There are some very interesting tidbits on Sirius, Dumbledore, Snape, the Ron/Hermione ship, R.A.B., Peeves, Voldemort, and why Draco is skilled at Occlumency. The third and final installment of the interview will go up on Friday.

I haven't finished reading yet, but get this
JKR: "You know, that was the last Quidditch match. I knew as I wrote it that it was the last time I was going to be doing a Quidditch match."
So is it really over? Is Hogwarts really closed for book 7?

Not necessarily. Quidditch has been cancelled before (for the Triwizard Tournament). The school could be open, but Quidditch deemed to dangerous because there would be too many students out in the open.

Well if Harry isn't going back (I hope he is) he won't be playing even if he does he has other things to do with his time. I seem to remember somewhere McG said Dumbledore had foreseen then end of Hoggies :'(

I have been reading the interviews (thanks for the links  ). But now for my usual silly question time. What are shippers. They go on about them quite a lot. Are they just HP worshippers or something more specific? I think McG just meant that DD was willing to shut the school in COS so was aware it was possible. |

There should be some action at Hogwarts, for sure; that's where Hagrid and Grawp will be, as well as (regardless of other speculations) Dumbledore's portrait. I think we will see some resolution of the Trelawney/Firenze thread. And perhaps there's some more uses for the pensieve. Without Hogwarts, I can't see how JKR will bring in the Ravenclaw connection. That's not saying that the next book will be subtitled "Year 7 at Hogwarts." I see the school as a place that the main student characters who are distracted with other things can come for intensive tutoring, but you won't have a regular school schedule for them. Not everybody will be out on quests, and Hogwarts is still a good deal for all of the lower class students. Without Dumby to add his unique protections, though, you won't see many large group activities like Quidditch. There's got to be some way to set up trips to Hogsmeade; we'll certainly see more of Abelard and maybe Rosmerta. Of course we've been wrong before.  |

Sharon they are people that put two charaters together. Usually in fan fics but often just there views. For example you can tell I am a massive Lupin/Tonks shipper. But there are also Lupin/Sirius shippers out there (who are now bitterly dissapointed). Get it?
Well JK said there would definately have to be a new DADA teacher next year. So that would indicate that Hoggies would be open in some copasity. However they will also need a new Transfig teacher and head of Gryffindor house and McG will be rather busy me thinks. I feel there is too much at Hoggies to avoid it completely there was obviously something Tom Riddle wanted there, maybe there is something still in the chamber of secrets.
