I think he's like JKR in that he can write good characters but is shit at everything else. I strongly suspect that both of them might be related and maybe even the same person.

Why is she so revered?
In my opinion, her prose style, heavy on cliche, makes no demands upon her readers. In an arbitrarily chosen single page--page 4--of the first Harry Potter book, I count seven cliches, all of the "stretch his legs" variety.

Friendly reminder that the author of some of the most iconic books of all time is a woman.

I´ve notice some things that make the difference between male and female authors, for example, female authors tend to:

>Describe things in a mellow way
>Have soft narrative, even if it´s a book with an adult topic
>Write happy endings

Any other characteristics you noticed?

How many years until Harry Potter isn't relevant anymore? And what do you think will be the next big trend?

Within literary circles, is J.K. Rowling considered a good (not necessarily great) writer?

>Most successful author of our age
>Always imitated, never equalled
>Almost single-handedly saved the act of "reading" from going extinct among the Millenial generation

How about /lit/ finally shows some love and respect for Ms. Rowling, hmmm?
