JK Rowling

JK Rowling is an amazing person. This will tell you about her life story, how she wrote many books, had a very sad and interesting background, and will tell you how she became a multi-millionaire in 5 years. So sit down, grab some popcorn and relax.

In July 31, 1965, a baby was born, her name was Joanne Rowling. Joanne's parents met at Kings Cross where Harry Potter gets on the bus to Hogwarts. Anyway skip ahead a few years and here she is in her small house with three children named Jessica, Mackenzie, and David.

Joanne was very poor at this time. She was unemployed, until she picked up a pencil and started writing. When she was on a train she wrote her initial ideas about Harry Potter on a napkin and filled five notebook pages with Q words until she came up with Quidditch. By the time Joanne got back home she started writing. When she was done Joanne went to twelve publishers, until she finally got accepted.

Joanne later changed her name to JK because it was shorter and she liked it more. JK's parents never gave Joanne a middle name so she took her grandmothers name Kathleen, which the K stands for. JK must really like her grandmother.

JK Rowling was later awarded an Order Of The British Empire in 2001. JK also shares the same birthday as Harry Potter, hmm I think she did that on purpose. To this day JK is still writing books, and will be for a very long time.

I think JK is an incredible person she's hardworking, creative, and determined. I hope you think JK Rowling is amazing too. Her story is inspiring and I hope you enjoyed it.
