The Radio Times recently published additional quotes from the new JK Rowling/Stephen Fry interview that will broadcast this Saturday, December 10 on BBC Radio 4. From the interview:
SF Is it really true that you've got it [the end of the story] all planned out?
JKR Yes, I do know what's going to happen in the end. And occasionally I get cold shivers when someone guesses at something that's very close, and then I panic and I think "Oh, is it very obvious?" and then someone says something that's so off the wall that I think "No, it's clearly not that obvious!"
So much that happens in [book] six relates to what happens in [book] seven. In six, although there is an ending that could be seen as definitive in one sense, you very strongly feel the plot is not over this time and it will continue. It's an odd feeling, for the first time I'm very aware that I'm finishing.
The interview will air from 9:00 to 9:30am GMT, and we'll have an audio file available for download soon afterwards. Thanks, TLC!
