Rowling's mother died in December of that year, and Rowling channeled much of her grief into the novel. She conceived of the first Harry Potter book in 1990 and began to write immediately. She graduated from the University of Exeter in 1986 and then worked as a researcher and a secretary in London. She was the first of two children and has said that she was a very unhappy teen: her mother suffered from multiple sclerosis and her relationship with her father was strained. Rowling's father was an aircraft mechanic and her mother was a science technician.
