I suppose this seems simple, but think about it. 
Writing is supposed to be an enjoyable experience,
and hopefully the writing of the Harry Potter books is
for JKR.  Having to write with a whole bunch of calendars 
nearby would be quite annoying, and having to 
constantly figure out what happens at what date.<<<<


Me: 
I write sometimes and yeah sometimes things just hit you and you go 
with the flow and write your little heart out. Though I've never 
tried getting any of my writing published isn't it the job of the 
editor to check all of that stuff out. That's why it takes so long 
for it to come out from the time she hands in her work. 

Though just throwing it out there. Maybe the dates just aren't 
supposed to add up. Yeah it sounds a little crazy, but you never 
know. JKR has surprised us before.
