Who's the world highest paid author??


Who do you think s the highest paid author?? The answer is, JK Rowling!! She need a bigger bank in Gringotts soon, after she's named the world's best-paid author!! And she's the book "Harry Potter"'s author!!The creator of Harry Potter earned £170m last year, which means she banked £5 every single second!
The final book in the Harry Potter series, The Deathly Hallows, came out a very high sell in 2007 and sold 15 million copies in the first 24 hours it was on sale.So far the Potter books have sold more than 400 million copies and been translated into 67 languages!!
People who hadn't read "Harry Potter" I suggest you read it quickly!!

£5 every second!? wow! I heard that Celine Dion is a singer that also has a lot of pay. I think about 500NT every seconds. (I heard it from someone...) anyway, nice blog posts!
