Despite his eventual fame, Harry Potter did not find a publisher straight out of the gate.
Imagine if J.K. Rowling had given up on the idea when she received rejection after rejection:
* The world would never have met Dumbledore or Dobby the House Elf.
* Or wandered the corridors of Hogwarts or Diagon Alley.
* And none of us would know how to play Quidditch.
Rowling kept pitching her story until she found a publisher who saw in her stories what readers did ~ a spellbinding read.
Aah . . . that’s better!
