    So I came across the info that Stephan King was the actual author behind the Harry Potter books. He met with J. K. Rowling a while back and presented the idea to Rowling. Rowling thought it would be a good idea, but said she would stray from it. Some years later, J.K. Rowling actually wrote the first book. Stephan King confronted her about it, she denied it... Word of mouth.

    Take that harry potter fans.... That sucks though.

    My dog ate a twizzler out of my butt. Proof that Stephan King created Harry Potter.

    I actually heard this before, he supposedly was going to sue her, but it was difficult with the British laws. By the time he had the lawsuit worked out, she had already built her fortune, so he decided to drop it.

    It's Stephen King, not Stephan. You have the wrong man.

    I can't decide what to do with this thread.

    Meh, having an idea for a novel and actually writing the novel are two very different things. Which is why only novels are copyrightable not ideas for novels.

    Pulling string out of a dog's butt is more fun.

    A dog pulling string out of my butt while I'm eating hot pockets is even more fun.

    Stephen King wrote everything. He even created the Simpsons, who coincidentally have also done everything.
