Hello everyone, this time I will talk about a great writer, J. K. Rowling...

J. K. Rowling is a British novelist and has became in a very important woman in England and in the United Kingdom best-selling author. She has reached titles as "Person of the year" in 2007, being located in the top 50 of the most powerful celebrities and the 12th place as the richest richest British woman, all of this by her more recognized and famous books, "The Harry Potter's Saga", that consist in 7 chapters story. This has been one of the most important series of literature and also films and has won many prizes as "book of the Year" for each book and for the films that has been made for each one of them.



She was born in Yates, on July 31st, in 1965, England. In school she was shy and freckled and since she was 6 years, she started to interest in writing, and the first story she wrote was about a rabbit called Rabbit, after that she wrote many fantasy stories. Being a teenager, her aunt gave her a copy of Jessica Mitford's biography, "Hons and Rebels", and through the time, she became in her favorite author. Quiet and studious she did well and school and at the University of Exeter she graduated with a Bachelor's degree in French and Classics. After that she had the opportunity to study French in Paris, then she went to London to train to become a bilingual secretary and also worked as an English teacher and in Portugal and London, in the first place she met and married Jorge Arantes, in 1992, and gave birth her daughter of the next year, but the couple finished their relationship for months later and she returned to Britain, and, as a single mother, she felt in a depression where she was just about to commit suicide. She always had the idea of a story of a boy that studies in a wizard's school and when she was 25, by a delayed train from Manchester to London, the huge idea of a Harry Potter and the story suddenly came to her head, and when she arrives to London she started to write the outline and the plots of the books, she says that the bad experience with her first husband helped her to make the creature of the Dementor in Harry Potter and in 1996  Bloomsbury offered her to publish the first chapter of Harry Potter's story, "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" and then, all the achievements as a writer and woman.


I think that someone that overtakes it's bad experiences and uses them to make something great for it and for all is a very smart and strong person, , and also more important, someone that follows it's dreams and works for reach them is someone that can teach us about happiness and being proud of what we are and J.K Rowling is that person.
