When she was in her third year of high school,she wrote a novel called She put the novel on a website. People downloaded (下载) it and read it on their mobile phones. The novel became so popular that a publisher (出版商) made it into a book.If You sold almost half a million copies in bookstores.

   In Japan,in 2000,an Internet company (公司) made a website for people to share the novels they wrote on their mobile phones. Soon,millions of people in Japan downloaded other people's mobile phone novels from the website onto their own mobile phones. In this way,20 million people read a mobile phone novel called Love Sky. It was so popular that it became a printed book and then a movie. By 2007,half of the top ten best-selling books in Japan were mobile phone novels first.
