Some years ago when I was in my first year in college, I heard Salome Bey sing for the first time. The moment was exciting. Salome’s ____ filled the room and brought the theater to life. I was so ____ that I decided to write an article about her.

I ____ Salome Bey, telling her I was from Essence magazine, and that I wanted to meet her to talk about her career. She ____ and told me to come to her studio next Tuesday. When I hung up, I was scared out of my mind. I ____ 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 ____, taking notes and asking questions that all began with, “Can you tell me…” I soon realized that ____ Salome Bey was one thing, but writing a story for a national magazine was just impossible. The ____ was almost unbearable. I struggled for days ____ 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 ____. How stupid of me! I thought. How could I ____ in a world of professional writers? Knowing I couldn’t ____ the rejection letter, I threw the unopened envelope into a drawer.

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

Dear Ms Profit,

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

Shocked, it took me a long time to ____. 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 ____ writing. Today, I have become a full-time writer. Looking back on this ____, I learned a very important lesson: You can’t ____ to doubt yourself.
