Talk:Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Deathly Hallows/Epilogue

what if someone (ie, a 12 year old) continued the series but didn't regard the extra information that J.K.Rowling gave in post-book interviews? I know this to be true, two twelve year old authors (have previously had stories published) and wrote the eighth harry potter book which is over two hundred pages long. The twelve year olds wrote it entirely from the children's (James, Lily and Albus) point of view, and developed the characters' personalities. There are a few deaths, and weddings... it is an amusing story to read, especially taking into account the lack of knowledge about further occupations of Harry, Ron, Hermione and other main characters. These twelve year olds do not intend to infringe copyright, and have thoroughly enjoyed writing it: writing has become a hobby of theirs. Kind regards.


 * There are no limits on what fans can write ("fanfic"); however, such writings would not be part of canon and so would not be suitable for discussion in this particular location. There are a number of fan sites, my personal preference is Mugglenet, where that sort of thing can be published. Chazz (talk) 01:16, 8 November 2007 (UTC)

Just as a reminder: What is canon
We have noted on the project standards page that not everything that claims to be Potter belongs in this work. Specifically, we are limiting the scope of this work to those items directly written by J. K. Rowling in the Potter universe: the seven books, plus the three books written for charity, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (the book, not the film), Quidditch Through the Ages, and Tales of Beedle the Bard; and to a limited extent, the Pottermore website.

Specifically: A recent edit of the Epilogue page used material from the stage play Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. We note that this is not canon because it is not written by J. K. Rowling and so does not reflect her world view or writing abilities.
