J.K. Rowling Wrote A New Children's Book And Hid It In The Weirdest Place

Not in the cupboard under the stairs.

If there's one author out there who would take her birthday dress and turn it into amanuscript, it's J.K. Rowling - who had no absolutely qualms about scribbling over the outfit she worein honour of her 50th celebrations.

The Harry Potter author was hosting a birthday party on the theme of 'worst nightmares' when she stumbled across the realisation that nothing could everbe worse thanlosing an entire manuscript. Hence the print-based dress. Go figure.

In an interview withCNN, J.K Rowlingrevealed that the writing itself wasn't that much-longed for sequel to Harry Potter and was infact the mysterious political "fairtyale" for children that she's alreadyhinted aboutin previous interviews.

“The theme of my 50th birthday, which I held at Halloween, even though that’s not really my birthday, was come as your own private nightmare," she revealed. "And I went as a lost manuscript. And I wrote [most of it] over a dress.”

Standard magical behaviour, tbh.

Anyone hoping to get a glimpse of that potentially very lucrative dress will be surprised to hear of the weirdlocation it's currently hiding in:“I don’t know whether it will ever be published, but it’s actually hanging in a wardrobe.”

Sacrilege indeed. Can someone dothe rest of us squibs a favour and take a quick HD shot on the sly?
