Lisa: Do you think Rowling will have spin-offs, do you think she'll 
write  a whole new series based on an upcoming new first year?"
<snipped by Jim>

Carol:  Actually, I've already answered this question in a previous 
post, but I doubt that anyone would be surprised by my answer even if 
I hadn't. Mr. Mysterious himself, Severus Snape, of course. (And 
Constance Vigilance will say Quirrell, am I right?)"

Jim F:
My vote: neither. JKR won't write another series; she has a family 
life that takes her time and makes her happy.  She probably had no 
concept of how overwhelming this was going to be.  <snip>

Carol:
For the record, I quite agree that she won't have spin-offs. I was
answering the second part of Lisa's question (snipped here) about who
I would like her to write about if she did. OTOH, since she's written
FB and the book on quidditch (title escapes me), there's some hope
that she'll actually write "Hogwarts: A History." If she does, it'll
have a built-in market.

But again, I was just having fun with the question of who I'd *like*
to see her write about if she told the life story of another character
(or, in an even more unlikely event, retold the whole series from
another perspective).
