Did you know that for every 20,000 novels written, only one gets published? So the【C1】_____(likely)that I’ll ever fulfill my ambition of becoming a professional mystery writer doesn’t seem very high. But the prospect of turning my lifelong passion into my livelihood and achieving fame and【C2】for______ at the same time is just too exciting for me to be put off by dull statistics.
So what does it【C3】t______to become a writer? Reading is important—all writers need to research their genre thoroughly to familiarize themselves【C4】______its codes and conventions. My bookshelves at home are stacked with the novels of all the great mystery writers, which I’ve read and in many cases, re-read, despite【C5】______(know)all the time " who’d done it".
Of course, being a writer requires imagination. You have to develop your own personal style rather than simply copy the work of "the greats". I’ve turned out【C6】d______of short crime stories for my university student magazine—some have been published, some not, but I’ve always aimed to produce original and imaginative material.
Last but not【C7】______, successful writers possess enormous self-discipline. I’ve often sacrificed my social life in order to devote the necessary time and effort to producing a good quality story. And more than once that has meant【C8】______the midnight oil.
We’ve got a novel inside us. Getting it out in anywhere near publishable form is no【C9】______task, but with imagination and determination, and the help of an expert on " masterclass" , who could possibly fail to【C10】re______their ambition?
