J. K. Rowling reaches out to one of her Twitter followers in trouble.

Despite being one of the most famous authors in the world, J.K. Rowling is known for spending time responding to her Twitter followers questions and comments.

Her latest move though was to take the time to reach out to a fan expressing her deep concern about ‘feeling sad all the time’ and asking the incredible Harry Potter scribe for help.

On Monday night Australian time, the young woman wrote “could you please tech me how to scare the dementors that have been living under my bed? I’m tired of being sad all the time.

Then just eight minutes later, the literary legend and mother of three responded with, “they’re bothering a unique, valuable human being who deserves happiness, Ask for help. Don’t fight alone. Big hug.”

 

Her response was retweeted thousands of times and soon had her other loyal followers offering their own messages of support to the young woman.

And some were rather creative with their messages of support:

Rowling was praised by followers for her touching response and for understanding anxiety and depression.

And they got this lovely response back from the young woman who asked J.K Rowling for her advice.

What a rock star.
