JK Rowling Hints 8th Harry Potter Book

This in itself is not really movie news, but the possiblity is always there if JK Rowling decides to write an 8th book to the Harry Potter franchise. IESB.net, via The Daily Mail, is reporting that Rowling may be indeed considering putting together a new book.
One of her biggest fans – her 14-year-old daughter Jessica – has already put pressure on her to revisit the character.
And her younger children – David, four, and Mackenzie, two – are likely to join the clamour for another novel as they discover the Potter books.
However, if an eighth novel were to be written, Rowling concedes it is unlikely that Harry would be the central character.
At the time she thought she was ending a 17-year association with the boy wizard.
But in an interview with Time magazine, which put Rowling at No 3 in its Person Of The Year list, she said: "There have been times since finishing, weak moments, when I've said 'Yeah, all right' to the eighth novel."If - and it's a big if - I ever write an eighth book, I doubt that Harry would be the central character. I feel I've already told his story.
"But these are big ifs. Let's give it ten years."
I really like the Harry Potter franchise as much as the next person, each film has gotten better and more exciting of the years, however I've never read the books, and probably never will. I'm not a big reader. So really at the time, I can't make an opinion on the subject because I haven't seen the last 2 film adaptions, even though, I know what happens. You can get that information anywhere you want on the net. Still, at first glance, 7 books seems to me to be enough. Granted, if Rowling decided to write an 8th book, it would once agian bring her an insane paycheck to say the least, however my concern, as with any franchise, is running out of steam. Can she create another book and story to satisfy fans of Harry Potter? I think she can. Its so obvious how creative she is, but I think I'm in agreement with her that a long break is needed, before revisting the universe.
What do you think friends???
