J.K Rowling 

Telling a story around one group of people and then much later telling the same story to the same group of people but changing major details and treating it like they were always there.
Harry: “The last time you told this story you said you took her home but now you’re saying you ate her ass? Bruh stop J.K Rowling.”

The J.K Rowling Effect 

When an author tries to make their content more relatable by outright stating lore instead of including it in their media.
Joe: Do you watch TANKMEN?
Candice: No, It was ruined by the J.K Rowling Effect

J.K.Rowling 

Well known transphobe who wants credit for putting representation in her books without actually putting much in, saying that characters were gay after the books came out. WHEN IT WASN'T RELEVANT, HELPFUL OR REPRESENTATION - AS SHE THOUGHT IT WAS - AND NOBODY WAS THINKING ABOUT DUMBLEDORE'S SEX LIFE. And naming an Asian character Cho Chang, do I need to explain why that is a problem? Also don't get me started on the house elves.

And on a similar topic STOP SEXUALISING DRACO MALFOY, HE IS A CHILD THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE SERIES IT DOES NOT MATTER IF YOU ARE A CHILD AS WELL SEXUALISING HIM IS WEIRD AND BAD. YOU CAN HAVE A CRUSH ON HIM (don't know why you would because he calls Hermione a muggle, which in that world is I believe equivalent to the n-word in that universe, which is one of the reasons Hermione should've been black) BUT SEXUALISING HIM, A CHILD, IS GROSS.

Thank you for your time.
Person: J.K.Rowling is a horrible person, who doesn't take criticism and learn.

J.K. Rowling 

A very talented woman. Her life is an insiprational rags to riches story. She wrote "Harry Potter and the Philosipher's Stone," or "Sorcerer's Stone" in America, and it was an immediate success. She has got on to write five more since then, and plans to finish up with the seventh her in the next few years. Her books are quite spectacular, with content for all ages. Yet it is written simply, so that children can enjoy them. What is truly amazing is that she had planned the story through book seven before she even started book 1.
J.K. Rowling has given me a truly wonderful gift, one to which I am eternally grateful.
