In 1990, J.K. Rowling was travelling on delayed train from Manchester to London. She imagined the character Harry Potter with glasses, messy hair and a lightning bolt scar on his forehead. He had magical powers but did not know he was a wizard.
Rowling began writing immediately and continued working on the novel until 1995, when she worked to get it published. Bloomsbury published the book in 1997.

∙ 8y agoHarry Potter got the Philosopher's Stone by looking into the Mirror of Erised, and it appeared in his pocket. He was able to get the stone because he merely wanted it, not because he was planning on using it. His intentions were good, therefore he was granted the stone.

∙ 8y agoJ.K. Rowling first came up with the idea on a train from Manchester to London, England. She then began to write the series that evening and continued to do so for the next several years during her time in both England and Portugal. When she left Portugal, Rowling moved to Edinburgh, Scotland where the majority of the series was written.
Most of the time she wrote in cafes, one of which is called the Elephant House and is in the centre of Edinburgh city centre.

When Harry looked into the Mirror, his hearts deepest desire was to have the philosopher's stone so that Lord Voldemort could not return. As he wasn't interested in using it for his own interest, the mirror gave it to him.
