JK Rowling: The fringe benefits of failure | Video on TED.com

JK Rowling: The fringe benefits of failure | Video on TED.com

This isn't new, by any means. You probably caught a glimpse of a soundbite of it when she gave the speech in June 2008.
This video was posted on Ted.com a year ago, but I thought it was appropriate to post it now. It's January, after all. The skies are slate grey, Christmas is a distant memory, the summer is miles away, and we all need some inspiration.
Rowling's sense of humour comes across here - but so too does her confidence and her sense of humanity.
