Rowling's Nightmares

.
JK Rowling's hard at work finishing up the seventh and final Harry Potter book... maybe too hard? This is her writing on her website:

"For years now, people have asked me whether I ever dream that I am 'in' Harry's world.

The answer was 'no' until a few nights ago, when I had an epic dream in which I was, simultaneously, Harry and the narrator.

I was searching for a Horcrux in a gigantic, crowded hall which bore no resemblance to the Great Hall as I imagine it.

As the narrator I knew perfectly well that the Horcrux was jammed in a hidden nook in the fireplace, while as Harry I was searching for it in all kinds of other places, while trying to make the people around me say lines I had pre-arranged for them.

Meanwhile waiters and waitresses who work in the real cafe in which I have written huge parts of book seven roamed around me as though on stilts, all of them at last 15 feet high.

Perhaps I should cut back on the caffeine?"
