| | |  J.K.R. makes Forbes' Top Selling Authors List
J.K. Rowling, who made $75 million last year, came in second on Forbes’ Top Selling Authors list. Da Vinci Code author Dan Brown came in at No. 1. with $88 million. Quote:
Only a decade ago, the world had not yet heard of J.K. Rowling or her boy wizard Harry Potter. Today Rowling is the world’s sole billionaire author. Worldwide sales of her Potter books have topped 300 million copies.
Forbes also rated the Top Grossing Film Adaptations and the Harry Potter series came in at No. 1, making $3.5 billion at the box office. | |

Which is to say nothing of that whole talent bit I suppose ... I wish I was rich then I could be on Forbes too ...

That is so incredible! JKR should be number 1# definetely ahead of Da Vinci Code! I won't say anything too bad about it in for offendeding purposes, but I am strongly against that book and therefore the author with it. I love the way Harry Potter has touched the world like it has extremely touched me. HP rocks my everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
