i love J.K Rowling. i live for her books. im amazed because when i was 5 years old i wrote a small book about a red bird called, sam and my first thought was "lets get it published" there has never been a moment in my life where i havent wanted to be an author.
What i take away from these interviews, Is that Joans life had a major impact on her writing, i read all 7 harry potter books and i felt a sense of adventure, Like i was not in this world anymore, which inspired me to begin working on my book, i want that same impact on my readers, like the main characters adventure takes people into his world and keeps them there till they put the book down. She is very inspiring.
Jk Rowling is extraordinary. Shes a genius, to create the world of Harry Potter in her head, its just baffling. And to think shes richer than the Queen because she imagined a world of characters and events in her head makes me respect her more.
JK Rowling is a clear inspiration. She's proof that if you don't give up, keep trying, and persevere on your ambition/idea/s you CAN become successful. Not just her, but Stephen King, JRR Tolkien, and CS Lewis. Also, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs. True innovators and pioneers of the twentieth century. Never give up on your dreams. Even if, you are depressed and are at rock bottom. Like Ms. Rowling herself has said, "Rock bottom wasn't fun. I'm not romanticizing it. But it was liberating.". In essence, she was saying to not let any thoughts/inhibitions stand in your way. :). I love the Harry Potter series.
I remember watching the first Harry Potter movie with my dad years ago. It's hard to make him laugh, but he found the film highly amusing and chuckled often. Now that I've lost him, I find a strange comfort in the world of Harry Potter.
I'll never forget the feeling i get whenever i read or watch Harry Potter and i'll never stop wishing that one day i'll get that letter from Hogwarts and live this fascinating life. Im proud to say that i've stuck by Harry Potter from the very start and will always stick by it. I could never thank J.K Rowling so much for creating this world which has been my childhood.
@MissChips33 Actually her mother died before the first book was published, but she was clinically depressed when she wrote the first book, and she did base the dementors on depression, especially the part about how you feel like you'll never be happy again.
some of the most incredible moments of my life were spent within the realm of Harry Potter. Such a beautiful world she's created...I wouldn't have it any other way. :)
J. K. Rowling is one of the best writers. I never thought that a book written for children can so fascinate adults. The fate of Harry I know by heart and still happy to be back to this reading. I recommend books by JK Rowling as a way for miles to spend some time for both children and older generation.
@TheSimonTech watch the interview she had with oprah. She specifically states that Deathly Hallows had Christian influence that came from how she was raised.
I grew up with the potter series, now that the last of the movies are done and over with, it saddens me in a tremendous way. THIS was a classic, is a classic, and will always be.
IKR =) For me, the moment of inspiration first struck when I read the sentence, "He had hands the size of dustbin lids" about Hagrid in the first book. I knew I was onto a winner and that I wanted to write like her.
i doubt you'll be that disappointed, they actually did a fairly good job transfering the books into movies. The books are extremely detailed and answers alot of questions you may not have picked up in the films. I just recently started reading the first book and find it hard to put down...so go for it :)
@earnamint, STOP SPAMMING THE J.K ROWLING INTERVIEWS! Shes amazing and she definitely is the true author of Harry Potter. There is no shame in seeking professional help as you need it. Jo did when she was depressed, I did, too, when I had borderline. So go and get some help, you and everyone else will feel better afterwards.
Wow I just have to say J.K. Rowling you are the best. I mean I try really hard when i write my stories and when I get my own ideas but none of them can compair with the amazing world that you have created. You make me try harder at my stories because I want to be a great author like you. And for the people that are saying she stole your idea get a life. And it doesn't take 17 years to write a book! I mean sure it takes A LOT to come up with a magical world like she did but still come on.
if it weren't for you J.K my life wouldn't be what it is today the harry book's has had a so massive influence on my life that they are now like a part of my life! every day when i go to sleep i read one of your books EVERY DAY !
The Harry Potter series are some of the better books written EVER. It's one of the best told stories EVER. It's just incredible. Timeless. Children for generations will be falling in love with Harry Potter over and over. The Twilight books are a whole different story. They are NOT timeless. They're half-way decent. Not wonderful, but decent. (I've read them. I wouldn't talk if I hadn't read them.) They are EXTREMELY corny. I mean, they made me laugh a lot more than anything else.
@xwahinex ME TOO! i was a bit young but its best to wait for all the books to come out instead of having them all out. it makes you appreciate them more. to me the Deathly hallows took SO long to come out it was unbearable but i enjoyed it more when it did =D
And here is another fact: J.K Rowling was greatly inspired by the T.V series Bewitched. Bewitched helped her create the magical world of Harry Potter and many elements in the Harry Potter series originated in Bewitched: Witch and wizard to mortal(Muggle) marriage-and a witch who does not tell her mortal husband that she is a witch until after they are married Traveling magically by fireplace Traveling by magically disappearing from one location and re-appearing at another Half-bloods Wizard chess Moving photos A magical wizarding world hidden from mortals and with secret entrances Schools of witchcraft All these elements were originally in Bewitched and JK Rowling needs to admit to where the ideas came from!

