K.

I guess you need a last name, but I don't really want to say mine....


Okay, K. Smith.


Does it sound like a girl's name or a boys name?
How much? Like 43% girls name and 47% guys name.


And if it sounds like one gender, would you be less inclined to read it? Why or why not? What gender are you?

Hedwig's death caught me completely by surprise. I was not expecting it, and so early in the book!

I really don't understand why Rowling had to kill off Hedwig.

I heard it's about vampires, but that doesn't really help. Also, how long is each book? And how many books are there? What did you think of it?

Thanks!

Well, I'm pretty sure that I'm gonna fail my senior year and not be able to go to college with my bad grades. So I'm gonna drop out and become a writer, since I'm pretty good at writing stories and poems and stuff. Do I need to gruadate to become a writer? Cause I've met people younger than me and they already got their books published, and they didn't even finish school yet, lol.

Mine would have to be Jodi Picoult, I love her work. I'm reading Mercy at the minute but her best book would have to have been My Sisters Keeper.
