You can send JKR a card or letter of support by posting them to this address:

J.K. Rowling
c/o Bloomsbury Publishing PLC
50 Bedford Square
London WC1B 3DP
United Kingdom

It would be wonderful to see her inundated with personal messages of support. Mine's in the post.

I agree that sending cards and emails are a great way to support her, (and the response I got to my email was warm and fuzzy and lovely), but we can also support by reading The Ickabog, which is (of course) a great story, and then giving positive comments on the fabulous drawings the kids are churning out, especially when she responds to one and haters try to spoil the threads. I think it's better not to engage with the creeps on the threads, but stay on the topic of kid's art and drown them out.

Bumping this for anyone who wants to send further support.
She really appreciated receiving over 3000 messages of support, I think it really helps her stay strong under such an onslaught of hate.

I'd love to see a photo of their offices groaning under the weight of all the cards. Like the picture of all the cards for Captain Tom for his 100th birthday Grin

Thank you, OP.

I don’t think it matters what cards she gets but I know I’d never have a better reason to use my one.

(My name is the title of my favourite record of 2018, btw Smile).

Wow, that could come in very useful.

I sent the card below from Moonpig.

I wrote quite a long message and felt empowered by doing so.

I signed off "Nolite te bastardes carborundum".

What a great card, FamilyofAliens. Love your name. I'm afraid JKR got one of our small stock of 'oh hell, I need a card' cards rather than something special.

I sent an email and got a nice reply back.

Vdubcampa · 15/06/2020 21:02

I’ve sent an email, thanks for the address. May send a card tomorrow too. Support her now she’s under such pressure.

KindKylie · 15/06/2020 15:43

I've sent an email and have a card written and ready to pop in the post box. I hope they help.

FamilyOfAliens · 14/06/2020 21:50

I’ve had this card for years - literally. I can’t think of a better use for it Smile

LillianBland · 14/06/2020 21:42

Merely, not nearly. Sorry JK.

LillianBland · 14/06/2020 21:41

[quote MrsSlocombesPussy]I'm thinking of buying a stock of these cards

That’s a great site, thank you. It’s given me some great gift ideas. This one struck a cord with me and I immediately thought of JK and the reaction to her nearly speaking the truth.

I have a one touch sub so use this to send cards to people such as this.

WisestIsShe · 14/06/2020 21:28

Thanks for the prompt, it's a great idea. I got a card that says "stay wild and free". When I explained to dh what I was doing he said, I hope your signed it from me too.

lakeswimmer · 14/06/2020 21:27

I sent a card yesterday.

MrsKingfisher · 14/06/2020 21:20

I bought a moon pig card with #IstandwithJKR on the front. Will post tomorrow

LittleCabbage · 13/06/2020 23:54

Just spent the evening writing a long letter to put inside a card. Very satisfied to have finished - will post tomorrow.

FannyCann · 13/06/2020 15:04

Going to write my card and an email later. I bought a really nice card yesterday with a picture of several women of diverse appearance saying Thanks from all of us!
It seemed appropriate. Need to think about what I want to write.

thereplycamefromanchorage · 13/06/2020 14:54

Thank you for this. I am posting a card to her today. I hope she is inundated with supportive post.

VickyEadieofThigh · 13/06/2020 14:43

Have just bought the Cormoran Strike novels and sent a supportive email.

SocialConnection · 13/06/2020 14:39

Just explained to my other half what the card in my hands was for.

After a moment he fished in his wallet and gave me his last first class stamp.

A bit later I heard from the other room ...

'grown men following teenage girls into the toilets .. mutter mutter mutter ... '

He gets it.

YogaNChocolate · 13/06/2020 14:09

Emailed her last week and got a nice reply from one of her office staff, I presume.

Just written a card, too, and will post later.

TwerkForTeachers · 13/06/2020 13:24

Have put my card in the post this morning

PenguindreamsofDraco · 13/06/2020 12:11

I just picked up the four Robert Galbraiths from my local bookshop as well. Isn't much but the more money she has, the more freedom she has to say, stop, this is wrong.