There are many Christians today that have never read a page from the Bible in their entire life! If you hear her talk, she knows much more about the occult terms and practices than she knows about the Bible. She said she does not believe in magic...but, she writes with passion about it. It's like Martha Steward would say: read my baking books, even bake some of the cookies, but don't eat them. How many can do that? You can't put Christians and witchcraft in the same space,and have light.
Go for it! You'll be a great writer, just don't quit. And if you're strapped for cash, you can always get a part-time job modelling because you're pretty. :-)
@divadevil123 I started writing early also, within a few months of learning how to read. I am a ghost writer still... but my works are vast including books, movies, music, TV etc. I think you should write some more.
I wonder if there will ever be another Wizarding story. Not that i'm saying Harry Potter isn't good, i love it, and JK Rowling is such an awesome writer. I know i shoudn't say this but: Team Harry Potter .... yeah... no?
Harry Potter is my favorite book series by far! I never wanted it to end. People who compare twilight to it are seriously confused (and i read the twilight books)
She is an amazing women to all kids wen we were younger n she truley change them n i think we we r older we will be telling storys about dis wonderful amazing lady who created a book dat no1 ever thought into a muitmillon dollor movies!! i'll be naming my daughter after JK!!!!
@labyrinthReviews In the interview she had with Oprah Winfrey she said something like this : " In magic the man has to relay on himself.In religion you are looking for outside support. But that's the appeal of magic. I am not saying I believe that that magic is real, I don't. But that's the appeal of magic, the idea that we ourselves have power and we can shape our world." She admits that magic is relaying on oneself, and this is the point that Satan makes: you are Gods, master of yourself!
why do people always compare harry potter and twilight? those two CAN'T be compared. harry potter is incomparable to! it's the world's greatest phenomenon! it's indisputably a classic.
i read Twilight saga and right now reading the book number 5 of Harry Potter, i liked both, but is a million of times more entertaining Harry Potter. The people say like: "Oh, you can't compared those books because thay are so different", well yes , but you CAN compared the "entertaining" of them , and way better Harry Potter

I met her! She signed the last book for me! She is really sweet and definately an inspiration!
You just cant hate or be jealous of this lady. She went through so much and never gave up until she found success.
i love J.K Rowling. i live for her books. im amazed because when i was 5 years old i wrote a small book about a red bird called, sam and my first thought was "lets get it published" there has never been a moment in my life where i havent wanted to be an author.
"Goblet nearly killed me." You're telling me! My copy fell off my shelf and hit me on the top of the head. I really did think I was dying.
😂😂😂 that thing weighs as much as a brick
She is so inspiring to me! I love all of these stories on her life and the story behind her writing!
same;)
What i take away from these interviews, Is that Joans life had a major impact on her writing, i read all 7 harry potter books and i felt a sense of adventure, Like i was not in this world anymore, which inspired me to begin working on my book, i want that same impact on my readers, like the main characters adventure takes people into his world and keeps them there till they put the book down.

And to think shes richer than the Queen because she imagined a world of characters and events in her head makes me respect her more.
riazomonero Don't believe the rumour that she's richer than the Queen. No one comes close to her vast wealth empire.

Absolutely love this lady. Beautiful,benevolent and super intelligent.
I love you, Ms. Rowling. Thank you for making me an avid reader and a writer!
The moment you realise that 2007 was 14 years ago...
😂
What an inspirational story! She deserves it all! What a great writer and such an imagination!
Beautifully written books...I have all of them
such a beautiful, amazing, genius woman... would love to meet her!
she's so beautiful!
she's so inspiring. i love her
She's such an inspiration. She's unforgettable!
some of the most incredible moments of my life were spent within the realm of Harry Potter. Such a beautiful world she's created...I wouldn't have it any other way. :)
the fact that she got my generation reading (89' 91'92' so fourth) is gigantic achievement in itself. Well Done JK.
i adore all her values and qualities.
she has inspired me in more ways i could ever tell.
she has inspired a whole generation to read
Queen Rowling is amazing..
Wonderful woman, you can tell she's still very real and unaffected (as much as you can be) by the fame
I'm absolutely in love with this series! I bought Harry's glasses off of the internet! WOOHOO!!!!
you are right, this is true. I started reading because of her books. I love them , and they made me want to read other books too.
J. K. Rowling is one of the best writers. I never thought that a book written for children can so fascinate adults. The fate of Harry I know by heart and still happy to be back to this reading.

