Do you like reading books What kind of books do you like

Do you know who write it
J.K.Rowling
Brief introduction to J.K.Rowling
Born: July 31, 1965, Yate, near Bristol, England
Occupation: an British author who is one of the world's most successful and wealthiest authors known for her popular children's books Harry Potter series.
Notable work:
Harry Potter
Do you think J.K. has an easy time with her book, Harry Potter
According to J. K. Rowling’s words, she has received 20 rejections before the book, Harry Potter, is published.
So, without J. K. Rowling’s perseverance, there is no the book, which is distinguished all over the world.
Just like J. K. Rowling, Anne Bront and J.D. Salinger also faced many difficulties, too.
Anne Bront
J.D. Salinger
Anne Bront
Anne wanted to be a writer at that time when women are not encouraged to be. But she didn’t stop trying. Then, she and her sisters wrote a book of poems under male names and published.
J.D. Salinger
J.D. Salinger failed to publish his novel and received the reply, ”We feel that we don’t know the central character well enough” for The Catcher in the Rye. And then it continued to be rejected by several publishers.

Eventual outcome:
Bronte sisters
Wuthering heights , Jane Eyre and Agnes Grey
Their works are rejected until they wrote under male names
They are regarded as classics of world literature.
So what are the similarities among them
They faced many rejections before they are famous. And they never give up and continue to write and contact with publishers.
So what can you learn from them
Never quit in the face of difficulties
Look at the title of the passage, guess what will happen
There will be some bad things according to the word “regret”, like rejection.
The whole sentence could be “We regret to inform you that it is not possible for us to accept your book.
“We regret to inform you...” These are the words that every writer dreads receiving, but words every writer knows well. The response from a publisher comes back and the writer eagerly opens and reads it, their hearts sinking when they reach that final sentence.
“We regret to inform you...”
regret 遗憾,后悔
regret doing sth 后悔做了sth regret to do 后悔做(还没做)
to one’s regret 令人后悔的是
inform sb of/about sth 通知sb sth
information 消息
Eg. He regretted taking part in this event.
=To his regret, he took part in this event.
These are the words that every writer dreads receiving, but words every writer knows well.
dread 畏惧,担心(v/n); 可怕的,生气的
dread doing/to do
that 后引导一个定语从句, “every writer knows well”也做定语,省略关系代词“that”
You may have spent years giving up your weekends and free time to write your life’s work, yet still this is often not enough. Everyone knows that success rarely happens overnight, but perhaps not many know that a lot of highly successful writers have previously faced rejection.

Take for example J.K. Rowling. When she received her first rejection letter, she decided that it meant she now had something in common with her favourite writers, and stuck it on her kitchen wall. Rowling had spent years surviving on little money, spending all her time writing.

When she finally finished her first book, she received comments from publishers along the lines of “too difficult for children” , “too long”, “Children would not be interested in it”.

Nevertheless, she persevered. “I wasn’t going to give up until every single publisher turned me down, but I often feared that would happen,” she later posted. After a total of twelve rejections, one publisher eventually agreed to print 500 copies of her first book, and as we know, Harry Potter became a global success, with over 400 million books sold and translated into more than seventy different languages.

All too often writers of great works have had to face criticism along with rejection. J.D. Salinger started writing short stories in high school, but later struggled to get his works published. “We feel that we don’t know the central character well enough” was the criticism he received on his manuscript for The Catcher in the Rye.

Criticism -ism 后缀

Struggle for/ to do

He struggles to stand up.
Despite rejections from several publishers, J.D. Salinger refused to give up. Even when serving in the US Army during the Second World War, he carried six chapters of The Catcher in the Rye with him and worked on the novel throughout his war service. When it was eventually published, the book became an immediate best-seller and went on to sell millions and millions of copies.
Perhaps the overall prize for perseverance should go to three sisters from Victorian England who dreamt of seeing their words in print. This, however, was a time when women were not encouraged to become writers. As the then Poet Laureate, Robert Southey, wrote to one of them: “Literature cannot be the business of a woman’s life, and it ought not to be.”
Nevertheless, the sisters didn’t stop trying. Their response was to write a book of poems under male names. Even when the book sold only two copies, the sisters still didn’t give up. They started writing novels, and today Charlotte Bronte’s Jane Eyre, Emily Bronte’s Wuthering Heights and Anne Bronte’s Agnes Grey are regarded as classics of world literature
In fact, it is within the pages of Jane Eyre that we can find these words: “I honour endurance, perseverance, industry, talent; because these are the means by which men achieve great ends...”
In fact = in reality = as a matter of fact = in effect
It is +强调部分+ that/who +其他部分
So, it seems that talent alone isn’t enough to guarantee success. While a lot of hard work and a touch of luck play a part, perseverance is the key. Keep trying and eventually you will read the words “We are delighted to inform you...”
