8th Harry Potter? OH HELL NO!

There's been buzz that JK Rowling might write MORE Harry Potter books - which she mentioned on Oprah, but has been busted by Daniel Radcliffe.

As a fan of the series, I would hope there wouldn't be anymore Harry Potter books - I thought the epilogue in Deathly Hallows was pretty clear in telling readers what happened to Harry, Ron and Hermione (at least). She probably would be able to get away with at least a novella if that epilogue wasn't written.

I don't understand why people want to read about what goes on in Harry's happily-ever-after life, which I feel would read like the Adrian Mole series, just less pathetic (maybe).

As to what happened to the minor characters, well, that's not hard to find as well...

(From JK Rowling.com)
If she wrote a spinoff series still based in the Potter universe, who could she write about? Exactly. If she writes about the kids, then it's no different from Enid Blyton's school series.

The only Harry Potter-related book I want out of Ms Rowling would be the rumoured encyclopedia - who's with me?
