Angela has been crazy about writing since she was young.She got her first lesson in story-telling from her grandfather,who gave her words of love.He set off her imagination and influenced her much.Angela always had stories running through her head and as soon as she Could write,she put them down on paper.
Angela clearly remembered the call that changed her life.It was Tuesday,February 18th,when the phone rang in the kitchen if her Los Angeles home.On the line Was Marty Banderas,a literary agent (代理) to whom she had sent a draft of her novel three weeks earlier.She asked Angela some personal information,like age and health condition(状况).Angela felt strange and asked what that was about.Banderas only replied,"I've just sold your novel for one and a half million dollars!" .,
She sat down in shock.She had written over fourteen novels in twenty years,but each one had been refused by publishers(出版商).Many people would have been discouraged (气馁的),but not her.Each time,she just got down to writing another one.Her husband advised her to find something else to do,but she never gave up.Seeing this book published was the most exciting thing that has ever happened to her.
Now she is a mother of three children,but she has never stopped writting ,turning out novels between kids and dishes.She is writing another novel now,and she expects another success.Yes,her belief has brought her success ,and it has changed her life in return .
