What Is Pottermore?
J.K. Rowling told the world what Pottermore is on June 23, 2011.
In her announcement released June 23, 2011, J.K. Rowling said that Pottermore would be a brand-new online reading experience. She expanded that Pottermore would share the same story with one very important ingredient added and that is YOU. You join the story in a "safe, unique, online reading experience."
Pottermore would also become the first source for Harry Potter digital audio and ebooks.
The London Telegraph said that Pottermore "represents a significant landmark for digital publishing." This was the first time an author had taken her books and worked for a year to create an online experience that would use the best of what the web had to offer and that will not be simply her manuscript available online.
