JUST to give information...

J.K. Rowlins used her initials not to copy J.R.R. Tolkien but because her publisher (I think thats it) suggested it because boys wouldn't believe that a woman would know so much about being a boy.
Mind you, I'm paraphrasing from an interview I had read.

Now back to the fun.....
