JKR voted Britain's 'greatest living writer'?

Oh, world, NO.

Yes, I love the books, and I live on fandom, but they're hardly literature, and it bothers me that the people who are voting have obviously not read much wider. I think children, especially, since they are the books main target audience, need to read things other than Harry Potter as well. Some of the messages in the books are great. Others, not so good. Adults, please be reading more widely so you can also introduce your children to other books as well.

Thank you! :) I do so adore Granny. I keep telling [livejournal.com profile] featherxquill that she would too, but does she listen?

Oh, I'll get there! I'm buried deeply in Tad Williams' 'Memory, Sorrow and Thorn' trilogy now, though. NEED BOOK TWO RIGHT NOW *salivates rabidly*.

You've obviously never read Tad Williams :)

(Acutally, muahaha, there's a character in it that reminded me for a moment of you.

Prince: The castle is under attack! We have to go now!

Vorzheva: But... I'm not wearing any makeup!

;) ;) )
