Now RSFJenny here:
I saw this on  the TLC site too, but personally, I'm skeptical, and here's 
why: 

Whenever an uncomfirmed rumor comes out like this out of the blue it helps to 
look at it from this perspective: could this be referring to the old book 
(ie. "old news")?
In this case, the answer is a definite yes.
The first draft was probably done in around January because I think we heard 
the publishing date in March.  Then, the minimal but lasting injury - Harry's 
hand.  The scar that Harry thinks will probably never fade fits nicely into 
this description.

I think someone got some undated info and assumed it was referring to book 6, 
when, in fact, it's old news.
