Every few weeks it seems, there’s a new headline that amounts to “J.K. Rowling said X on Twitter.”

Rowling reluctantly joined the service in 2009 after learning that someone had been impersonating her. She didn’t follow anyone, and she warned that she wouldn’t tweet much.

“I am told that people have been twittering on my behalf, so I thought a brief visit was in order just to prevent any more confusion!,” Rowling wrote. “However, I should flag up now that although I could twitter endlessly, I’m afraid you won’t be hearing from me very often…………………..as pen and paper is my priority at the moment.”

Since then, she’s tweeted fewer than 1,100 times at about an average clip of 15 times per month. By Twitter standards, that’s little more than a step up from Not Quite Mute. It’s surprising when you take into account how many news stories, blog posts and roundups (we know, we know, we’re doing it, too) are written based on her firing off a few quick words.
