Introduction:
We
all know and very familiar with Harry Potter, Hermoine Granger, Ron Weasley and
even the villain, Lord Voldemort a.k.a. Tom Riddle. We have seen movies
starting from Harry Potter and the
Sorcerer’s Stone up to Harry Potter
and the Order of the Phoenix. We
have witnessed the adventures of Harry Potter and his friends in the world of
witchcraft and wizardry. We have also seen how Harry was treated by the
Muggles. There are so many to mention it here. These are great movies of
fantasy, aren’t they? But, they originated in the book series!
Now, in this term paper, let us know
the woman behind these successful stories of Harry Potter. She is Joanne
Rowling a.k.a. J. K. Rowling, her pen name.
In the website of Time Magazine,
J. K Rowling is one of the runner-up in the “Person of the Year 2007”. “The Harry Potter series
has sold 400 million copies worldwide and made its creator one of the
wealthiest and most influential people in the world…”, Time said. [1]
But, who actually is J. K. Rowling,
aside from being the author of best-selling Harry Potter book series? What was
her life before? How did she able to reach the top? And what are her plans now
that the book series is about to end?
In this term paper, we will have an
in-depth about the life of the famous author, the first woman who become a
billionaire just by writing a book…

Guys, you might wonder, why I've been asking this much? It's been 5 years ago since I studied English 1 and now I resume college, I jumpstart in English 2 because my English 1 was accredited in my course (I need/have to... to save money on my monthly school fees... I'm an Information Technology Student).
Thank you in advance.....
