We don't know that. After all HP was rejected so many times that it was almost shelved. I also have noticed that perception of female writers changed. Before, if you were to rec a female scifi writer on a scifi discussion board you had to add "but it's not romance". Idk. Harry is a boy which might be enough to attract boys or, most likelly, boys's parents.

Yes, but also: JKR was a good writer and her work had more commercial appeal than any of the authors I mentioned. And she got a titanic marketing push.

So, it's hard to say which of those things made the difference for her popularity being so much greater than any of the other writers we're mentioning here.

Oh boy, you've done it now. Be prepared to be laughed at for calling JKR a good writer.

Nah, I am too lazy even to laugh at that. I've read tldr of the main secret give me some slack.
