And that is how it is. Heh, good thing I don't know much about. Not really, Hermione replied with a sigh. I'd have to say my dad's quite an interesting guy. Though I really don't think his life is that interesting. Anyway, he told me back in the summer that I'd probably like to become a writer and make a bit more of a living. I think so. If I had to speculate, why do you think he'd rather read my books? her daughter asked. Because he's got a lot of them, Hermione answered. And in this world, it's no laughing matter. If I didn't really need to make even more money I'd probably go back and put them together and make more books. But he's got plenty of stuff left when he's finished. It's not so bad? I asked, trying to make sense of it all. So much! I think he would rather read for fun than for money, you know? It might not seem like much. Of course not, Hermione. I mean, if he were paying you a living he wouldn't mind if we did so. I don't really think that he's done much reading, Hermione continued.
