[alejocateter111]

the megaupload link just breaks my heart hahaha

[BatsuXgeemu]

@alejocateter111 hahahahahaha! yeah!

[phlearze]

This is SOOooo weird, cos in the "a year in her life" documentary they also go into the flat where she lived while writing the boon and it's COMPLETELY different!!! AND in it she says that it's the first time she's been back there... but this was filmed way before the year in a life one...!! Am I missing something?!?!?!?????

[JoRowlingRocks]

@phlearze she lived in Gardener's Crescent (shown here) for 6 months then moved to South Lorne Place (shown in A Year in the Life) where she lived till she bought a house with the money from the American sale of Philosher's Stone.

[PopLuverGal]

Omg! Ron and Hermione met on the train just like her parents!!!!

[tallmanburns]

[xXfillyfoalXx]

[Aaronc7775]

I think my titties are to suckulent and juicy

[Mystikal22693]

She is a Genius

[teadrinkerification]

edinburrow?

[Pappylonx]

I wonder how great it must be to now live in the house where Harry Potter basically started.

[ASJyagami]

i wish they'd make a movie on JK's life story :)

[otis93gob]

Thank you Joe......... You really have made my life so much better and its not just a book to me its part of my life

[zoltron30]

i dont know.... my 9 year old had nightmares after reading the harry potter books... theres something weird about these books and the fascination behind them...

[emmadilemmasings]

@zoltron30 Some 9 year olds should NOT be reading stories like this. You should've checked them out first. My mother did not let me read them till I turned 10, and I am very thankful, I would've been so scared. The books contain several brutal murders, Hermione is tortured horribly by a sadistic woman in one chapter, Harry is forced to write with his own blood. They depict genocide, racism and cruelty.

But they are so well written and provide a great escape for many children (and adults!)

[qwertyqwertyqwertyq4]

@emmadilemmasings when does harry write in his blood, just out of interest??

[emmadilemmasings]

@qwertyqwertyqwertyq4 Umbridge and "I must not tell lies."

[qwertyqwertyqwertyq4]

@emmadilemmasings oh yes, of course. sorry, had a kind of mind blank, my bad.

and i agree with you, some kids are too young to read harry potter, especially some of the later books

[BatsuXgeemu]

@qwertyqwertyqwertyq4 when he gets punished in book five. When he writes in the paper, he generates the effect of cutting his own hand, because the ink of the pen is his own blood.

[danaandersen97]

@emmadilemmasings I read the HP books from when i could read, and yeah, i got scared but they helped me grow up, mature and become braver.

[yak6ex]

Why does it only have 13,000 hits?

[whercule06]

"All these latin words written on the inside of my diary" ... *In big letters* "Jessica" hahahahahaha

[autumnkeen56]

@FUNFUNGirlFun Haha! Ikr! She's one of THE main characters and she gets tossed in as if as an afterthought. lol!

[vampire0101265]

The whole witch craft crap is so arrogant and ignorant and just total bologna. It makes me so mad.

[xdreamoutx891]

@vampire0101265 Then why are you watching this?

[vampire0101265]

@xdreamoutx891 I mean that it was bull shit that those people were freaking out an burning the books because they said it was teaching the kids witch craft. I'm in love with the books.

[sinserto]

@vampire0101265 IKR? like wtf do they want? It wasn't hurting anyone. ugghh people like them are so annoying. they feel like everyone's always wrong and what they say is always right. They're acting like they've never done anything wrong in their lives when in fact they're the ones showing disrespect to another person.

[vampire0101265]

@sinserto I know. I agree with you completely. What's next the magic school bus is promoting witch craft. Warn the children. lol

[sinserto]

@vampire0101265 right?. but JK Rowling can handle it though.. i mean she did write Harry Potter.. the boy who was scrutinized and judged for the things he did and didn't do, the world was against him at some point, that boy who learned to ignore everyone who's been saying negative things about him and stick with the ones who do.. well he proved them all wrong in the end, just like what Jo has done. She's got this. lol

[vampire0101265]

@sinserto Yeah, I totally agree with you. I mean she has inspired me to continue with my dreams of being a writer and let me know to be strong along the way even though I know I will face criticism.

[ObliviousToBeautiful]

10:26 Now I wish Richard Harris had lived to play Dumbledore the whole way through (Don't get me wrong, Micheal Gambon is very good but I have to admit I prefer Richard Harris and it was very awful that he died) I mean, come on. That drawing looks JUST like him!

[ObliviousToBeautiful]

"I visualized the platforms wrong. I was in Manchester, I couldn't check."

I love that part =)

[kcbzmatt]

lmao!! JK: THAT!! is the history of the death eaters :D gotta love her <3

[MimmiProduction]

Thank you so much for the downloading link. Its a great story

[eviethecyborg]

Her drawings are AMAZING.

[1LG1116]

@eviethecyborg I agree!! i'd love to see more of them!

[231thedream]

is it just me or is the music at 5:20 from the home alone movies?

[emmadilemmasings]

@231thedream That song is in the Harry Potter movies quite a few times, so no, I don't think so...

[231thedream]

i love the quality of this video is great compared to a lot of the other bios. thanks so much!

[Justinv33]

she is really Inspiring!

[ryanwilk0]

How can I not have seen this until now?!

[231thedream]

i remember when this first aired.

[FonsChau]

i would pay so much to live in a place where she lived in. even if its a really small little room, this is the place where harry potter was born.

[KristaRulezD00d]

Thanks for uploading this!! :D

[JRS1982]

Amazing story. But I hate you, JK Rowling.

[AndiKeepSmile]

@JRS1982 why? :(

[JRS1982]

@AndiKeepSmile She has made an incredible book series that I cannot stand. It's more novel than "Twilight," which is complete garbage.

[KemmersFilms]

@JRS1982 nobody gives a shit about your horrible opinions.

[JRS1982]

@KemmersFilms No, VERYONE gives a shit about my horrible opinions.

[KemmersFilms]

@JRS1982 *everyone.

[blossom114]

@JRS1982Are you jealous because she has loads of money? She gives a shit ton of it away to charity. Someone who hates someone that they don't know is either A. Completely jealous or B. A complete moron. I'd wager you're both.

You don't have to like the books, but saying you hate her when you don't even know her makes you look like a raving lunatic.

[sukisyo7]

Her story is very inspiring.

[weblearner115]

@sukisyo7 Yes, it is. That's for your comment!

[xbertocoaylax]

@sukisyo7 Exactly what I was gonna say.

[weblearner115]

No problem. It's my pleasure. ;D

[facebookgamehacks]

Thanks fo this she is such a nice person.

[weblearner115]

Yeah, I know what you mean, lol. That's the first thing that I thought!

[potterbond]

all of that information on the magical world... WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME!!!!!!! i want to know every single thing thats in those discarded papers and notebooks and folders! show me NOW! ... please... haha! ;)

[GenieBella]

@potterbond

[RebelstarDawn]

@potterbond Pottermooooore! *so excited for it*
