<<I think there will be other books now that we know the 
prophecy was not fulfilled. I think there will be about 
ten books because it will take Harry some time to get 
his skills standard. What's you guys opinion?>>
   
  What do you mean prophecy not fulfilled. The prophecy was about Harry beating Voldemort, not about bringing peace to the world. The larger is perhaps an impossibility not only in real life, but in most fantasy fiction. Even C.S. Lewis only bought peace to Narnia by destorying Narnia. 
   
  No, there will not be more books at least by JKR, though JKR was smart by keeping an opening for more. Hopefully there will be the Encyclopdia though; which will probably have some short stories in the same way that Fantastic Beast does.
   
  However there is the slim possibility that she might write something else in this universe but not as she has said in interviews  for at least ten years, but it is interesting that DH ends in 2017; which is exactly ten years from now, which means if she released something it would be another book probably mostly about Al and Rose.
   
  But in the meantime there is some fantastic fan fiction out there, a small portion of it actually pubished on fansites by people who otherwise are professional writers and sometimes have actually published real novels.Or you can tell, have the talent to do so.
   
  I.m hoping that for charity some day she will have her publishers publish an anthology of these selected by her and perhaps the staff of the better fanfic sites. The only problem is that the best fan fiction tends to be even darker then the real Harry Potter and much more adult. The romance in the better fanfiction by rule is better then HP and much more 'mature' (and I'm talking about the clean stuff)   
   
  But disregard me, I'm a prefect at www.harrypotterfanfiction and therefore a bit obsessed with fanfiction as well as writing my own. But there are fanfiction writers who are close to or better then JKR in writng ability if not quite storytelling ability. 
   
  And yes there are many awful fics by teenagers, but you would be suprised by how many teenagers write fairly decently although you can tell that they are still learning. 
   
  I won't list them here, since I don't think it is not part of the scope of the list. But if anyone is interesred e-mail me and I'll send you a list of some of the better ones. 
   
  PS I wonder what really twisted fan fiction Steven King could write? Maybe Carrie was a witch after-all? LOL!.
