Until that day comes (not far in the future, I'm sure), how about a photograph of you with gummy bear cupcake in hand at Delicious?
Well, it's not quite a garret, but I guess in modern terms, it's close enough! I don't see anything that looks like a laptop in the picture...did she really write the first HP in long-hand?
Sharon. I can draw a caricature of you. But you must promise to publish along with your next book. lol! :-Þ
3rd chimp - according to the Sparks Notes website "Since she could afford neither a typewriter nor typing paper, Rowling wrote nearly all of her debut novel longhand on scraps of paper and bits of napkins."
