Rowling has revealed that she is currently working on two projects -- a book for children and another for adults -- and neither are a continuation of the Harry Potter series.

But she said that she expected to drop one of the projects - as happened when she wrote Harry Potter and the Philospher’s Stone, the first in the Hogwarts’ series.

"The weird thing is that this is exactly the way I started writing Harry," she said.

"I was writing two things simultaneously for a year before Harry took over. So one will oust the other in due course, and I’ll know that’s my next thing," she tells USA Today in an interview to promote Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the seventh and final book in the series published last weekend.

With a fortune estimated at more than £500 million, Rowling is now so successful that she does not need to write for her bank manager or her publishers - only for her own satisfaction. But it is tantalising for her fans.

She always maintained that Harry Potter would end after seven books. But, asked recently whether she would reconsider, she unexpectedly said: "Never say never." She has also talked about writing a Hogwarts encyclopaedia.
