J.K. Rowling talks in depth for the first time about her writing

J.K. Rowling is often asked questions by fans and budding writers about her writing process: where she writes, how she writes, her inspiration and her research, how a book comes about, from the germ of an idea to the editing process and eventual publication.

For the first time, J.K. Rowling has responded to those questions, discussing openly and in depth about her writing including Harry Potter, her other children’s books The Ickabog and The Christmas Pig, as well as writing as Robert Galbraith, the Cormoran Strike crime fiction series.

The On Writing series will consist of three episodes, watch the first one here.

Beth Interesting. I'm especially taken by your comments about The Casual Vacancy. I'm working up a paper about that book in relation to Middlemarch. "Commonplace tragedies"! Thank you.

Wow, that sounds like a very intriguing paper. I'd be interested in giving it a read when you've published.

I can actually. She denied that trans people were killed and research about them was destroyed during the holocaust.
