Merry Christmas! J.K. Rowling Releasing 12 New Harry Potter Surprises in December for the Holidays

 

Merry Christmas! J.K. Rowling Releasing 12 New Harry Potter Surprises in December for the Holidays


Sorry, partridge in a pear tree. You've been bumped.
J.K. Rowling just gifted her rabid fans with the best present of all: 12 new Harry Potter items for the 12 days of Christmas.
Starting Dec. 12, every day at 1 p.m. London time, "brand new writing by J.K. Rowling and even a new potion or two" will pop up on the fan-tastic Pottermore website, read a newsletter sent to members today.
At least some of the new bits and bobs will focus on Draco Malfoy, Harry's platinum-haired, Slytherin-residing school rival, and then...surprise after surprise will unfold!

Somehow, we're starting to get the feeling that Rowling is having a lot more trouble detaching herself from the Hogwarts world than she thought she would as she embarked on new, more general-audience fiction.
She released an in-depth treatise on the villainous Dolores Umbridge on Halloween, also via Pottermore, and Rita Skeeter's "coverage" of the Quidditch World Cup, published back in July, also served as a much-needed fix for those jonesing for more on how Harry, Ron and Hermione turned out.
