J.K. Rowling
This writer has changed the face of magic and just that fact could be enough to make her a very inspirational woman, but she did it in such a cute way that we have to mention it. J.K. Rowling started writing Harry Potter on napkins while she was a single mother traveling by train. She then wrote her novel on an old typewriter and her manuscript was refused 12 times before Harry Potter was given a chance to become the wizard that we know. That is what we call perseverance.
