Harry Potter fanatics might often debate over which book out of the seven kills it the most*, but, frankly, the question is moot because JK Rowling‘s greatest work isn’t any of those books. Or any of Robert Galbraith’s.
Because Rowling’s greatest work is her bloody beautiful twitter feed.
Adding to her extensive repertoire of doing Twitter right, today JK Rowling offered up a wager to her fans: support Scotland’s Rugby World Cup efforts against Samoa with the #AsOne tag, and the date of Sirius Black‘s birthday would be unleashed.
Off to Newcastle for #SAMvSCO and if lots of you tweet #AsOne to support Scotland, you can have Sirius’s birthday! #RugbyWorldCup

The match was AKA Triwizard Tournament of Rugby.
To those asking: if @Scotlandteam beat Samoa, they progress to quarter finals of #rugbyworldcup2015. We’re basically at the lake task.

@jk_rowling I don’t particularly like rugby, but I’ve got a Scottish name and that’s good enough for me #AsOne

@jk_rowling #AsOne for the birthday even though I’m supporting Ireland!
