I hope when all is said and done and the seventh book is safely
published, that JKR makes available her notes. Her background notes
would be most interesting.
I would particularly like to see a critical analysis done on each
book. By that I mean a book that shows the phases each book went
through on its way to being published, also the changes between
editions.
I would love to read her first draft of PS/SS. She said somewhere
that she cut it down to please the publisher. What got cut?
Obviously at least this scene. It was the original first three
chapters that caught her agent's eye. Was this scene one of them?
I would like to see the original drafts of GoF that she had to
completely rewrite to fill the plot hole. She said she had to
rewrite Chapter 9 thirteen times. I hope she didn't throw all that
away.
Let's pray my hope is not in vain. :)
