Completing the blurb

David quoted Amy quoted Heidi, quoting Jo through the static:

 > dies ... sorry," 
 
Oh, this is a real *find,* this thing is!  Lessee . . .  What would 
I write on an index card if I were an internationally famous and 
filthy rich author? 

*************

I cannot *believe* I am pregnant.  How on earth did that happen?  
Bloody hell! How am I supposed to write a book when I spend half my 
time in the loo?  Why on earth does this darn book have to be THIRTY-
EIGHT CHAPTERS anyway; these people are so desparate for a new book 
that they'd be happy to get 38 *pages.*  You know what?  I MIGHT 
CHANGE the book to be 38 pages, just to spite everyone who is so 
darn sure it will be the LONGEST VOLUME.  I'll cut the part where 
RON murders Hermione by tampering with her BROOM -- that would half 
crucify me to write anyway.  I'll deep-six the part where Dumbledore 
is SACKED by a renegade HOUSE-ELF, and there won't even *be* a NEW 
TEACHER -- that'll save loads of time.  While I'm at it, nobody -- 
and I mean *nobody* -- DIES.  

And I'm not even SORRY.
