When I was fifteen,I announced to my English class that I was going to write my own books.Half the students laughed,the rest nearly fell out of their chairs,\geniuses(天才) can become writers,\semester.\
That night I wrote a short sad poem about broken dreams and mailed it to the Capri's Weekly newspaper. To my surprise,they published it and sent me two dollars. I showed it to my teacher and fellow students.They laughed again.“Just plain dumb luck(撞大运),”the teacher said.But I tasted success.I'd sold the first thing I'd ever written.That was more than any of them had done and if it was just dumb luck,that was fine with me.
During the next two years I sold dozens of poems,letters,jokes and recipes.By the time I graduated from high school,with a C average,I had scrapbooks filled with my published work.I never mentioned my writing to my teachers,friends or my family again.They were dream killers .If people must choose between their friends and their dreams,they must choose dreams.
I had four children at the time,and the oldest was only four.When the children slept,I typed on my ancienttypewriter.I wrote what I felt.A month later Crying Wind,the title of my book,became a best seller,was translated into fifteen languages and Braille(盲文) and sold worldwide.I appeared on TV talk shows. My first book also became required reading in native American schools in Canada.
People ask what college I attended,what degrees I had. The answer is：\not a genius.I'm not gifted . I don't write right but I've beaten the impossibilities.Writingis easy.It's fun and anyone can do it.Of course,a little dumb luck doesn't hurt.
