• 10:12 @bjornfr :) Absolutely. #
• 10:18 @clanwilliam Then we'll catch you in the bar afterwards. :) #
• 10:19 @djelibeybi_meg Absolutely! Plan is to be back at the hotel / facility around 10:30 or so. #
• 10:20 @natural20 Oh, we know. :) Plan is to be back around 10-10:30. (Earlier for those who want to.) #
• 10:21 @clanwilliam ROFL. #
• 10:29 @burntcopper Sounds good. Just email to klatchian at owlspringspartnership dot com when you know for sure. #
• 10:40 Oh, cripes, like JKR needs *another* of these. bit.ly/9lkObo "Failure is an orphan, but success has a thousand fathers..." #
• 11:10 @_gmh_ No probs, you already have a dinner thing sorted! We're just suggesting an alternative 4 those who don't. #
• 11:15 @Julian__West First of all, I wouldn't want 2 sue JKR. She's a sweet lady. (We've exchanged notes a couple of times.) But also: the only ... #
• 11:16 @Julian__West ...significant similarity between the #YoungWizards and #HarryPotter books is that they both have young wizards in them. #
• 11:17 @Julian__West They are wildly different from each other in almost every possible way. So... why sue? Just because she could have read them? #
• 11:18 @Julian__West Yes, they were in print in the UK while she was writing. But if she ever read them (which I doubt) I see no signs of it. #
• 11:19 @Julian__West In short: my only plans re #JKR are (if she passes through Dublin) to have a pint with her and then take her shoe shopping. #
• 11:21 @Julian__West The other lawsuits... One was based on a pretty lame fraud. This new one reeks of venal bandwagonry. ... #
• 11:22 @Julian__West If I'm going to get rich, I want to do it on my own. #
• 11:24 @Julian__West Well, as usual, it seems obvious after someone else makes it work. :) (There's a name for that trope: I forget what it is.) #
• 11:28 @Julian__West Hmm, I wouldn't know about that. There have to be *some* writers still doing school stories. in the UK.. or some live ones. #
• 11:29 @Julian__West Oh, no, I'd happily sue someone who I had evidence had actually stolen from me. But Jo? Not the slightest chance. #
• 11:30 @Julian__West As for Nesbit, she was one of my great influences. But can anyone tell? :) #
• 11:31 @clanwilliam Yep. :) #
• 11:31 (sigh) Gotta go, big housecleaning day today. (waves at all) #
• 12:21 @Kinravip Got no choice, alas. But may be able 2 go 2 comics store in Dublin tomorrow or Fri. :) #
• 07:27 Check out our friend Paul singing Papageno last PM -- in 34C temps!! mms://stream2.orf.at/filehandler/oesterreich/201028/papageno_123373.wmv #
• 07:36 @caitlinchris They're starting to roll them out this year. "A Wizard of Mars" is already out for the Kindle. #
