J.K. Rowling has announced a sequel to the Harry Potter novels! The catch: It's 800 words long. Per this CNN article, the story is part of a charity effort in which famous authors–including Margaret Atwood and Nick Hornby–pen original works on cards to be auctioned off in aid of a dyslexia charity. This follows the handwritten work Tales Of Beedle The Bard, which Rowling auctioned for almost four million dollars.
Does anyone else remember that SNL sketch where Jon Lovitz, playing Picasso, paid his way simply by scribbling on napkins?
