Title: THE TITLE!!!
Post by: sweetlikepoison on June 27, 2004, 12:59:01 AM
Ok, read this (it was on MuggleNet):
Earlier today, someone got behind the door at JKRowling.com without hacking, and was greeted by a surprise. As we can see from the date, this information isn't supposed to be released until the first of July. It took the person to a book, on the left page was the dark mark, and on the right page was written the following:

1st July 2004
Erm... it is perhaps time for me to reveal
the title of Book 6! I am nearing completion of the
first draft and have definitely decided upon a
title. I had numerous possibilities in mind, but
as I wrote, I realized that only one did the book
justice.
The more clever Potter fans may recognize that
the title relates directly to both 'Order of the
Phoenix' and 'Chamber of Secrets.' I will be
highly amused if one of you can guess exactly
what's going on!
On a side note, the length of the book is
growing so fast, I could swear Filius has put an
Engorgement Charm on it; an editor's nightmare!
I promised myself not to exceed the length of
'Order of the Phoenix,' but every day that passes
makes that undertaking more difficult.
Incidentally, I have much more work ahead.
Alas, the time has come! Here is the reward for
you lot that so diligently figured out all the puzzles
on the site. If you scroll down to the bottom of
this page, I will reveal to you the title of Book 6!
...
The title of Book 6 is:
Harry Potter and the Pillar of Storgé
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

(Storgé is pronounced stor-gee and means parental love in greek)

YAY!! Do you think that really is it? Go to mugglenet if you want to read the whole thing...I left a little out.

My television news said that J.K announced the other day that it WAS called Harry Potter and the Half BLood Prince...interesting...Mabe she`s writing about Harry or Voldemort as the 'prince'...

(where`d you find it on the site K?)

I found the title at JK's site.  and here's what she hads now put oout, or at least a cople quotes gfrom her...

"The 'Pillar of Storgé' was never my title, and I did not change it at the eleventh hour because I was 'found out' (I nearly fell off my chair giggling when I read this).

Anyway: if you continue to exercise patience, you will find that the Do Not Disturb Door opens again... and again... giving you further hints about book six. But as a little bonus, and compensation for having been messed around by Mr. or Ms. Storgé, I shall tell you one thing without making you shift any bricks at all: the HBP is neither Harry nor Voldemort. And that's all I'm saying on THAT subject until the book's published."

JK said, Harry Potter and the Pillar of Storgé, was a rumor not
Hary POtter and the  Half Blood Prince.

And what about the part that goes "Pillar Of Storge, man! For crying out loud!
