3. SOUNDBITE: (English): J.K. Rowling, Author of Harry Potter books:
"To an extent the pressure is off I suppose because it is the last book, so I feel quite liberated, I can just resolve the story now, and it's fun. Fun in a way that it hasn't been before, finally I am doing my resolution, I think some people will loathe it and some will love it, that's how it should be."

5. SOUNDBITE: (English): J.K. Rowling, Author of Harry Potter books:
"I understand why an author would kill a character from the point of view of not allowing other to continue writing after the original author is dead. I don't always enjoy killing my characters. I didn't enjoy killing the character at the end of book 6. I am being discrete just in case anyone hasn't finished the book, I really didn't enjoy doing that, but I had been planning that for years, so as John says it wasn't quite as poignant as you might imagine, Id already done my grieving when I actually came to write it."
6. SOUNDBITE: (English): J.K. Rowling, Author of Harry Potter books:
"What will I miss most about the Harry Potter series? Everything I've loved writing it, and I will miss it hugely. But I always planned seven books and I planned this particular ending, and If I get through it and do what I meant to do, when I first envisaged the story then I will be proud. Then I will go through a mourning period, then I will have to think of something else to write."

HARRY POTTER FANS, THE END IS NEAR
"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," the last of seven instalments from J.K. Rowling's mega-selling international phenomenon, will be published on July 21st at midnight, of course, a time to be marked by celebrations and more than a few tears, as Rowling wraps up the magical adventures of the boy wizard, his friends and his enemies.
The author posted a brief announcement on her website on Thursday (February 1st), followed soon by releases from her British publisher, Bloomsbury, and US publisher, Scholastic Inc.  Readers immediately rejoiced, with dozens of ecstatic messages posted on the Potter fan site, www.theleakycauldron.com, within minutes of the announcement.
Potter readers have a lot to look forward to, and to fear. Rowling's stories have darkened considerably over the years and the author has said two characters will be killed off in Book 7.
"I don't always enjoy killing my characters. I didn't enjoy killing the character who died at the end of Book 6," Rowling said during a reading last summer at Radio City Music Hall, declining to name that person in case someone had yet to finish the book.
"I really didn't enjoy doing that but I had been planning that for years so it wasn't quite as poignant as you might imagine. I'd already done my grieving when I actually came to write it."
The fifth film, "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix," is scheduled to come out July 21 2007, just eight days before the final book's release.
