said 'Splitting with Harry was worse than divorcing my husband' or something along those lines; i'm a passonate writer too and i love all my characters but i end the story and sometimes kill them off anyway.

Look I don't have any problem with gay people, but I have never heard anything so ridiculous in my life as when Rowling stated at a Potter gathering that Dumbledore was gay and in love with Grindelwald!
There is nothing actually written in the books to even suggest that, but she just wanted to use her characters to make a political point.

As a person I really don't like J.K. but I do ike the Harry Potter books. The ending to book seven though. I mean seriously she should of got rid of him! She is pathetic yes. I like all the other books though.

I think Harry was more than a simple book character for her. Harry drastically changed her life more than she can ever imagine.

i never knew she had cried and all that sorta stuff. i have read a few of the books and to be honest i have never really thought alot about Rowling i dont really have an interest in her life at all, all i know is that she writes the books and thats it. she can do whateveer she wants with her life

Why don't you try spending at least ten years of your life dedicated to writing stories about one character that saved you from poverty, making tons of money, and overall becoming your entire life and raising three kids while poor?
Just saying, you may be a little bit out of your league in complaining about this Pugz. I don't think you need to have any kids to know that raising three on your own would be a tad bit difficult. Also, if you don't care about your writing Pugz, you'll never be good. You don't have to cry over it, but it makes sense since Harry Potter made JK's life massively better and made her everything she is today and now she's turning away from him.
A little understanding is in order here.

She's not pathetic, her life wasn't brilliant before she wrote Harry Potter, bordering on poverty etc, she started off writing Harry Potter on the serviettes in a cafe for crying out loud! She also has/had children to raise - not exactly the easiest thing in the world. The success of the books made her richer than the Queen, so she's bound to feel a bit emotional when the books end.
