J.K. Rowling: “Preserve the Secrecy”

J.K. Rowling has made a small update to her official website asking everyone who “calls themselves a ‘Potter’ fan” to help keep the plot of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows from being spoiled:

We are almost there! As launch night looms, let’s all, please, ignore the misinformation popping up on the web and in the press on the plot of ‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows’. I’d like to ask everyone who calls themselves a ‘Potter’ fan to help preserve the secrecy of the plot for all those who are looking forward to reading the book at the same time on publication day. In a very short time you will know EVERYTHING!

We, of course, support Jo’s statement and ask all of our visitors to avoid spreading information about Deathly Hallows in our comments. With the book release being less than three days away, there’s no point in spoiling it now.

Instead, talk about the latest episode of SpongeBob or perhaps the upcoming Hairspray film. If you need any other topic ideas, please e-mail us: I need something better to do than spoil the book for everyone three days prior to the release.
