I'm sure that many of you don't need reminding of how great J.K. Rowling is. Being the author behind the Harry Potter series, aka the most intently followed, immeasurably loved and all-around incredible work of fiction ever, is one thing. But J.K. also has a lot to say about things that go down beyond the wizarding world, and we're totally here for it.
In case you're late to the party, Rowling is a bit of a Twitter legend. The sassiest, most consistently on point of Twitter legends, in fact. And there's not a troll or hater that can take her. So, we've used J.K. Rowling's birthday (31 July) as an excuse to look back at some of her finest Twitter moments. Read on for a lesson in winning on the internet.
