Should authors be allowed to discuss this deeply detailed about a characters personal life? Especially about literature meant for kids?
>Stephen King admits Roland from The Dark Tower series likes to be pegged
Who cares

They shouldn't not be allowed but they should know better than to engage in that kind of nonsense.

>Harry potter books are full of murder
>Wizards and witches dropping dead like flies, many of them children
>End of the world stuff every academic year
A tweet merely implying a sexual position is worse than all that murder?
Morality in 2016

that's not real, is it?
Its dumb but since only hacks who write shit books do it who cares? Just because pop culture cares doesn't mean I should.

It's called flogging a dead horse until you're mashing bloody pulp with your bare hands
If she's gonna keep that potter money pouring in, she has to pander as hard as she can to her mostly progressive fanbase

yes
They dont matter all that much so who cares
Rowling is a philistine writing for philistines to read.
I wrote a 90k word fanfiction based on Harry's homosexual relationship with Dumbledore. I had over 500k readers and a bunch of people asked me to continue writing but I was really scared I was becoming legitimately gay.

dude
its okay to be gay
change the names, take out the magic, and have another go at 50 Shades

This. If your story is popular enough, why not profit off it?
I doubt you'll get any shit Rowling and who cares if people think you're gay? You can be rich, you fruitcake.

pick one and only one
D-Dumbledore-kun?
I feel like authors should always have to pick a pseudonym, where the name functions only to link their other works together.
Maybe if they become really renowned it can be linked to their actual person as well, so we can find out more about absolute legends like Goethe and Kafka, but otherwise not.
