~ J.K. Rowling
J.K. Rowling is a popular author who lives in England. As a child J.k. Rowling would often write fantasy stories, which she would usually read to her sister and had aspired to be an author ever since then. She has written the Harry Potter series and has become one of the most well known authors in the world. The Harry Potter books have gained worldwide attention and sold more than 400 million copies. I chose this quote because I respected how she wrote only for herself and didn't let the pressures of others around her dictate what she wrote. The quote shows that she wasn't trying to impress anyone and didnt care what other people thought, she was confident that if she stuck to writing what she wanted to that she would be successful in the end. It also proves that the best literature pieces are those that are written from the writer's own feelings and not something that is fabricated in hopes of entertaining the reader. J.K. Rowling wasn't writing to impress the reader, she was writing to impress herself and by sticking to that moto she became very successful. I felt what Rolwing stated in her quote is something we should all live by, don't do things in life because you feel the need to impress someone, whatever you do should be for yourself and no one but yourself and its clear thats what J.K. Rowling does when she writes.
She has become quite a success. Her personal history is an interesting one.
