GEORGE STRAIT A Farewell Tour Tickets- xxxx
India Knight, a novelist and columnist for the Sunday Times, tweeted on 9 July xxxx that she had been reading The Cuckoo's Calling and thought it was good for a debut novel. In response, a tweeter with the name Jude Callegari said that the author was "Rowling". Knight responded "EH?", but got no further reply.[141] Knight notified Richard Brooks, arts editor of the Sunday Times, who began his own investigation.[141][142] After discovering that Rowling and Galbraith had the same agent and editor, he sent the books for linguistic analysis which found similarities, and subsequently contacted Rowling's agent who confirmed it was Rowling's pseudonym.[142] Within days of Rowling being revealed as the true author, sales of the book rose by xxxx percent,[141] and Little Brown printed an additional 140,000 copies to meet the increase in demand.[143] As of 18 June xxxx, a signed copy of the first edition sold for US$4,453 (£2,950), while an unsold signed first-edition copy was being offered for $6,188 (£3,950).[137]Soon after the revelation, Brooks pondered whether Jude Callegari could have been Rowling herself as part of wider speculation that the entire affair had been a publicity stunt. Some also noted that many of the writers who had initially praised the book, such as Alex Bray or Val McDermid, were within Rowling's circle of acquaintances; however, both vociferously denied any knowledge of Rowling's authorship.[141] Judith "Jude" Callegari was revealed to be the best-friend of the wife of Chris Gossage, a partner within Russells Solicitors, Rowling's legal representatives.[147][148] Rowling released a statement saying, "To say that I am disappointed is an understatement. I had assumed that I could expect total confidentiality from Russells, a reputable professional firm, and I feel very angry that my trust turned out to be misplaced";[147] Russells apologised "unreservedly" for the leak, confirming it was not part of a marketing stunt and revealed that "the disclosure was made in confidence to someone he [Gossage] trusted implicitly".[143] Rowling has accepted a charitable donation from Russells, which includes reimbursement of her legal costs and a payment to the Soldiers' Charity.[149]In xxxx, Rowling revealed that she had finished writing a few short stories and another children's book (a "political fairy story") about a monster, aimed at a younger audience than Harry Potter readers.[150] In July xxxx, Rowling said that she wants to dedicate "lots" of her time to her family, but is currently "sort of writing two things", one for children and the other for adults.[151] She did not give any details about the two projects but did state that she was excited because the two book situation reminded her of writing the Philosopher's Stone, explaining how she was then writing two books until Harry took over.[152]In November xxxx, Rowling said that she was working on another book, a "half-finished book for children that I think will probably be the next thing I publish".[153]In March xxxx, Rowling revealed in an interview that she had returned to writing in Edinburgh cafés, intent on composing a new novel for children. "I will continue writing for children because that's what I enjoy", she told The Daily Telegraph. "I am very good at finding a suitable café; I blend into the crowd and, of course, I don't sit in the middle of the bar staring all around me."[154] Rowling also confirmed that her "political fairy tale" for children was nearing completion.[155]In September xxxx, Rowling stated that she was currently working on two books for readership younger than Harry Potter.[24] She maintained in an interview with The Guardian that one of those two books is the "political fairy tale" she spoke of previously, although she expects to release the other book as her next project.[23] At the Cheltenham Literature Festival on 6 October xxxx she said that she had a couple of things on her laptop aimed at a slightly younger age group than Harry Potter which are "nearly done".[156]Writing on her website in xxxx after her authorship of The Cuckoo's Calling became public, Rowling said, "I've just finished the sequel and we expect it to be published next year."[157]As regards the possibility of an eighth Harry Potter book, she has said, "I can't say I'll never write another book about that world just because I think, what do I know, in ten years' time I might want to return to it but I think it's unlikely."[158] In October xxxx she stated that her future work was unlikely to be in the fantasy genre, explaining, "I think probably I've done my fantasy ... it would be incredibly difficult to go out and create another world that didn't in some way overlap with Harry's or maybe borrow a little too much from Harry."[159] On 1 October xxxx, in an interview with Oprah Winfrey, Rowling stated a new book on the saga might happen.[160]In xxxx, Rowling stated that she plans to write an encyclopedia of Harry Potter's wizarding world consisting of various unpublished material and notes.[161] Any profits from such a book would be given to charity.