While I was reading I realized that Stephen king stories kept being denied, but he continued to keep trying and not give up. Each time he got denied, it really actually helped him, because it gave him a better understanding of his writing skills. Such as when he was the editor of the school newspaper called The Drum, he got tired of putting captions to photos, so he decided that he would make his own newspaper that was only four pages called The Village Vomit. The Village Vomit wasn’t exactly a honest news filled newspaper, it was more of a practical joke. In one article he wrote about a teacher’s jersey cow winning a farting contest at the local fair. All of his friends and high school classmates thought his newspaper was hilarious until Ms. Margitan walked up behind some fellow students and saw the article for herself. Stephen was then sent to the principles office for his second time for upsetting his teacher about what he had written. Even though he got in trouble, it never stopped him from doing the one thing he loved, and that was writing.
