I left university with a good degree in English Literature，but nosense of what I wanted to do. Over the next six years，I was trying to earn an income. Itried journalism，but I didn't think I was any good，then finance，which I hated. Finally，Igot a job as a rights assistant at a famous publisher. When I had enough savings to take a year off work，I decided to try to satisfy a deep-down wish to write a novel. Attending a Novel Writing MA course gave me the structure（构思）of writing my first 55，000 words. It takes confidence to make a new start一theres a dark period in-between whereyoure neither one thing nor the other. Youre out for dinner and people ask what you do，and youre too ashamed to say，“Well，Im writing a novel，but Im not quite sure if Imgoing to get there.”My confidence dived. Believing my novel could not be published，I putit aside. Then I met an agent who said I should send my novel out to agents. So，I did and，tomy surprise，got some wonderful feedback. I felt a little hope that I might actually becomea published writer and，after signing with an agent，I finished the second half of the novel. The next problem was finding a publisher. After two-and-a-half years of no income，just waiting and wondering，a publisher offered me a book deal-that publisher turned outto be the one I once worked for.
