Dug into the back posts recently?
You really should, it's amazing what you can find.

Like a report of a Dec. 2000 JKR reading and Q & A session 
that doesn't seem to be included in Quick-Quotes.

Pam Scruton, post 6494 - "Jo in Glasgow" reported:

1. GoF chap. 9 "The Dark Mark" had been re-written *13* times!
(Whoo! Something significant being carefully hidden maybe? Dig
into the canon, folks!)

2. Durmstrang is in the "very north of Norway/Sweden"

3. Beauxbatons is near Cannes

4. May well kill off more characters, though not the Dursleys - she
enjoys torturing them! 
(Might rule out some HBP and late-developing wizard/witch theories
involving Dudders and Petunia.)

5. Lockhart based on real individual - who is probably too dim to 
realise it.

6. Only sold the film rights so that "she could see a Quidditch match"!

I've never heard mention of this event before and with the recent
announcement of the up-coming Edinburgh book-fest do, we need
to get somebody in there to bring back  the news - so far as I can find
out it isn't being broadcast.
