The success of Joan Rowling can be called phenomenal as she has become the first author in the world to earn $1 billion by publishing fairytales. She is now spending a great part of her earnings on charity, confronting poverty and diseases. The plot of the book was invented while she was on the train from Manchester to London. When the publisher has first agreed to bring out her book, she has awarded her 1500 pounds together with a friendly piece of advice — to find a stable job. He was unaware of the fact that the young writer would be able to make money of writing books. Joann has demonstrated the opposite - having published a series of amazing fairytales, she has motivated the so-called non-reading people get back to reading.
