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.

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.....
