J.K.Rowling is now the world’s richest author according to the Forbes rankings, almost a decade after she last topped it.  
 

Forbes estimates that Rowling earned $95m in the year 2016 - 2017 (May). This figure is the equivalent of more than $180 per minute, thanks to the sensational sales of her play script, Harry Potter, and the Cursed Child.


When the Harry Potter sequel was released last summer, it sold more than 680,000 print copies in the UK in the first three days alone and became the fastest selling book since the final Harry Potter novel.


Rowling’s earnings have been boosted with the release of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, a film set in the Harry Potter world for which she wrote the script, which was published in November.
