J K Rowling’s agent has told The Bookseller there are no immediate plans to publish her children’s book in progress, discussed in interview on Tuesday evening on Simon Mayo’s BBC Radio 2 Drivetime show.
“I sometimes genuinely worry that I’ll die before writing them all out”.
In an interview with BBC radio, Rowling said that she had written part of a children’s book that she really loved, E!Online reports. And at the point where we meet him in the very first book, he is absolutely on his uppers, in a way that I too have experienced, in that he is as poor as you can be without being homeless. She shared, “There were things I had in my head about what happened 19 years [after Voldemort’s demise]”.
But while Rowling has recently been focusing on novels for grown-ups, she said she’s got something coming for her younger fans.
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child’s world premiere is on July 30, 2016, and tickets for the play may be purchased via harrypottertheplay.com.
