Authors including Fifty Shades of Grey's E L James and Doctor Who scribe Jenny Colgan sent her messages of love and congratulations on her recovery, alongside hundreds of fans.
Last week, Rowling launched Harry Potter at Home, a service full of Wizarding World-themed arts and crafts, quizzes and other things for people to do while they are stuck at home in the current climate. It even has the first book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, available to listen to for free in multiple languages.
Filming for the third Fantastic Beasts movie was underway, but has been postponed because of the worldwide situation.
