5. J.K. Rowling – The iconic writer of the Harry Potter series, which has resulted in the sale of more than 400 million books, is also responsible for the most successful and lucrative book-based film series in history. However, early in her career as an author, Rowling received endless rejections from publishers. Even her famous Harry Potter manuscript was rejected outright for reasons, such as, ”It is far too long for a children’s book” or, ”Children books never make any money.” Her story is even more inspiring when you realize that she was a divorced single mother who was living on welfare when her career as a writer began.
5. J.K.罗琳（J.K. Rowling）——《哈利·波特》系列小说的传奇作者，该部小说在全球销售了超过4亿册，同时催生了历史上基于小说改编的最成功、最受欢迎的电影系列。然而，在罗琳作者生涯的早期，她被出版商无数次地拒绝。甚至她闻名全球的《哈利·波特》原稿在最初也因多个原因被出版商拒之门外，例如，“对于一本儿童读物来说，这实在太长了。”或者，“儿童读物从来不挣钱。”在你意识到她当时是一位离了婚的单身母亲，在开始写作的时候，她依靠失业救济过日子后，她的故事甚至更加励志。
