odds are
NOT

Though she's going to announce some new work milking more money out of the potterverse, likely some kind of prequel involving the younger selves of the older characters of the saga.

The Hogwarts years weren't the only days of Harry's life. As an auror I'm sure he has had more than one adventure since he polished off old Snake-face. And the second gen kids have their own lives to live. The fun may well continue.

And if you don't like Harry, at least don't whine about him.

If it doesn't involve hot paparazzi bush-shots of Emma Watson, who cares?

Well, she swore high and low she would write no more harry potter, so if she writes more stuff about him, I'll have toilet paper printed with her pic made.

and I may be wrong, but I'm really having the feeling it will be a prequel rather than sequel.

and I'm fully entitled to whine after I bought all 7 books and never finished N°7 because her writing style and ability to produce a page turner deteriorated as the series advanced.

there have been bush shots of emma watson?

I knew that girl had grown to be a rather vulgar specimen, but really, too short dresses and no panties really don't mix with papparazzi.

Well I love the Harry Potter books, so if there's more then that's good news as far as I'm concerned. Certainly the Potter books were not High Art or Great Literature. But if you took them for what the were, they were great fun. Although Harry himself was probably the least interesting character in the books.
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.

But those letters are not silent.

They're just waiting their turn.

The books matured with the kids. Some of the readers, not so much.

They're meant to be read as a person goes from age 11 to age 18, though I doubt an eleven year old would have the patience to wait for that timing.

Nah, she started to take herself too seriously.

Considering that she had the entire plot laid out in before book one was written, I doubt that. However, if you have examples...
