Harry Potteri sarjaga kuulsaks saanud kirjanik J. K. Rowling kirjutab oma kodulehel sellest kui raske on Edinburghis paberit leida:
There is only one thing that annoys me about living in Edinburgh – well, two, but I’m pretty much resigned to the weather now. Why is it so difficult to buy paper in the middle of town? What is a writer who likes to write longhand supposed to do when she hits her stride and then realises, to her horror, that she has covered every bit of blank paper in her bag? Forty-five minutes it took me, this morning, to find somewhere that would sell me some normal, lined paper. And there’s a university here! What do the students use? Don’t tell me laptops, it makes me feel like something out of the eighteenth century.
The book’s still going well, I’m sure you’re pleased to hear, lack of paper notwithstanding.
Huvitav fakt mida J. K. Rowling’i fännid juba kindlasti teavad: kirjaniku pärisnimi on tegelikult Joanne Rowling. Tema teoseid avaldav kirjastus Bloomsbury arvas, et noored poisid ei soovi osta raamatuid, mille autoriks on naine, seega soovitati tal raamatu kaanel eesnimi asendada kahe initsiaaliga. Kuna Rowling’il aga teist eesnime ei ole, siis initsiaal K on pärit tema vanaema, Kathleen’i nimest.
