The reason why she is the GOAT is because she focused on one character’s point of view. She created beautiful supporting characters, but she didn’t get too far from Harry. That’s the difference between her and Tolkien and Sanderson and Jordan. Also Martin. Her genius is keeping the center on one character. Honestly if she wrote a book based on Hermione as minister of magic all from her point of view but third person giving her leeway (as she has always done) everyone would read it. CB strike is so similar on that way, although in that one Robin gets a lot of the main character time too. And it works. She’s so not confusing. That is why she is the GOAT.

After the first five seconds I know that I will be left wanting J.K. Rowling's Philosophy references.

Someone who worked for me slipped me a book that she got at a Scholastic Book Sale...um, like the book seller in grade school? She told me to shut up and read it (yes, staff treated me with all the respect I deserved). I don't care for fantasy, and kids growing up and learning about life is not my cup of tea either. Three days later, interrupted by work, including a double-shift emergency cover, and I had Harry finished. I had fantasized from childhood to write. I was told all through school that I was a great writer--but who doesn't hear praise when loved ones want me to know how important they are to me. J.R. Rowling is a blinding star in my mind! She has written absolutely the most charming books of any kind in a long time. Books that fit any age group but written especially for the kids that are feeling awkward in their own shoes. Her gifts there were quite enough to dazzle the world, but what I love most about her is how centered she is though she says clearly, she feels that she is not. Yet, through her own misgivings and doubt, she shares all of it, and publicly. As writers, or wanna-be writers, to hear her story of her doubts about herself but with no doubts about her writing abilities, and how she perceived. Her story is not my story but her quest is and how she made her way through all the odds to publish is my takeaway. I would be lying if I didn't make careful notes in my mind of how she has and does handle herself in celebrity. Who knows? There is a chance, after all, her example might come in handy. You can see the end of that trope. And I would love to tell you I closed my first deal on this great idea I have. Not yet. I have no fantasies about the industry, oh, boy, no! I've spent forty plus years in business settings and I know there are no favors when one talks about costs for everything to go from story, to book, advertising, publicity, distribution, and projected revenues, final sales, losses...and hopefully profits. Can anyone imagine success in that? Can an author plan now for graduation addresses and bon mots for the interview shows yet...I mean, just outline some ideas...? Not, and be an author, I've concluded. Saying that I have an outline (or two) lined up, and a couple of storyboards to get me through a couple of sticky plot points? I wish. As I watch programs like this--and especially Rowling! If there were ever an author, I'd love to buy a cup of tea for and not let her go... I am going through each of these "Tips" interviews not as an obligation, but rather out of curiosity. If I sat down with some sort of pre-constructed check list to do this, it would squeeze the life out of my curious mind that finds things interesting in the little corners of the world and minds of the popular creatures on planet Earth at the moment. Curiosity drives a good observer and a good writer. For the longest time I thought I had no ability whatsoever at describing mood and place as I wrote interactions between characters I was developing. Reflecting on it, I find that indeed, I had some talent at it. What I didn't see, myopic as we are in our own work and I especially, was these wispy, but important details that carry the dialogue and augment the scene to further it down the story. I was grinding gears trying to find a way to build this into my writing. It was there all along. I didn't recognize that, yes, I already knew how important this was--that was why I was in this dither, right? I wasn't recognizing that the writer part in my brain could and would not write dialogue without place, time and where this dialogue would go to connect to the next beat of my story. Can you imagine that, though? It was such a telling moment. Everything I had ty or so.ped had a place, mood, and a path to the next beat written in. It was instinctive (OK, most times~). I can't write without it, instinctively. Let me put this in perspective. I have written daily since I was seven. Not out some rule. I had WAY too many words, thoughts and oh so many opinions in my head. I had to get them out of my system. I think that is how writers roll. They instinctively are sponges. They instinctively have some reason, something that drives them to write. Not on a calendar or goal with specific quotas. I'm not saying that those bits and other reminders that we should have fun, but it's not a career until in sells and other pearls of wisdom. For me, I know that I can slither out of a deadline or anything else I consider important with charm, and it hurts my soul that I can sweet-talk myself. But if I slip out of my desk chair and go out in the yard to giggle and scold underperforming flowers, I do so therapeutically. Allow the ten-year-old in me that refuses to grow up the right to be so. For me, the last fifty years of my life have been at the pleasure of others; this is My Time. Don't wait until retirement to decide to let this important part of yourself wither with time. I regret that I didn't let this particular child out until now, nor a bunch of kids in my head and heart not have the same pleasure including the big kid typing write here. I don't regret those past years, guys. There is not a thing I can do about time that is past other than learn from it. There is, however, a bunch of stories to write about from it. My sister who has no talent whatsoever as a writer did pen a jewel, so I guess in that sense, we all have the capability at writing. Her words, at least to the comedian and writer within me, have proved oh-so-true and something I keep in my heart to survive and use whenever possible (after they put the fire out on my house), "The bigger the disaster is in your life, the better, with time, the story gets. Don't waste it." For those that still count words as a way of checking that you type regularly and how much; especially if you are digging for enough words on days the well is dry? I just typed a little over 900 words. Plus, these extra words. I hope I'm not "wasting my time." Stephan King still counts pages typed. I don't. Maybe I need to find a new career? I don't think so. Great ideas for me, I take in. Knowing yourself in the clearest light you can, who you are and what you can, do, put off and why. I always have to ask that question myself. If I don't know why, I keep working. If the answer is true and I can give myself a good solid idea when and why I'm coming back to the keyboard. If I can do that, I can have a recess. If I am particularly good, efficient and story-resourceful, I can have a Little Debbie snack cake. Yeah, 15 pounds. I sit, do good work and eat snack cakes. Ish. I hope to make a career out of it so I can buy fashionable muumuus for book signings.

