How did the lady who wrote harry potter make it so big?
it mostly depends on what kind of genre your book is... also dont let anyone tell you that your stupid for wanting to write a book! 1. they more thn likely have never experiened the spark of inspiration required to make an artistically eveloped peice of literature like yours will undoubtedly be!! there are many rags- to riches stories in the world of writing - stephenie meyer{twilight saga}, james patterson{maximum ride legacy}, and jk rowling{harry potter} but guess what? meyer has 3 kids and was a stay-at-home mom living in pheonix, AZ. all that it took to make her famous was to have a dream that later became ch 13 of Twilight. now she recently was on tour for one of her books. she has three books that currently make up the twilight saga. the fourth is coming out the 2nd of august and is bigger than harry potter was with their 7th book!! she also is working on a complemetary series for twilight and twilight the movie{coming out 12/12/08} the hype is huge!!! as for rowling, she was sitting in a pub when she thought about how good of a story a teenage wizard would be!! she wrote the idea on the back of a napkin and started writing the next day! now she holds a multi billion dollar industry... what have we learned? well the teenager catagory is the most popular and YOU NEED A PROPER STORY. also [ and this is the case with the maximum ride series, in which the main characters have wings] abstract is more currently accepted now. i am a dedicated fan to all the authors above. i am currently writing a book myself. if you have any of your book written, emailit to me at: erikatristens@rocketmail.com erika tristens is my main characters name, mine is Shyanne Warren, i just like her name better. dont let my sophistcated vocabulary fool you, im just a sophmore in high school...well maybe we can talk later i really would love to read your writings ~luv erika

Who wrote Harry Potter's letters?
Well, you need to define which letters you are referring to.In the Harry Potter universe, the Hogwarts letters were written by Minerva McGonnagal, the Deputy Headmistress of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.However, he also received letters detailing his expulsion — which, if I remember right, were written by Mafalda Hopkirk.Of course, there were also letters written by his friends and Sirius.Essentially, however, you could say that the person who wrote the letters to Harry Potter was J. K. Rowling, who created the Harry Potter universe.EDIT:I just realised that you could possibly be referring to whether each letter was individually written by Professor McGonnagal. I honestly don't think wizards have that much free time, or that they would be that inefficient. If you look at Goblet of Fire, you have a Quick Quotes Quill, and in Order of the Phoenix, there were a whole bunch of magical pens that were forbidden, as they constituted cheating. However, I am sure that there is a pen or quill that would be able to reproduce letter after letter.
