My favourite author is actually the author of harry potter,J.k rowling. Aside from writing the Potter novels, Rowling is equally famous for her "rags to riches" life story, in which she progressed from living on welfare to multi-millionaire status within five years. This made me interested in her life as i wonder how can a book made her millionaire. She has become a notable philantrophist, supporting such charities as Comic Relief, One Parent Families and the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Great Britain. Hence she has not only become my favourite author but as well as my idol.
Five interesting facts
1) Her real name is Joanne Rowling.
2) She is a single parent.
3) She is the first person to become US dollar millioniare by wrting stories.
4) She almost commited suicide in 1994
5) Her Harry Potter series have gain worldwide fame and have sold nearly 400 million copies.
