a buggy eyed woman looked back at me in the supermarket line today and told me I looked like Harry Potter. I'm 6'3', wear conservative clothing, have a clean shaved head, and chose contacts over glasses.
what did she mean, /lit/?

I really wish her editors hadn't given her free reign, she was at her best when she was writing whimsical adventures of a schoolkid in a magical world. The series really went downhill when it started getting dark, gritty and "mature".

Daily remember J.K. Rowling plagiarized Ursula K. Le Guin

Her editors clearly stopped working after the third book. The word counts ballooned from 60k-80k to 200k-250k. And nothing was really gained.
