VERY lucky, I am surprised she could even be bothered to write anymore after she hit her billionth pound. But that's why I love Jo. She cares about her readers.
Although, she does like to sue a lot. And I am sick of her argument with Steven Vander Ark. Although, he should be ashamed of himself. He cannot call himself a 'fan'.

I know! She's sue-crazy! It really bugs me.

She is.
But still... you have to love her. If it weren't for her I would probably be dead by now.

Well, of course. Can you imagine if the HP books never existed? (I think we've been over this before...)

And Jo's writing has improved so much since teh first. She an write with much more emotion and such now. Her writing styles was childish at first, though that is understandable - it was originally aimed at 10-12 year olds.

Funny how that kind of changed, isn't it? And I do agree..she did get better. Still not fantastic, as we've discussed, but better.

Well, it had to change when the films began, because all sorts of ages became interested.
Re: Bassie Versus Bago! - bambigoddess - 12-05-2008 08:28 PM
Yes. I like the "age group" it's "aimed" at now.

Me too, the series would not have been quite so successful if it wasn't for the movies.
