Some years ago when l was in my first year in college, I heard Salome Bey sing for the first time．The moment was exciting, Salome's 36 filled the room and brought the．theater to life．I was so 37 that I decided to write an article about her．
I 38 Salome Bey, telling her I was from Essence magazine, and that I wanted．to meet her to talk about her career． She 39 and told me to come to her studio next Tuesday．When I hung up, I was scared out of my mind．I 40 I was lying．I was not a writer at all and hadn't even written a grocery list．
I interviewed Salome Bey the next Tuesday． I sat there 41 , taking notes and asking questions that all began with, "Can you tell me…" I soon realized that 42 Salome Bey was one thing, but writing a story for a national magazine was just impossible．The 43 Was almost unbearable． I struggled for days 44 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 45 ．How stupid of me! I thought．How could I 46 in a world of professional writers? Knowing I couldn't 47 the rejection letter, I threw the unopened envelope into a drawer．
Five years later, I was moving to California．While 48 my apartment, I came across the unopened envelope． This time I opened it and read the editor's letter in 49 ;
Ms Profit,
Your story on Salome Bey is fantastic． Yet we need some 50 materials．Please add those and return the article immediately; We would like to 51 your story soon.
Shocked, it took． me a long time to 52 ．Fear of rejection cost me dearly． I lost at least five hundred dollars and having my article appear in a major magazine． More importantly, I lost years of 53 writing．Today, I have become a full－time writer, Looking, back on this 54 ,I learned a very important lesson: You can't 55 to doubt yourself．
