Her upcoming release is an Adult novel and will be published through Little, Brown.  As confirmed by The Wrap, Rowling has not only made the switch from Scholastic, but will also debut a &#8220;very different&#8221; post Potter novel this time around.  Here&#8217;s what Rowling had to say in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Although I&#8217;ve enjoyed writing it every bit as much, my next book will be very different to the Harry Potter series, which has been published so brilliantly by Bloomsbury and my other publishers around the world. The freedom to explore new territory is a gift that Harry&#8217;s success has brought me, and with that new territory it seemed a logical progression to have a new publisher. I am delighted to have a second publishing home in Little, Brown, and a publishing team that will be a great partner in this new phase of my writing life.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Little, Brown&#8217;s publisher and J.K. Rowling&#8217;s new editor, David Shelley, also shared his thoughts on J.K. &#8220;For me, quite simply, it is a personal and professional dream come true to be working with J.K. Rowling. She is one of the best storytellers in the world, and I am looking forward enormously to helping bring her new novel for adults to her fans and admirers, and to introducing her writing to new readers the world over.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>What do you think about the billion dollar author&#8217;s plans to publish an adult novel?  Are you looking forward to it Potter fans?<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_86239\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-86239\" style=\"width: 470px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/JK-Rowling.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/JK-Rowling.jpg\" alt=\"JK-Rowling\" title=\"JK-Rowling\" width=\"470\" height=\"379\" class=\"size-full wp-image-86239\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/JK-Rowling.jpg 470w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/JK-Rowling-300x241.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 470px) 100vw, 470px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-86239\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">JK-Rowling<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Harry Potter author J.K.
