    So she seems to have wrote about 14 books worth of material (with pictures!) to publish 7 books of legendary status.
    Take away? She didn't write Harry Potter for you to enjoy, she created a whole magical world for herself to imaginarily live in for herself, and she hoped to make a little money from it maybe. This is exactly why it feels like a real world, because it is virtually, complete with complete histories for everything of importance through the whole Harry Potter 7 book story! (She had this all mapped out before she even published her first book!!!!)

      The amazing thing is that as you go through the books you realize that she must have worked everything out meticulously from the very beginning. And this video is proof. I'm not saying she's on a par with Tolstoy, but what she accomplished with the HP series was truly awe-inspiring. Worthy of all the fame and money that have come her way. Unfortunately, the movies don't begin to do justice to the level of detail in the books. In this instant gratification culture, I hope they don't eventually usurp the books as "canon".

    • @thomasrainbow
      @thomasrainbow 6 років тому +13

      Right! She did it for herself that's why the stories are so fulfilling and compelling. Also didn't she start imagining and writing them during a very rough period in her life? I think she's so inspiring and shows that you too can create something and bring it to life even in your darkest moments of life and other people can enjoy it.

      Grindelwald was propaly suposed to Do suicide after his defeat like Hitler.

    The fact that she's such an incredible artist as well really takes the cake. I'm also a writer so I completely understand the need to draw the characters, except I can't draw to save my life. I've gone so far as to dedicate a room of my house to the diagrams I built of what the different kingdoms in my story look like. This 'mass of waste paper' as she calls it is totally relatable.

      J Rowling is a plagiarist and I know the facts. If you intend writing novels than being actively employed then do your own work and write-up your own stories. I can tell you it is very damaging to the real author of a story that gets stolen and presented by a foreign author to the original creator. Jo Rowling did not originate, create, or form the Harry Potter stories, their main characters, creatures, features, main characters names, creatures names or other names such as HOGWARTS, Buckbeak, Gillyweed and she didn't create HOGWARTS Castle or any of the title names of the released novels in the series either. I did and a whole lot more. The information I have revealed is true but plagiarism and how it was made to appear to the readers and public has meant that I am not believed but the truth will reveal itself to those who are really interested in knowing the real origin of the stories I am the creator of that others have taken credits for. My poem THE LIAR BIRD reveals the true origins of Harry Potter. Have a nice day. My author name is J K Rawling. Don't get it mixed up with that of the plagiarist.

I liked the signs graphic appearance and thought it was much like my drawing of a phoenix horse with wings. I had also drawn a bird phoenix.

    It was when I saw "The Philosopher's Stone" on my television several years after I had seen the film previewed on my television in 2001 and not before hand. Jo Rowling released the first novel in England and as I didn't generally buy novels I had no knowledge of the novels release in England or in Australia. Time waits for no man and so years passed quickly and in those years Jo Rowling was writing-out the story-lines to my stories. The were graphically drafted with much of the content named!

    I am referring to the Harry Potter set of story title names here: The primary story was always my main story that I built upon each day by the addition of drawings but I didn't name my story until it was nearly ready for final setting out with character names and graphic art for use in the stories cover art. If you now use some logic as you read what I reveal to you then you may imagine my effort and method I used to make up the series of title names you are now very familiar with. (All titles)

    Truth is ineradicable. That is the saddest thing about it. You must search for Travels with Li Po to find it.
