Rowling: 'The idea came from you'
Reuters is one of the first to report on the tea party held earlier today by author J.K. Rowling for roughly 200 primary school students."During a question-and-answer session, the writer spoke about her favorite authors as a child and her love of Christmas, and revealed she has had a fear of spiders ever since she was young."
Rowling went on to say that the idea to publish Beedle the Bard came from Potter fans:
"There was quite a lot of high feeling from Harry Potter fans that only someone who had two million pounds could afford to read the book. I thought 'fair point', so I thought 'I'll publish it and then the charity can have that money too'."

Aw that's so sweet! I love her!
I like her as a author because the way the she writes and as a person for the information she has gives us. Good Luck in any of the new ways of her life.
I guess that makes sense.
