...Rowling The Harry Potter author is on her way to becoming a club of one as this world's first billionaire author. While the otherworldly book series has been a pretty little earner for the British scribe - 100 million copies sold worldwide - the celluloid version has Harry's Nimbus 2000 broom and other merchandise flying off the shelves...
DIED. KEN KESEY, 66, author and '60s counterculture superhero; following cancer surgery; in Eugene, Ore. Kesey was a rebel pundit and a comic scribe, a longtime advocate of hallucinogens and a lifelong champion of individualism.

Red blotches around the set’s living room hint at some bloody work done in the past. Yet the mystery is a red herring. The play, by British scribe Philip Ridley, is more interested in exploring the ins and outs of the characters’ skewed psyches, notably as depicted in the clash that comes when Presley sends Haley into a drug-induced sleep and admits an outsider into their home...
