'I was thinking of putting a section on my website about all the alleged inspirations and birthplaces of Potter'
Photo: FilmMagic In a rare instance of not using her social-media pages to rewrite the backstories of beloved literary characters , over the past few days J.K. Rowling has been offering up her fact-checking services for some of the most prevalent origin stories and myths about the Harry Potter franchise.
“It’s beautiful and I wish I had visited it,” she said, “but it has nothing to do with Hogwarts!” Rowling also asserted that an old street in York, England, wasn’t the inspiration for Diagon Alley, despite the city’s repeated claims that it is. And about that lucky parking meter in Edinburgh? “My favorite bit of utter nonsense about Potter landmarks is still this one,” Rowling quipped. “I can’t drive.
“A truthful tour of HP ‘inspirations’ would involve a stationery guide pointing a stick at a picture of my head,” she added, “which would be zero fun and nobody would buy tickets.” Expelliarmus to the lies!
