JK Rowling announced that she'll start the last book in 2006.

START??!???!?!?! Why haven't the bobbies chained her to a word processor with bread and water until she cranks that baby out? START? That means we'll get it around October-December 2006, maybe mid 2007!

Jebus. I'll be old by then.

For 2006 will be the year when I write the final book in the Harry Potter series. I contemplate the task with mingled feelings of excitement and dread, because I can't wait to get started, to tell the final part of the story and, at last, to answer all the questions (will I ever answer all of the questions? Let's aim for most of the questions); and yet it will all be over at last and I can't quite imagine life without Harry.

hmmmmmm.

I'm surprised she is not taking off more time than that. She took time off to spend it with her new baby. Kind of like she did after Goblet of Fire.
