"The queen of magic"

Every person has his own star, own celebrity, own person of dearms.The same topic may occur different to everyone. And as for me it is the one and only J.K Rowling.
This person is an author; a novelist, actually, and today she is the 2nd richest female entertainer in the world. She is famous for her fictional set of books on magic, the ‘Harry Potter’ series. The set consists of 7 books. Even movies are being made up of the books. Otherwise they are- The Philosopher’s stone, The Chamber of Secerts,The Prisoner of Azkaban, The Goblet of fire, The Order of the Phoenix, The Half-Blood Prince, and the Deathly Hollows, was released in the bookstalls recently last year. Till now, the movies till the 6th part, the half blood prince, have been made. This movie was in cinemas on the sixteen of July. The movie of the 7th part will be spilt into 2 films.J.K.Rowling, before writing those books, was unemployed and not- so- rich... She had a talent for writing, because she had written her first story. When she was six about a rabbit named Rabbit! So, she started writing the Harry Potter books.
When people asked her about how the idea came to her, she said that once, while she was taking a train from king’s Cross Station," Harry Potter entered my mind fully formed ".As she boarded the train, other characters also started taking shape. As a matter of fact, even in the book, Harry Potter comes to king’s cross station to catch the Hogwarts Express from Platform Nine and Three Quarters!!!
J.K.Rowling wrote the first 6 books without any problem; that was not the hard part. The hard part was finding the publisher for the book. Most people thought her idea to be crazy and turned her down. Finally, Bloomsbury agreed to print one of her books. The books were sold like hot cakes. this was her first book the Philosopher’s stone, and got the 1997 ‘Gold Award’ in the ‘Age 9 to 11’ categorie.Bloomsberry happily agreed to print the rest of her books too, in the ages to come.
I like J.K.Rowling because she inspired me to write. Right now, I am just a junior artist, but someday, I hope I will be a novelist as good as her. I just hope I will.
Let me share a secret with you- DanielleRadcliffe [the actor staring Harry in the films], J.K.Rowling, and Harry Potter share the same birth day-31st July.
MISCHEIF MANAGED!!
