From Welfare to Worldwide Fame
J.K. Rowling’s journey to success is a story of resilience and passion. Despite holding a degree in French and Classics from the University of Exeter, Rowling faced immense challenges in the 1990s. As a single mother on welfare in Scotland, she struggled to make ends meet. Amidst financial hardship and a lack of stable housing, Rowling found solace in writing. She worked on her first Harry Potter novel over five years, often writing in local cafés.
