How did JK Rowling think of Harry Potter?
- She went to Harry Potter World and then decided that maybe she should write a book about that, so she asked permission and made the figures, models and more words in a popular, wizarding book which turned into eight amazing movies.
- She met Harry and gave him a long, very detailed interview about his life, but like Rita Skeeter, she twisted and turned it until it was perfectly magical and full of lies to attract more readers
- She was sleeping in her bed, after a long, tiring and boring day working as a secretary for Amnesty International. She was having a peaceful dream about bunnies, unicorns, flowers and rainbows. Suddenly, a menacing greenish skinned figure came bursting into her dream, brandishing a phoenix feather wand and shouting 'AVADA KEDAVRA!'. All the animals and flowers died and the man reduced to smoke, but a baby boy named Harry Potter sat there, looking and crying because his parents were dead. He also had a lighting scar on his forehead because the evil man (Voldemort) tried to kill him. Then he heard a roaring motorbike and a man came... but then he heard giant footsteps and a giant man named Hagrid rescued him from a house. He dropped him off at his aunt and uncles's and on his eleventh
- JK Rowling was sitting on a delayed train from King's Cross, gazing, bored, out of the window right next to her., thinking that when the train stopped she would be able to buy a delicious coconut, strawberry, frozen banana and honeyed nut ice cream from Florean Fortescue's shop in Diagon Alley. Where's Diagon Alley? She then thought. What about... Diagon Alley is a place where wizards and witches shop! And there could be a boy named Harry Potter who has a lightning scar on his forehead because a Dark Lord named Voldemort tried killing him! A giant man then takes him to his too-normal aunt and uncle. He gets to a wizard school - Hogwarts - by train at King's Cross!
