A HIDDEN DIAMOND IN A PILE OF COAL
You may not know the background of a certain laundry worker who only earned a mere sixty dollars a week at his job but had the burning desire to be a writer.
He had to have his wife to worked part time at nights, and he will spent nights after his work and burn all weekends typing manuscripts to send to publishers and agents.
Every one rejected his work without even reading his manuscripts! But finally, a warm, more personal rejection letter came in the mail to the laundry worker,
stating that although his work was not good enough at this point to warrant publishing, so he promise himself as a writer and he should keep trying.
With that little glimpse of hope! He work diligently everyday so that he could go home early and write his story, over the next 1 and a half years,
he wrote two manuscripts and send to the same friendly-yet-rejecting publisher. and as before, he got replied with the same reply that his work was not up to standard
They got so poor now that the had to cut off their telephone to pay for medicine for their baby.Feeling totally discouraged, he threw his latest manuscript into the garbage.
BUT His wife, totally committed to his life goals and believing in his talent, took THE MANUSCRIPTS BACK OUT of the RUBBISH CHUTE and sent it back to Doubleday,
the publisher who had sent the friendly rejections.
The book, titled Carrie, sold over 5 million copies in the end and the movie became one of the top-grossing films in 1976.
The laundry worker, of course, was Stephen King.
