I interviewed Salome Bey the next Tuesday. I sat there   26  , taking notes and asking questions that all began with, “Can you tell me…” I soon realized that   27   Salome Bey was one thing, but writing a story for a national magazine was just impossible. The   28   was almost unbearable. I struggled for days   29   draft after draft. Finally I put my manuscript (手稿) into a large envelope and dropped it into a mailbox.

It didn’t take long. My manuscript   30  . How stupid of me! I thought. How could I   31   in a world of professional writers? Knowing I couldn’t   32   the rejection letter, I threw the unopened envelope into a drawer.

Five years later, I was moving to California. While   33   my apartment, I came across the unopened envelope. This time I opened it and read the editor’s letter in   34   :

Ms Profit,

Your story on Salome Bey is fantastic. Yet we need some   35   materials. Please add those and return the article immediately. We would like to   36   your story soon.

Shocked, it took me a long time to   37  . Fear of rejection cost me ly. I lost at least five hundred dollars and having my article appear in a major magazine. More importantly, I lost years of   38   writing. Today, I have become a full – time writer. Looking back on this   39  , I learned a very important lesson: You can’t   40   to doubt yourself.