[162] During a news conference at Hollywood's Kodak Theatre in xxxx, Rowling, when asked how the encyclopedia was coming along, said, "It's not coming along, and I haven't started writing it. I never said it was the next thing I'd do."[163] At the end of xxxx, Rowling said that the encyclopaedia could take up to ten years to complete, stating "There is no point in doing it unless it is amazing. The last thing I want to do is to rush something out".[84]In June xxxx, Rowling announced that future Harry Potter projects, and all electronic downloads, would be concentrated in a new website, called Pottermore.[164] The site includes 18,000 words of additional information on characters, places and objects in the Harry Potter universe.[165] On 13 April xxxx, following the website's release, Rowling confirmed that she had started work on the encyclopedia and would donate all royalties to charity as she had previously planned.[166] In May xxxx, she said, "I have been enjoying sharing information about Harry's world on Pottermore for free, and don't have any firm plans to publish it in book form."[166]In xxxx, Rowling established the Volant Charitable Trust, which uses its annual budget of £5.1 million to combat poverty and social inequality. The fund also gives to organisations that aid children, one parent families, and multiple sclerosis research.[167] Rowling said, "I think you have a moral responsibility when you've been given far more than you need, to do wise things with it and give intelligently."[151]Rowling, once a single parent herself, is now president of the charity Gingerbread (originally One Parent Families), having already become their first Ambassador in xxxx.[168][169] Rowling collaborated with Sarah Brown to write a book of children's stories to aid One Parent Families.[170]In xxxx, the UK anti-poverty fundraiser Comic Relief asked three best-selling British authors ? cookery writer and TV presenter Delia Smith, Bridget Jones creator Helen Fielding, and Rowling ? to submit booklets related to their most famous works for publication.[171] Rowling's two booklets, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and Quidditch Through the Ages, are ostensibly facsimiles of books found in the Hogwarts library. Since going on sale in March xxxx, the books have raised £15.7 million ($30 million) for the fund. The £10.8 million ($20 million) they have raised outside the UK have been channelled into a newly created International Fund for Children and Young People in Crisis.[172] In xxxx Rowling contributed a foreword to Magic, an anthology of fiction published by Bloomsbury Publishing, helping to raise money for the National Council for One Parent Families.[173]In xxxx, Rowling and MEP Emma Nicholson founded the Children's High Level Group (now Lumos).[174] In January xxxx, Rowling went to Bucharest to highlight the use of caged beds in mental institutions for children.[175] To further support the CHLG, Rowling auctioned one of seven handwritten and illustrated copies of The Tales of Beedle the Bard, a series of fairy tales referred to in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. The book was purchased for £1.95 million by on-line bookseller Amazon.com on 13 December xxxx, becoming the most expensive modern book ever sold at auction.[176] Rowling commented, "This will mean so much to children in desperate need of help. It means Christmas has come early to me."[176][177] Rowling gave away the remaining six copies to those who have a close connection with the Harry Potter books.[176] In xxxx, Rowling agreed to publish the book with the proceeds going to Lumos.[122] On 1 June xxxx (International Children's Day), Lumos launched an annual initiative ? Light a Birthday Candle for Lumos.[178] In November xxxx, Rowling handed over all earnings from the sale of The Tales of Beedle the Bard, totaling nearly £25 million. Additional donations from unnamed private donors are believed to total £5.4 million.[179]In July xxxx, Rowling was featured at the xxxx Summer Olympics opening ceremony in London where she read a few lines from J.M. Barrie's Peter Pan as part of a tribute to Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital. An inflatable representation of Lord Voldemort and other children's literary characters accompanied her reading.[180]Rowling has contributed money and support for research and treatment of multiple sclerosis, from which her mother suffered before her death in xxxx. In xxxx, Rowling contributed a substantial sum toward the creation of a new Centre for Regenerative Medicine at Edinburgh University, later named the Anne Rowling Regenerative Neurology Clinic.[181] In xxxx she donated a further £10 million to the centre.[182] For reasons unknown, Scotland, Rowling's country of adoption, has the highest rate of multiple sclerosis in the world. In xxxx, Rowling took part in a campaign to establish a national standard of care for MS sufferers.[183] In April xxxx, she announced that she was withdrawing her support for Multiple Sclerosis Society Scotland, citing her inability to resolve an ongoing feud between the organisation
