Potter prequel

Can't say I saw this coming .... J.K. Rowling wrote a prequel to the Boy who Will Kill Voldermort series for charity. And for the record, tis the charity bit I did not foresee, not the prequel bit.

I suppose claims by authors like Orson Scott Card is true; Rowling does want to be seen as a contributor to great literature and gain respect from her peers.

Extract from UPI
:

The BBC said the brief prequel, which will not be published, will go up for auction at Waterstone's Piccadilly store in London next month. Sotheby's will run the auction.
