J.K. Rowling is truly the gift that keeps on giving. A trait that I admire most about her is her down-to-earth persona and the fact that she still answers even our most ludicrous questions on Twitter. She also gave us all what we've been waiting for, an 8th story after 'All was well.'
This year isn't just the Dawn of The Age of Hufflepuff or the time when we found out where Harry's eldest son, James Sirius was sorted (Gryffindor, much to Teddy Lupin's chagrin). This post won't also just feature the facts she revealed about the Potter family or what might be her new favorite line of 2015. This article will be a collection of all her glorious tweets this 2015 regarding the Wizarding World, Harry Potter and Fantastic Beasts from January up to December. I used tweettunnel to track and filter them all so you won't have to.
Enjoy the throwbacks, muggles and wizards!
January
When she knew all along Tom Felton's real house.
.@TomFelton I could've told you that years ago. I just didn't want to spoil your motivation ;)
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) January 21, 2015
I even wrote an article about it which you can read right here .
When she declared us all very cool before signing off
I wish I could answer you all but your Tweets come very thick and fast! Be happy & I hereby declare you all cool. X
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) January 29, 2015
I just feel the need to include it. This was after her tweet spree and helping her friend Robert Galbraith finish writing some chapters of his book.
When she explained why she founded Lumos
This explains why I founded international children's charity @lumos, which aims to end institutionalisation. http://t.co/kFmeA0AtC8
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) January 30, 2015
Institutions doesn't provide the basic love and care parents provide for children.

When she clarified the answer to this Tumblr question

— Festive Fatima (@llamaofthelab) February 5, 2015
.@llamaofthelab The Horcrux-receptacle has to be destroyed BEYOND REPAIR, so Harry would need to have DIED. #pleaseneveraskmethatoneagain
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) February 6, 2015
Geez people. Not all the Horcruxes can be destroyed by the basilisk fang!
When she told us which part of the Harry Potter books she bawled her eyes out
.@hello_sanchez Me too. It was as bad as when I wrote chapter 34 of Deathly Hallows, and that's saying something.
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) February 18, 2015
Chapter 34, The Forest Again. The part when Harry realizes what he must do in order to defeat the Dark Lord. There's a Horcrux inside Harry, and he had to die to insure Voldemort's defeat. He walked into what we thought would be his end. I can't continue explaining this, I'm sure all of you know it and it hurts so much.
.@larapetale Yep, that's where I bawled my eyes out after writing chapter 34.

March
When she tweeted her appreciation for her fans on World Book Day

The announcement of Cursed Child
Today is a very special day for two reasons. Firstly, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone was published in the UK 18 years ago!
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) June 26, 2015
I'm also very excited to confirm today that a new play called Harry Potter and the #CursedChild will be opening in London next year.
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) June 26, 2015
It will tell a new story, which is the result of a collaboration between writer Jack Thorne, director John Tiffany and myself. #CursedChild
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) June 26, 2015
I don't want to say too much more, because I don't want to spoil what I know will be a real treat for fans. #CursedChild

they will agree that it was the only proper medium for the story. #CursedChild

I've had countless offers to extend Harry's story over the years, but Jack, John and Sonia Friedman are a dream team! #CursedChild
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) June 26, 2015
It has been a huge pleasure to share with them (and soon, with you!) this untold part of Harry's story. #CursedChild
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) June 26, 2015
Cursed Child is a sequel which proves that all is not-so-well after all. The major cast for the play has already been announced, and you can read more about it here.
Even though J.K. Rowling didn't write the script for Cursed Child (Jack Thorne did), it should be considered canon because they developed it together along with the play's director John Tiffany.

