J. K. Rowling and the Auteur Who Lived
Chapter 3 begins with a history of Rowling’s interactions with fandom; not only was Harry Potter one of the first truly massive internet-based fandoms, but she has been famously open to engaging with her fans on the internet from JKRowling.com to Pottermore to Twitter. Rowling’s auteur persona demonstrates a drive to be at the center of the fan experience, between providing a never-ending drip-feed of canon, moving fans into her proprietary Pottermore space, and actively seeking fan attention. In fact, by telling her fans how to interpret and continually re-centering herself, this chapter contends, Rowling models “proper” fandom as obedient to the author, one vital sense in which she is a fangirl auteur.
