I have a vague (and probably false) recollection that DWJ was annoyed by some report that some of her earlier works echoed JKR's themes and said that if anything it was the other way round.
That may be what I was thinking of. One can see why she would find it extremely annoying. Whoever made the accusation was not only rubbish at checking relative publishing dates, but ignorant of the many books about young wizards & witches at school or otherwise, that turn up in British kidlit.