August
A conversation about teas
I would never, ever have a Horcrux. They are evil objects created through despicable means! (Possibly a teabag). https://t.co/jcPttBaZuX
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) August 7, 2015
In the first week of August, she mainly talked about teas and how to make them properly. Hence, the most important thing I took from Tea week was the information of what JKR's horcrux would be.
Though I believe that her souls are in the books. How else would you explain Fred, Dumbledore, Snape, Lupin, Tonks, Dobby and Hedwig?
Is there a Wizard Equivalent for the United Nations?
The equivalent is the International Confederation of Wizards. https://t.co/7DcIVI1TIg
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) August 8, 2015
The confederation also made the International Statue of Wizarding secrecy, to hide the wizarding world from the muggle world, as well as cover-ups (much like what they do in M.I.B.). Most notably, Albus Dumbledore was a Supreme Mugwump at the Confederation - that is until he said that Voldemort was back.
Anthony Goldstein's famous relatives
I feel I owe you a bit of #FantasticBeasts information after you all got behind @Scotlandteam, so let's see...

The sad truth about Hagrid
Hagrid couldn't produce a Patronus. It's a very difficult spell. https://t.co/TRDVNvSEdR
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) August 21, 2015
A fan asked what Hagrid's patronus was. Sadly the gamekeeper couldn't perform it. It wasn't about not having good and happy memories that's for sure. Probably because he didn't get to finish his Hogwarts education? Hagrid is one of my most favorite characters in the series, JKR, please can he have his own wand again?
Fantastic Beasts: Beauty in diversity
@Vividscarletsky Everyone in #FantasticBeasts is not white.
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) August 25, 2015
@Vividscarletsky Perhaps wait until you see the movie to judge? It is a trilogy and all the characters have not been revealed or cast yet.
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) August 25, 2015
The cast will diversify, eventually. JKR did address that the tweeter raised a significant point. It's just that Jo couldn't address it fully without giving away a lot.

'Tis a very important cat question. We have Filch's scrawny cat and Hermione's Half-Kneazle who is probably one of the most intelligent of his kind. Some would ship this two, but one tweeter asked who would win in a cat fight. Rowling gave her verdict:

Draco Malfoy: A Werewolf?
Their family is friends with the most savage werewolf - Fenrir Greyback, AND he could have been Voldemort's 'promised prey'. After Lucius failings and Draco's own failures as well, The Dark Lord may have had Greyback bite Draco thus infecting him the disease.
Come to think of it, he's VERY close with Snape too... Wolfsbane source? There's a whole article dedicated to this which you can read right here...
But... as intriguing as that sounds, JKR said it isn't true.
@jk_rowling There's. Another theory that Draco Malfoy is a werewolf fact or fiction?
— Abbi (@Riverfeather207) October 2, 2015
I've never seen that one before. Draco definitely isn't a werewolf (and Snape's not a vampire). https://t.co/TSliADJvyi

Nope.
What would Snape smell like?
Snape smells. That's for sure. Not counting anything else unpleasant in his appearance... His hair must stink for sure. Long, unkempt and greasy. Gross! But what exactly would he smell like?
Bitterness and old shoes. https://t.co/sbTLoPLDpj

Old shoes is kind of tolerable, but bitterness can reek all over the place and can be smelled even at a long distance.

Corwin's tweet was in response to one person asking Row-Row to if she could write all the HP books in Dumbledore's perspective. I think it would be interesting... Especially if you see 'Dumbledore logic' Tumblr posts often.
The whole Snape debacle
Some people still hate the fact that Albus Severus was named after an 'abuser'. The author explained why:
In honouring Snape, Harry hoped in his heart that he too would be forgiven. The deaths at the Battle of Hogwarts would haunt Harry forever.

@durinfunerals Success as a person means being fully and completely who you are. Don't measure yourself against others. Be you.
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) November 30, 2015
Sometimes we are insecure of the success of others. We compare every little thing that we do - or do wrong. Thinking we're not good enough and feeling pitiful to ourselves instead of striving harder. Some things are easier said than done, but we must always bear in mind that if we always keep on doing this, there's a likelihood that we're overlooking our own personal development, which is what truly matters.
