| J K Rowling |
It
was JK Rowling's birthday on 31 July
1965. So today she will turn 47! Still young but so rich as a result of her
undoubted talent and creativity. And
quite beautiful too, going by this picture.
I
have read all the Harry Potter's and enjoyed them. I don't think of them as just books for
kids. There is something special about
the way she mixes the non magical world with the magical one. I enjoy that much more than books which are
entirely in the fantasy realm.
I
am looking forward to her first book written specially for adults – The Casual
Vacancy. It will be out at the end of
September.
Did
you know that her middle name does not start with a "k"? In fact she didn't have a middle name. Her publisher suggested she add an initial so
that it wasn't clear to her initial target market (young boys) that the writer
was a woman! And then, of course, she
got stuck with it.
I so admire her. She's so incredibly talented. I too I'm looking forward to reading that book. :)
ReplyDelete:) Looking forward to her new book as well!