@TheSimonTech watch the interview she had with oprah. She specifically states that Deathly Hallows had Christian influence that came from how she was raised.
It would be so great to meet her. Seriously. She's one of my biggest inspirations.
rowling, you gave me everything that I have. you can't imagine how much. thanks so much.!
I wish ideas like this just "came" to me
My mother has MS so I respect her dedication to the MS society
I couldn't imagine the pain of ending the series. It's bad enough for me to finish reading the last book.
If I ever met her, I would start to cry. I owe her so much.
She seems so genuine. I'm a straight female but to me I think she's such a beautiful lady and her talent is exquisite.
I grew up with the potter series, now that the last of the movies are done and over with, it saddens me in a tremendous way. THIS was a classic, is a classic, and will always be.
IKR =) For me, the moment of inspiration first struck when I read the sentence, "He had hands the size of dustbin lids" about Hagrid in the first book. I knew I was onto a winner and that I wanted to write like her.
she somehow always reminds me of lady di, maybe it's her big sad eyes
J.K Rowling is sooo amazing. Gosh. She's such an inspiration. Her imagination is just so awesome! :D
Jo seems a genuinely lovely and kind person!
i used to hate her and the books but after wathing 7th movie and learning a few things i understand how deep she is
Did you read the books since that comment?
Does anyone know if she's still married, and how many kids she's got? I love her!
How can someone dislike this?
she's a genius
i doubt you'll be that disappointed, they actually did a fairly good job transfering the books into movies. The books are extremely detailed and answers alot of questions you may not have picked up in the films. I just recently started reading the first book and find it hard to put down...so go for it :)
JKR gave me everything that I have. I wouldn't be me without her. Thanks so much
@earnamint,
STOP SPAMMING THE J.K ROWLING INTERVIEWS!

heroofzelda360 Are you writing right now? I just started to write about a story in my head
if it weren't for you J.K my life wouldn't be what it is today the harry book's has had a so massive influence on my life that they are now like a part of my life! every day when i go to sleep i read one of your books EVERY DAY !
I only read the last two books which were amazing. However i do wish i had read the previous books.
The Harry Potter series are some of the better books written EVER. It's one of the best told stories EVER. It's just incredible. Timeless. Children for generations will be falling in love with Harry Potter over and over. The Twilight books are a whole different story. They are NOT timeless. They're half-way decent.

And here is another fact: J.K Rowling was greatly inspired by the T.V series Bewitched. Bewitched helped her create the magical world of Harry Potter and many elements in the Harry Potter series originated in Bewitched:
Witch and wizard to mortal(Muggle) marriage-and a witch who does not tell her mortal husband that she is a witch until after they are married
Traveling magically by fireplace
Traveling by magically disappearing from one location and re-appearing at another
Half-bloods
Wizard chess
Moving photos
A magical wizarding world hidden from mortals and with secret entrances
Schools of witchcraft
All these elements were originally in Bewitched and JK Rowling needs to admit to where the ideas came from!
i always wondered, when harry died and was in kings cross, was it because thats where joe technically started it all or it just held value to him?
good interviewer
she's the reason, why i read books :)

Go for it! You'll be a great writer, just don't quit. And if you're strapped for cash, you can always get a part-time job modelling because you're pretty. :-)
There's always Pottermore in October!
never read the books, but some of the best movies ever made!
same....tho i love to read i can never read a book like read harry potter...its a whole diff expierence that i miss dearly
this woman is wonderful... the best!
@divadevil123 I started writing early also, within a few months of learning how to read. I am a ghost writer still... but my works are vast including books, movies, music, TV etc. I think you should write some more.

Oh dear! Well, that says something for always proofreading posts! Thanks, haha! Jo*
Harry Potter is my favorite book series by far! I never wanted it to end. People who compare twilight to it are seriously confused (and i read the twilight books)
literary genius!
this woman is sheer genius
@breadandbutterr I believe they can! If it happened for JK, it can certainly happen for you!
she might be the richist women in london because of the harry potter book
She is an amazing women to all kids wen we were younger n she truley change them n i think we we r older we will be telling storys about dis wonderful amazing lady who created a book dat no1 ever thought into a muitmillon dollor movies!! i'll be naming my daughter after JK!!!!
i honestly hope sh writes another book series
True genius!
well the recent ones are getting more serious... but i still find it cool to watch a harry potter movie... of course there's nothing like the books :D
2021 recommendation to me? Should I write a book now RUclips?
Never read a book, never saw a movie. But she's awsome no doubt.
That is a matter of taste.
I mean nothing can top Harry Potter, but i don't think the Twilight Saga gets boring.
@PR1000DTV yeah, start off rough, don't try and perfect it straight away. you've gotta write out a rough few chapter or two and build on it.
Can anyone tell me where i find the song which is played at the very beginning of this video? How is it called and from which part is it?
I love J.K.|
Rowling!!!.

I keep wanting the interviewer to say "is that your final answer"?
dose anyone no how to do a book the best way possible to start off ?
@LynnDynn
Because we can compare how Voldemort fucking shines while Edward Cullen merely sparkles :)
I LOVE THIS WOMAN!
She's so much better than stephanie whatever who wrote that twilight thing
why do people always compare harry potter and twilight? those two CAN'T be compared. harry potter is incomparable to! it's the world's greatest phenomenon! it's indisputably a classic.
NOOOO the movies leave so much secrets and details out i really recomend u read the books 1-6 before going to book 7
one creative woman
i read Twilight saga and right now reading the book number 5 of Harry Potter, i liked both, but is a million of times more entertaining Harry Potter. The people say like: "Oh, you can't compared those books because thay are so different", well yes , but you CAN compared the "entertaining" of them , and way better Harry Potter

Ooh I like! I'm stealing that. =P
