Rowling responds to bomb death threats.
Rowling, 55, said hundreds of activists in the name of transgender rights threatened to beat, rape, assassinate and even bomb her.
But Rowling says she will continue to write about her most recent work, the Detective Stryker series. In completing the work, she said she used her pen name, Robert Galbraith. "Thank you very much to all those who have delivered a good, kind, interesting, and supportive message to me," she wrote.
Last year, Rowling caused much controversy over her dissenting the idea of "people with menstruation." She says this discussion of gender identity has rendered biological gender meaningless. In June 2020, she published an open letter in which she defended her comments about the transgender community and revealed her own experiences of sexual abuse and domestic violence.
In response, many of the stars who have starred in film adaptations of Rowling's novels have spoken out in support of the rights of transgender groups. Among those who vocifered their support were Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint.
