Contains spoilers! This post is for those who aren't going to read the final installment of the Harry Potter series, Deathly Hallows, but nevertheless want to know what happens. At this point in time I don't know much about what happens either but I'm sure kind folk who are in the know will contribute in the comments section below.

The final book in the Harry Potter series has a bit of a weird title - Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I'm sure there's an anagram in there somewhere, though I'm not sure what. Anyway, it's right at the top of the preorder charts on Amazon already, even though its release date is not until July 21st. It's strange then that J K Rowling's works are up there among the books most unfinished by readers...

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
- 223 pages.
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
- 251 pages.
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
- 320 pages.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
- 636 pages.
And Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix is going to be 38 chapters, a third longer than the Goblet of Fire. I'm beginning to see a trend here. Is this a conspiracy? Am I going to eventually shell out 20 for book 6, 50 for book 7 and be forced to chuck out my complete Encyclopaedia Britannica so that I've got enough shelf space?

Was it in "Finding Forrester" that the budding young author is told to write as much as he could so that he'd find out what was actually good writing? I'm pretty sure that J.K. Rowling also said something similar about her lead up to creating the Harry Potter books. So, for the aspiring writers among you, here's something to try out, "NaNoWriMo."
