Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling on Wednesday launched a mysterious website dubbed Pottermore. Pottermore.com currently features simply a logo along with the message “coming soon” and Rowling’s signature.
An editor at the Potter site HPANA.com claims to have seen a sneak preview of the site, calling it “breathtaking in scope, detail and sheer beauty.” Meanwhile, a Twitter account also has been set up at
twitter.com/pottermore.

“The owls are gathering,” reads the mysterious note on a mock YouTube channel.
So what will the new site be? It won’t be the home of a new book, her spokeswoman told the Associated Press. However, it could be an online universe for all the other characters in the Potter world. Rowling has told fans she created backstories for most of the beloved side characters, much of which were never revealed in the novels. The name of the site: Pottermore.com sounds as if it could be a place to host those extra stories.

Who knows what pottermore is going to be? We're all guessing. But whatever it is, I trust that it will be brilliant, wonderful, fantastic, and most of all, a magical surprise.
I'm excited.
