What is Next for Harry Potter and the World Affected by the Boy Who Lived?

Chapter Chapter 13 in Harry Potter, 2008, pp 144-160 from Palgrave Macmillan
Abstract:
Abstract J.K. Rowling made it clear from the time the first book in the Harry Potter series was published that there would be seven books in the series and no more. However, Rowling has written two related books, Quidditch Through the Ages and Fantastic Beasts & Where to Find Them, with the proceeds from sales going to charity. In an interview in July 2007, just after the release of the final book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, J.K. Rowling suggested that she may write an encyclopedia of magic, wherein she would provide more details about all things Harry Potter, with proceeds again going to charity. Rowling stated that she has countless notes and pieces of the Harry Potter story that were cut from the final books, which she could easily use to create a book of histories and fates of Harry Potter characters and more. Fans continue to clamor for more Harry Potter, so an encyclopedia by Rowling would undoubtedly be a bestseller and drive the Harry Potter buzz to a frenzy again.
