JK Rowling at Harvard

Yes, Harry Potter may be over — except, of course, for the films — but J.K. Rowling has hardly disappeared from the scene. Click here to watch the video of her commencement address at Harvard University. She’s both funny and moving, and chooses to talk, of all things, about the benefits of failure.

    Aww. It’s too bad you didn’t get to go see her in person, but let’s face it: You would never have gotten as good as seat in real life as you do whilst watching that video. Isn’t it amazing how well she spoke? Seriously, she should have her own talk show. It would be better than Oprah and Jon Stewart combined.
