J.K. Rowling

Harry Potters J.K. Rowling has kicked off a huge book tour in the United States where she appeared and signed over 1,600 books for kids on Monday. The Harry Potter writer appeared at the Kodak Theater to read a chapter to the audience and answer questions. Rowling stated that “This is an amazing treat for me. I really miss being able to interact directly with the readers. Everyone keeps saying it must be so onerous. Doesn’t it hurt your hand? But honestly that’s the bit I really enjoy.” This is the first book tour in the United States in seven years. The 42-year-old British author stated that after 10 years of writing to meet a deadline, she is now on vacation and has not started writing the Harry Potter encyclopedia fans have been clamoring to get their hands on. Rowling told the 1,600 children in Los Angeles that Harry Potter will be one tough story to follow up on. Rowling’s latest, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, the seventh and final book in the series, sold more than 11 million copies in the first 24 hours it was released in the U.S. and Britain. Rowling is one of the richest woman in the world because of her Harry potter series.
