  Today's Globe and Mail has a brief article to the effect that Rankin's
  comment about J.K. Rowling was merely intended as a joke and there is no
  truth in his wife's so-called spotting of Rowling writing in an
  Edinburgh caf鮊

  Today's Names & Faces column in the Washington Post had this quote from
  Ian Rankin: "My wife spotted her [JK Rowling] writing her Edinburgh
  criminal detective novel. . . . It is great that she has not abandoned
  writing or Edinburgh cafes."

  Rowling: "I'll do exactly what I did with Harry -- I'll write what I
  really want to write."

  So it seems the Spillane homage in hte last Harry Potter that someone
  here noted was a preview of things to come.
