About 24 minutes after bookstores opened on the East Coast, after 
deciding to avoid reading anything with spoilers in it for at least a 
few hours, after realizing that even though Book 5 won't be out for a 
while yet, I will get a good JKR fix today, between the books and the 
chats, I just sat here in front of my computer, smiling.
And then I popped around the web to find urls of press about the new 
books for all of you.

Bridget Jones add-on by helen fielding (penny, you getting this one 
too?))

Also, supposedly, Comic Relief UK is auctioning off a few copies of 
the Schoolbooks, signed by JKR...haven't found an URL yet, though. 

And briefly OTopically, an URL for an article about The Phantom 
Tollbooth is at 
http://www.salon.com/books/int/2001/03/12/juster/index.html, just to 
make sure everyone knows that today is completely magical.