#3 Know Everything About Your World, is something that is definitely getting glossed over in a lot of today's entertainment. I'm glad Rowling showed her process there of just building a world in as much detail as possible so that what finally makes it's way into the actual literature has substance and feels real to the consumer. I've seen so many recent productions in anime, Hollywood, and in video games, that have characters that are more caricature and cliches. Worlds that are random references slapped together with no cohesion between their parts. Elements that have no explanation why they are there. It's so bad that when an author produces something well thought out with a story planned in advance, the viewers act like it's a work of god tier genius. It's not. It's just what any world builder is SUPPOSED to do.

REALLY interesting advice here. I wonder what pantsers think of her saying that you should plot meticulously. I can remember that great development in 'Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets'. I have tried plotting, but not to the degree that Rowling has in her notebooks. This makes me think I should change tack and try a more detailed grid. The 'Harry Potter' series is a great example for writing red herrings and foreshadowing-- I always admired that about Rowling's work. Has anyone seen the same thing in her Galbraith books? Excellent comments on the importance of failure.

Nah I think she was trying to say why she started writing and what it has done for her.

My takeaway from all these videos is that the only why I can know what I want to know is through trial and error. There is no other way around it. All I can do is write the story and then listen to it using some text-reading tool and see if it gives out the meaning that I wanted it to at the end of a chapter. As great literary agent that I don't know the name of said, "Writing is reading, then writing, and reading again, and writing some more. You edit once you are done and then look back to see the story that you built by your own hands."

I keep my brain vomit papers in a 3 ring binder to keep it organized. I can then arrange it in the order of book and use it as my muse as I go along. I deeply feel all those random pages of frenzied jotting.

Amazing brilliant woman knows the truth speaks it and doesnt care what the rest of the little crybabies in lbgqt etc think.

A brilliant writer 👍

Amazing. Truly amazing. Well said and done JK!

I love this channel and I cried during this video. Thank you very much for doing it.

Love you JK forever, thank you for creating HP universe ❤🎉

Jk Rowling has some great ideas here, she is a fab nice lady, one of the greatest female writers, or writers of any gender in British history.

Steady on. She is a wonderful story teller but writer? What insights into the human condition has she provided that are not plot driven? And her prose is lacking when compared to the greats of Eng. Lit. And I think she would agree, she is very honest. I love her success, proud that she's British and I admire her integrity. But there's no need to lose all perspective.

The scenes go 1, 3, 3 ?

perseverance holds more water than smart""

Love it!

On point 3. "Know everything about your story work": often my Background Material is 100% - 150% the length of the story itself. On piont 7. "The urge to write comes from [...] unhappy teenage years": I wish I could go back to my teenage years and just enjoy life with my friends. And yet I write to process all the things that have pissed me off in the past.

Shes awesome!! She has improved this world with her creations.

I am writing a book too can I get an advice that a book should be of how many pages ??

Most first time writers start with a book of 200 or 250 at the most with their first book. But with that said I don't understand how J.K. Rowling became a billionaire by just writing Harry Potter a children's book. She used to be very poor and she written Harry Potter than all of a sudden she was on Oprah Winfrey's show. I'm a writer myself I write screenplays, tv show scripts novels and middle grade books that's unpublished. I live with my parents and I'm very poor just like how she was but let's say of she was on Oprah then why haven't other authors been on her show or not billionaires? That's so strange because she's a billionaire and most authors make less than people who works at Burger King and McDonald's. Mcdonald's employees make $12.50/hr and book writers make way less than that, so I don't understand how J.k. Rowling is a billionaire. Even screenwriters don't make as much as her books did. Screenwriters can earn $60,000 from writing a script. I know my grammar and punctuation isn't all that great, but I am a writer and I just don't see how she's a billionaire yes I will make some kind of money from my writing but I don't see myself being on Oprah Winfrey's show or becoming a billionaire I might become worth $400,000 at the most, but I would not earn anything higher than that.

I am okay with failing be default . I do not want to be a burden to anyone and if I have a job I want to work hard at it other wise I am stealing so putting that much effort into anything leaves very little time for other things . And if you have time for other things then I have to ask you are you really giving 100 percent to the job

3rd tip came right after 1st?

Her Harvard speech will always mean so much to me.
