1997 was a big year for J.K. Rowling.

A thousand copies of Harry Potter and teen dancing on webcam sex video webcamthe Philosopher's Stone, the book that would launch a mind-blowing literary empire, were published in June 1997. The rest is history.

But before that, Rowling struggled to finish that first novel. She couldn't find work as a teacher, and she was living on benefits, trying to take care of her daughter and find time to write the story in her head.

So when Rowling saw the question put forth by freelance journalist Jane Merrick, that particular year must have resonated strongly with her.

As for public speaking, she's addressed that phobia before.

We'd say it cured her. She's also given a TED Talk and was the speaker at the 2008 Harvard Commencement.

Thanks for all the life advice, J.K. Rowling... and get back to writing Fantastic Beasts 2!
