What’s this about? ” “I’ve sold your novels 5 one and a half million dollars.” I sat down in 6 . I had written fourteen novels in twenty years, but each one had been 7 by the publishers. I suppose many people would have been 8 , but not me. Each time, I just 9 writing another one. My husband advised me to find something else to do, but I refused to 10 up. Seeing this book 11 was the best thing that has ever happened to me. It’s a mystery story (like all the others) and it was on the best-seller 12 two weeks after publication! I got my first lesson in story 13 from my grandmother. She used to read my stories. She was the one who gave me a 14 of words. She sparked (激發) my 15 and she has been a 16 influence on me. I always had stories running through my 17 and as soon as I could write, I 18 them down on paper. I married young and I have three children, but I never stopped writing. 19 novels between doing the diapers(嬰兒的尿布) and dishes. I’m writing another novel now. Yes, my 20 has changed my life.
