Joanne Rowling is a British writer famous for series of books about Harry Potter. Her books attracted worldwide attention, won a lot of awards and made her rich and well-known all over the world. However, Joanne Rowling’s life was not always a story of success.
The idea of a story about a young boy attending a school of magic came into her mind in 1990 during a train trip, and she began to write the book immediately on getting home. It was in December of the same year when Rowling’s mother died. Her death deeply influenced Joanne’s writing and she described Harry’s loss of his parents in detail as she knew how it felt.
Soon after this Rowling moved to Portugal and got married there. She and her husband had a child in 1993 but separated later that year, so Rowling and her daughter moved to Edinburgh. Joanne’s depression resulted in the idea of the soul-sucking creatures called Dementors which she described in her books. Her marriage turned out to be a failure, she did not have a job and was short of money but she still continued writing. She often wrote in cafes as taking her little daughter for a walk was the best way to make her fall asleep and get some free time to write.
In 1995 Rowling finished her first book which was offered to twelve publishers. However, none of them agreed to print it. Only a year later it was finally published. This marked the beginning of changes in Joanne Rowling’s life and finally made her a famous and successful writer.
