MuggleNet staffer Andy helps out JKR
Somehow we missed this one earlier today. Among the updates JK Rowling published on her site this morning included an update to the Rubbish Bin. An article that MuggleNet Encyclopedia manager Andy wrote up, supporting Jo's article on teenage girls, has caught the attention of Jo:
Jo also updated her diary regarding her complaint about not being able to find writing paper in Edinburgh, and the hilarious results.
I thought of listing all the many characters in the Harry Potter books who are on the plumper side, to demonstrate what a very diverse group of personalities they are, how they include several of my most important, admirable and lovable characters, and how 'overweight' in no way equates to 'bad' in my fictional world... but Andy from Mugglenet has done it for me. Andy, I really owe you, because I've used the time you saved me to type up half a chapter instead!
What an honor for Andy to have helped save Jo some time in writing Book 7! You can check out more of his great work over at the MuggleNet Encyclopedia.Jo also updated her diary regarding her complaint about not being able to find writing paper in Edinburgh, and the hilarious results.

That is really cool. I can't wait to see that half a chapter that Jo wrote. Book 7 is going to be fantastic!
What is that about house elfs? I didn't get it. I'm not to sure about this new posting system either.
Sweet!! Good job Andy!!
That's, like... awesome. You are a benefit to society, Andy. Book 7 shall come out all the faster. And I really liked reading your contradictory essay thingy. The one that guy wrote in the magazine made me angry. I was like, "Power to Jo," when I was reading yours. GO ANDY! I am your biggest fan now. ~The Grey Lady~
k, i'm gettin worried, no updates on muggle net for day!!
Hey, I quite like the new posting look. It seems a bit clearer to read than the grey background. It's more intergrated with the whole site.
thank you andy! now the book is gonna be done earlyer! :)
Way to go Andy. Way to Go Mugglenet Opinion Section!...and I echo all the wonderful things that people have already said about you. If you helped out Jo-we all owe you one!
love the part about the house elves.. hermione would have cringed!
Now we're one step closer to having Book 7!
that's pretty much amazing.
Andy, I'm so very proud of you. You have SINGLEHANDEDLY brought Book 7 closer to fruition...you must be rewarded. I declare that May 10th shall henceforth be known as Andy Day.
Well done Andy! And Jo is pretty cool. Indeed.
ah I laughed myself silly when I read the part about the house-elves...
I just saw this news reported on Sky News in the UK, they even mentioned MuggleNet! GO ANDY!
Wow! what an honour! Bet Andy's happy!-[:-Happy being the understatment of the centuary!]
The article was amzing, and now we're half a chapter closer to Book 7. Go Andy!
All this hype over one moron's comments against Jo, which, as Andy pointed out, was not even written by someone who knows Jo's work or read any of her books. Why is that guy getting so much media attention? Just exactly what is it that he's trying to defend? I think he was just trying to drum up more readers for his column and he did. He got the attention that he was looking for. I don't think Jo needs to defend her opinion in the least. It was written on HER site in HER journal - she's entitle...
The house elf thing was funny but lol I don't understand exactly what she meant.
way to go Andy. :)
yee-yeah, woot woot for andy! that is so cool! maybe youll get to meet her...
YAY Andy! Book 7 can be out sooner now then it might have been because of you!!!
God bless you Andy! I thought your article was great before but now you’ve helped out Jo, and got us half a chapter, well let’s just say you rock!
That's great and all, Andy! I'm glad Jo updated her website...but HELP! I got a new computer, and for some reason I can't click on ANY of the clues! I can go between places on her desk, but I can't click on the eggshells or the pen, or the spider, or the eraser/revealer....Can anybody help me?
Or at least point me in the right direction, please? I'd rather not ask my brother, because he still thinks I'm nuts for being a HP fan
Yay!! Go Andy!!
Yay Andy!! now book 7th might come out that much sooner thanks to you!
