Finwitch:

Nah - it'd be - as they ARE published later than Harry's adventures --
maybe, like the Quibbler, a form to publish things about Harry? Say 
Harry met J.K. Rowling on a train and told her the whole story.

Finwitch:

Well, they'd probably figure that Muggles will think it's fiction. Or 
maybe they did wipe her, which explains her writer's block, but Harry 
paid her a second visit... how would we know?

Finwitch:

Well, if what I speculated above goes on, well... Besides, maybe it 
*would* be time for wizards to reunite Muggle Society. The Ministry 
wouldn't like it, of course - as the Ministry *exists* to hide 
Wizardkind from Muggles...
