 J. K. Rowling

We all know her and if not then I am sure that you have heard the name of the Harry Potter series. Those were
best selling books that were written very creatively and the storyline was beyond imagination. People loved the
series very much and the series came out in films too. Those movies hit the box office and we’re popular among
everyone.

Harry Potter book got the title of the fastest-selling book of fiction in 24 hours in a Guinness book which
was a great achievement for the author. It made a huge fan following and that is why their last book Harry
Potter and Deathly Hallows became the fastest-selling book and its 8.3 million copies were sold after it was
released. Gosh! That’s a huge number though. This was the journey of J. K. Bowling for the Guinness world
record.

Joanne Rowling CH OBE FRSL (/ˈroʊlɪŋ/ "rolling";[1] born 31 July 1965), also known by


her pen name J. K. Rowling, is a British author and philanthropist. She wrote Harry Potter, a
seven-volume children's fantasy series published from 1997 to 2007. The series has sold
over 500 million copies, been translated into at least 70 languages, and spawned a global
media franchise including films and video games. The Casual Vacancy (2012) was her first
novel for adults. She writes Cormoran Strike, an ongoing crime fiction series, as Robert
Galbraith.
Born in Yate, Gloucestershire, Rowling was working as a researcher and bilingual secretary
for Amnesty International in 1990 when she conceived the idea for the Harry Potter series
while on a delayed train from Manchester to London. The seven-year period that followed
saw the death of her mother, birth of her first child, divorce from her first husband, and
relative poverty until the first novel in the series, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone,
was published in 1997. There were six sequels, of which the last was released in 2007. By
2008, Forbes had named her the world's highest-paid author.
Rowling concluded the Harry Potter series with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (2007).
The novels follow a boy called Harry Potter as he attends Hogwarts, a school for wizards,
and battles Lord Voldemort. Death and the divide between good and evil are the central
themes of the series. Its influences include: Bildungsroman (the coming-of-age
genre), school stories, fairy tales, and Christian allegory. The series revived fantasy as a
genre in the children's market, spawned a host of imitators, and inspired an active fandom.
Critical reception has been more mixed. Many reviewers see Rowling's writing as
conventional; some regard her portrayal of gender and social division as regressive. There
were also religious debates over Harry Potter.
Rowling has won many accolades for her work. She has received an OBE and made
a Companion of Honour for services to literature and philanthropy. Harry Potter brought her
wealth and recognition that she has used to advance philanthropic endeavours and political
causes. She co-founded the charity Lumos and established the Volant Charitable Trust,
named after her mother. Rowling's charitable giving centres on medical causes and
supporting at-risk women and children. In politics, she has donated to Britain's Labour
Party and opposed Scottish independence and Brexit. Since late 2019, she has publicly
expressed her opinions on transgender people and related civil rights. These have been
criticised as transphobic by LGBT rights organisations and some feminists, but have
received support from other feminists and individuals.

 Agatha Christie

Agatha Christie, also known as the Queen of Mystery, is one of the best authors in history. She holds not one
but different titles in the Guinness record book. People loved the books she published which included detective
novels and many short stories and she holds the title of best selling fiction writer of all time and her novels
have sold more than a billion copies. Besides this record, she also holds the record for penning the world’s
thickest book. In 2009 Harper Collins published a collection of Christie’s Miss Marple stories comprising 12
novels and 20 short stories.

The collection was of sixty-eight crimes committed, sixty-eight secrets, twenty-two false accusations,
twenty-one romances, and 143 cups of tea consumed. All this collection was 4.032 pages which were worth
one’s lifetime entertainment. It weighed more than 15 pounds and was priced at 1500 dollars. This was her
achievement and though she earned the title of penning the world’s thickest book.

Dame Agatha Mary Clarissa Christie, Lady Mallowan, DBE (née Miller; 15 September


1890 – 12 January 1976) was an English writer known for her 66 detective novels and 14
short story collections, particularly those revolving around fictional detectives Hercule
Poirot and Miss Marple. She also wrote the world's longest-running play, the murder
mystery The Mousetrap, which has been performed in the West End since 1952. A writer
during the "Golden Age of Detective Fiction", Christie has been called the "Queen of Crime".
She also wrote six novels under the pseudonym Mary Westmacott. In 1971, she was made
a Dame (DBE) by Queen Elizabeth II for her contributions to literature. Guinness World
Records lists Christie as the best-selling fiction writer of all time, her novels having sold more
than two billion copies.
Christie was born into a wealthy upper middle class family in Torquay, Devon, and was
largely home-schooled. She was initially an unsuccessful writer with six consecutive
rejections, but this changed in 1920 when The Mysterious Affair at Styles, featuring detective
Hercule Poirot, was published. Her first husband was Archibald Christie; they married in
1914 and had one child before divorcing in 1928. Following the breakdown of her marriage
in 1926 she made international headlines by going missing for eleven days. During both
World Wars, she served in hospital dispensaries, acquiring a thorough knowledge of the
poisons that featured in many of her novels, short stories, and plays. Following her marriage
to archaeologist Max Mallowan in 1930, she spent several months each year on digs in the
Middle East and used her first-hand knowledge of this profession in her fiction.
According to UNESCO's Index Translationum, she remains the most-translated individual
author.[1] Her novel And Then There Were None is one of the top-selling books of all time,
with approximately 100 million copies sold. Christie's stage play The Mousetrap holds the
world record for the longest initial run. It opened at the Ambassadors Theatre in the West
End on 25 November 1952, and by September 2018 there had been more than 27,500
performances. The play was temporarily closed in March 2020 because of COVID-19
lockdowns in London before it reopened in May 2021.
In 1955, Christie was the first recipient of the Mystery Writers of America's Grand Master
Award. Later that year, Witness for the Prosecution received an Edgar Award for best play.
In 2013, she was voted the best crime writer and The Murder of Roger Ackroyd the best
crime novel ever by 600 professional novelists of the Crime Writers' Association. In
September 2015, And Then There Were None was named the "World's Favourite Christie"
in a vote sponsored by the author's estate.[2] Many of Christie's books and short stories have
been adapted for television, radio, video games, and graphic novels. More than 30 feature films are
based on her work.
