At one time, she could barely pay the rent and care for her daughter, and now she is one of the richest women in England and has raised and donated millions to various charities. She has also inspired countless children and adults, including me, to love reading and writing. Although she could keep this wealth for herself and her family, she continues to help those in need.
My hero is J.K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter books. When I read my first one, I was impressed with the creativity and the imagination she put into it. But when I learned that the author was a woman and that she believed in her books despite many rejections from publishers in earlier years, I became inspired that I can do the same.
I have often dreamed of becoming an author and I love to read and write in my spare time. J.K. Rowling not only gives me hope that I can be an author, but she has amazed others by turning non-readers into readers. There have been articles in which parents report that their children never liked to read but now they can't wait for the next Harry Potter book to come out.
admire JK Rowling since Harry Potter appeared and every time she writes and publishes a book, I always buy it. Because of her I have come to like reading, especially novels. I also admire her imagination. She taught me to imagine, life is your creation!
I really admire JK Rowling's writing. Knowing that we have such a creative force as the Patron of the Multiple Sclerosis Society makes me even more memorable to read her writing wizardry! Many thanks from a South African Multiple Sclerosis survivor and potential scribe!
when reading her Harry Potter books I am always filled with wonder and delight and can never put the book down. I like her imagination and her creative skills and one day I hope to be like her
