Before teaching Defence Against the Dark Arts, what did Professor Quirrell teach?

J. K. Rowling

She has donated over 10 million pounds to research at the University of Edinburgh, currently has her CH, her OBE, her HonFRSE, her FRCPE, and her FRSL. Her name, by the way, is actually Joanne Rowling. J. K. Her estimated net worth is just shy of $1 billion. Perhaps the most inspiring fact about J. K. Rowling is that she was rejected 12 different times by 12 different publishing houses before she finally found acceptance with a company called Bloomsbury. Clearly, she is a testament to the adage that if at first, you don't succeed, try, try again (thanks Thomas H. Palmer!)

Author Profile

neverwinterknights

A gigantic GoT fan (and if you don't know that's Game of Thrones, we REALLY can't be friends), Lannister (hint hint, not my real name, but online you can be anything right!?) loves to write quizzes on everything from George R Martin to Game of Thrones. Ok, fine, he can also write quizzes on other shows and about other topics. Grudgingly.

AwardJoy

Awardjoy is a great way to learn a little, while having a lot of fun. There are other quiz sites out there, but between our exceptional quiz writers, our simple and intuitive interface, and our limited use of adverts, Awardjoy is the enjoyable experience we really wanted to create.

While we did start with trivia quizzes, Awardjoy has since expanded to include personality activities, from fun quizzes to more serious assessments. The jury is out yet - but let us let us know what you think.

One thing we are certain of: this is just the beginning. As we continue to grow, refine, and improve, we would really like to let you know when we make important steps forward. Feel free to sign up for our newsletter, or check back often. One thing we can guarantee: there will be something new, and something we care about, every, single, day.
