Rowling came up with her "Harry Potter" idea on a train moving from Manchester to London. Over the years, she worked on this genius idea and put it into reality.
In 1997, Rowling was able to publish her first Harry Potter book, "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone." She released her second book, "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets," in 1998.
