These tweets prove every one of JK Rowling’s characters have a part of her in them
She’s shown she can hit trolls – hard.
JK Rowling’s imagination goes further than most people’s. The author has invented one of the most wide-ranging, enduring universes ever put down on paper – the wizarding world.
The creativity doesn’t stop there. She has a knack for witty tweets, sometimes bordering on the savage when it comes to trolls. So which of her tweets could have come from her characters?
1. Hermione Granger
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) September 9, 2014
This is classic Hermione – stubborn in the face of criticism, because she knows she’s doing the right thing. You go girl!
2. Nymphadora Tonks
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) July 11, 2015
Tonks is always standing up for people, but always with a good dose of sass.
3.Severus Snape
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) June 18, 2015
King of the searing put downs, J K really calls this person out in front of the entire internet. They had better hope she doesn’t bear grudges like Snape did.
4. Luna Lovegood
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) November 24, 2014
A dreamer with a strange set of beliefs, this tweet feels like something Luna would dream up. In fact, Luna became a magizoologist after leaving Hogwarts, so perhaps she’s weighing a magical otter right this moment…
5. Albus Dumbledore
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) January 26, 2017
J K Rowling is famously political, using her Twitter account to explain her world view. Dumbledore may use owls instead, but it’s basically the same thing.
6. Molly Weasley
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) March 6, 2016
Molly Weasley is the mum everyone wants and the mother figure Harry so badly needed. J K really does think so much about her fans and their different challenges in this world.
7. Fred and George Weasley
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) February 17, 2016
Fred and George are a boisterous, self-confident pair, who laugh in the face of haters. J K is doing just that in this ‘punny’ tweet.
8. Dobby
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) August 15, 2015
Always there to help anyone who needs him, Rowling encourages a fellow writer to keep pursuing her dream. Thank goodness she doesn’t employ bludgers to help, unlike her house elf creation.
9. Rubeus Hagrid
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) June 8, 2017
It would appear from J K’s Twitter feed that she shares a love of creatures great and small with our half-giant friend Hagrid. Here’s her dog – aww.
10. Harry Potter
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) September 6, 2014
Remember when Harry gave his Triwizard prize money to Fred and George to start their business? Harry didn’t tell anyone, just like J K Rowling usually keeps quiet about her charitable acts. However, on this occasion, she had to bite back.
11. Minerva McGonagall
— J.K. Rowling (@jk_rowling) June 9, 2017
The transfiguration professor takes no rubbish from anyone. A strong woman who looks out for other women, she challenges those who think women can do anything less than a man can. It just so happens Rowling feels the same.
