How to create a Horcrux?

I was reading this on imdb (it's from HPWiki)

[quote]# J. K. Rowling knows exactly what the process for the creation of a Horcrux is, but is not telling — yet. The information will be included in the Harry Potter Encyclopedia. She has told her editor what the process is and revealed that the editor felt like vomiting afterwards. All she will say is that a spell is involved, and a horrific act is performed.[2]
# J.K. Rowling described the invention of the Horcrux as comparable to the splitting of the atom: "Something that people imagined might be able to be done, but couldn't quite bring it off, and then... and then people started doing it with sometimes catastrophic effects."[10]

What it could be? She says the editor almost vomit O_O I'd like to know it.

    Very awesome. Can't wait to read about that, and I'm glad it wasn't elaborated upon in the books.

    Well the horrific act has to be as far as i'm aware: MURDER! as that in itself is an horrifying act.

    Other than that i can't think of it, so i guess we'll just have to wait for the release (long away from now) of the encyclopedia, won't we?

    No, but you must decide on which murder you want to create a Horcrux with, otherwise you won't do so... you need to use you're magical skills/abilities/power to create one, all you even have to do basically is place you're wand against (i guess) a specific part of you and draw out a piece of your soul (much like with memories) by then placing that in an object.(or a living thing/being such as Nagini in her case)

    The only thing I can think of is cannibalism, but I'm really curious to read how to create it. Watch people start doing this.....that'll be scary O_O

    No, but you must decide on which murder you want to create a Horcrux with and intend to do it so much whilst your soul has already been fractured and tormented (by yourself) by the act in the first place (making it easier, but still very painful), otherwise you won't do so... you need to really use you're magical skills/abilities/power to create one (Voldy could only do many as he did, as he was prepared to feel the pain of making just one at the time and he was the only Dark wizard that would be able to survive so much of it (being the most powerful ever)... up until the point when he felt no pain and he was immortal, without dieing , all you even have to do basically is place you're wand against (i guess) a specific part of yourself and draw out a piece of your soul (much like with memories) by then placing that in an object.(or a living thing/being such as Nagini in her case)

    Here is an updated description by me, i hope that this helps!? :)
