After graduating from the University of Exeter, Rowling moved to Portugal in 1990 to teach English. She
later married Jorge Arantes and had a daughter, Jessica, before their divorce. Rowling then moved to Edinburgh
with her daughter. While struggling as a single mother, Rowling began writing the first Harry Potter book. The
idea came to her on a train in 1990.
Despite getting several rejections, Rowling finally sold her first book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's
Stone for the equivalent of about $4,000; it hit shelves in June 1997. The second book in the Harry Potter series,
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, came out in July 1998. The third book in Rowling's series, Harry
Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, hit shelves in July 1999. In July 2000, the fourth volume in the series,
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire was published and became the fastest- selling book in 24 hours ever. After
a postponed release date, the fifth installment, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, hit bookstores in
June 2003. The sixth installment, which was released in July 2005, sold 6.9 million copies in the United States
in its first 24 hours. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince was the biggest opening in publishing history.
The seventh book in the Harry Potter series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was released in July
2007, marking the conclusion of the series. Rowling has no plans for more Harry Potter books, but she
hasn't entirely ruled out the possibility.
