Lots of nominations for JKRowling. You can vote. Just click through and tell them your choice.

That was fun, also done!

anotherchocolate · 16/12/2021 19:33

Done.

For the many that don’t want to hand over their details, I’m led to believe that there are such things as disposable email addresses and phone numbers just a Google search away. You don’t have to register, just use and forget

Was about to post this! I know who mine is!
I ❤️ JKR

I like the idea of calling ourselves Rowling's Army!

@BernadetteRostankowskiWolowitz

How can we see who has been voted for so far?
I'm not sure we can, but there are quite a lot of mentions on the Twitter thread
TheMarzipanDildo · 16/12/2021 18:46

Done!

Mooscow · 16/12/2021 18:43

I've done this too. Go JKR!

RoyalCorgi · 16/12/2021 18:43

sorry, I see it's already been posted!

Yes you have to vote via the guardian link. But you can set up a new email address for things like this if you are concerned about giving out personal details.

I'm not either, you can click through from the Twitter link to the guardian page which has the form. I'm not sure adding tweets counts even.

www.theguardian.com/media/2021/dec/15/tell-us-who-is-your-2021-person-of-the-year But it won't submit without an email.

Good to see this, I have nominated her and it seems a lot of people have.

Whether the guardian put or on the front page or not is one thing - but with a heap of nominations, someone surely will take notice of the support she is getting?

You don't have to give them your real details if you are worried. My son also voted for her. As did my mum. I'm sending it to all family members who I know are onside. Let's gather together Rowling’s Army to vote for her.

Isn't it astounding how the Guardian purposely left the most famous person born on 31st July out of their birthday mentions so they wouldn't have to print her name?

You will this time

Chickenyhead · 16/12/2021 18:25

Done.

Lottapianos · 16/12/2021 18:23

'then got a bit twitchy about telling them my name, where I live, phone number, email address, what I do for a living...'

You don't have to. I may have, um, edited some of my details....

FortunesFavour · 16/12/2021 18:21

Already have 👍

Oh dear, however will the G wriggle out of the overwhelming vote for JKR?! No doubt they’ll think of something, but will be good to see them squirm Grin

Mollyollydolly · 16/12/2021 18:17

Already done! They couldn't even bring themselves to include her in their birthday list so I suspect they'll ignore them all. Satisfying to do anyway.

Was going to - then got a bit twitchy about telling them my name, where I live, phone number, email address, what I do for a living...
