My favorite part:
The memory of her own college graduation speaker - or, rather, lack thereof - gave Rowling reassurance, she said.
"Reflecting on her speech has helped me enormously in writing this one, because it turns out that I can't remember a single word she said," she said to laughter. "This liberating discovery enables me to proceed without any fear that I might inadvertently influence you to abandon promising careers in business, law, or politics for the giddy delights of becoming a gay wizard."
