I've seen this story before, so don't let the Feb 29 date fool you into thinking it is fresh. However, this IS the first time I've seen it in any popular press arena. And, while there are pros and cons, fors and againsts, let me just say one thing that should put this all into perspective:
SHE SHOULD BE GRATEFUL SHE HAS THIS PROBLEM!
Much like no-name bands under no-name labels wish their music had the notoriety to be passed around in the underground MP3 community, normal authors would KILL to have books written about their books.
You know what that means? That means you are in the spotlight. You win. Take a bow, and buy a boat.
And, seeing as though JK is the first MF to become a billionaire because of her writing, I think she must have just lost sight of where she is, how far she's come, and what elite company she shares history with.
Please, Ms. Rowling, just accept it. You are rich and famous. Your books have inspired millions of people. And, you won't get ALL the money from it, like so many in history.
