Well, I'm not J.K Rowling, but I can answer these for you.

It is okay to say "said" alot, but you can change it around once in awhile.

"Hermione! Stop being smart!" Ron exclaimed.

"Harry, you should tell Dumbledore about this...." Hermione warned.


As for J.K: Here's an interview I found: From an interesting interview with the lady herself:

"'Is JK Rowling your real name or is it your 'writers' name?'

"My real name is Joanne Rowling. My publishers wanted another initial, so I gave myself my favourite grandmother's name as a middle name, 'Kathleen'."
