Leaving a job, "Amnesty International" in London, Rowling and her young man decided to move to Manchester. In 1990, when she was traveling in a train from Manchester to London, who was detained for four hours, in her mind, "came fully formed" the idea of a novel about a boy attending a school of wizardry. She said in an interview with The Boston Globe: «I really do not know where this idea came. It started with Harry, then came flooding into my head all these characters and situations. “ Rowling as described on its website the emergence of the concept of Harry Potter : • I came back to London in a crowded train, and the idea of Harry Potter just occurred to me. I wrote almost continuously since the age of six, but never before have so worried no idea. To my great disappointment, I did not have a pen, and I was too shy to ask someone to lend ... I have not been working with a pen, but I think that, probably, it was good. I just sat and thought four o'clock (delayed train), while all the details bubbled up in my brain, and this scrawny, black-haired boy with glasses, who did not know he was a wizard, became for me more and more real. Maybe if I slowed thoughts to fix on paper, then put down to some of them (although sometimes I wonder how much of what I imagined when I forgot to time turned to the handle). I began to write 'Philosopher's Stone' that very evening, although those first few pages have nothing to do with the finished book. • When she got home, I immediately began to write. In December of the same year, after a decade of multiple sclerosis Rowling's mother died. Joan recalled: "I was writing Harry Potter, when my mother died. I never told her about Harry Potter. "According to Rowling, the death of a great influence on her novel and she described in more detail the loss of Harry's parents in the first book, because I knew that feeling.
