The most amazing part of this book was that, this famous book series were rejected 12 times again and again by the publisher company as the publishers weren’t satisfied with the length and they also told that the content was bit too old fashioned. But, later on once it was published, all of the publishers were extremely surprised and now there are more than 450 million of copies sold.! The outstanding talent and dedication of J.K.Rowling made her a billionaire. Movies of Harry Potter was also created too. So, can you guess the exact reason as to “Why was Harry Potter rejected 12 times?”, This is so interesting? Isn’t it?

Conspiracy made one of the main reasons for rejecting the book by the publishers. When Harry Potter was a child, he survived the deadly curse inflicted on him by one of the most powerful wizards in the world of magic. When Harry Potter was a young boy, he fights with the wizard just like to get revenge. So, this is what the story is all about.

So, the main character, a boy named “Harry”, did not introduce at the beginning of the book by J.K Rowling. That was also another reason for the rejection by the publishers.

However there is one thing I am sure of, is that, many people during that time believed that, with this Harry Potter series, children became more arrogant and went behind myths of ghosts and stared to curse each other. There were also some religious aspects where this was to be rejected. Also, as Harry Potter was quite an arrogant boy, during his childhood, some people of different cultures believed that this would influence their children in a bad way.

From this, there’s an important lesson that we should take into our lives. That is, no matter whoever says or criticizes your goals and achievements you’ve obtained, unless you know that the thing you’ve done has made more than 75% of good to you and the others, that means you’ve achieved your success through it. In this journey of life, we meet People of different ideas and aspects, so we should be intelligent enough to differentiate.

Thank you!!!

J. K. Rowling's life story is really inspiring and her HP series is infinity level of wow.

Yes, HP series is beyond the infinity level.

I think such decision are made mainly on a commercial basis. The people who read the manuscripts from unknown writers evaluate what may sell well, and what will not sell.
And they are not always right, despite the experience they have in the business. For example, did you know that the first novels by Agatha Christie were also rejected by publishers?

Oh really, I never know that.

Yes it is. This is one of my favorite film series that i have seen. Failure, rejection are the keys to success and this proved it again.

Yes, there are lot to gain of her life story. Never look behind until you achieve your goal.
