Anonymous Patron writes "Reuters.co.uk: Harry Potter publisher Bloomsbury Publishing Plc said on Thursday it was confident of meeting its expectations for full-year results, helped by sales of books by existing authors and new signings. The company did not say what its expectations were. Bloomsbury's list for 2006 includes authors from its existing portfolio, like Joanna Trollope, Susanna Clarke and Ben Schott, as well as new authors, including William Boyd, Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall and William Dalrymple, the firm said in a statement ahead of an annual shareholder meeting."
