I have been hearing about Rowling's address to the Harvard university graduates. It was only by accident that I chanced upon it here.
I simply enjoyed reading it and couldn't stop. The end did not disappoint me either. I am sure you will enjoy reading it too.
While I read the papers a few days back when Jeffrey Archer was in India, I remember the bit where he said 'Rowling made it after 14 attempts, but very few know that I (Jeffrey Archer) had to visit close to 17 publishers before my first best seller'
At the end, all I need to say is 'perserverence pays'
