My Inpiration

There are many people in our lives that somehow make a very powerful impression on us. Last semester, my reading writitng class required to read a novel which was The Street Lawyer. This book completely changed me because I did not really like reading before. Now, I think I probably have 25 to 30 novel at home. John Grisham is my favorite author because he writes mystery. John Grisham wrote 22 novels like A time to kill, The firm, the street lawyer, the chamber, the innocent man and the appeal, etc. He mostly writes fiction, but he had write one non-fiction story which was The Innocent Man. John Grisham is the second oldest of five siblings. He was born in Arkansas in the United States. His family moved to Mississippi in 1967. His father was a construction worker and a cotton farmer, and his mother was a homemaker. John was encouraged by his mother. He was a passionate reader, and he was influenced by John Steinbeck who was once a great writer. John received a Bachelor of Science in Accounting in 1977 from Mississippi State University. After that, John Grisham got into the law school, and he received Jusis Doctor from the Mississipi of Law in 1981. For the duration of law school, John switched tax law to criminal and civil litigation. Before his graduation he started focsing on criminal and civil cases. He spent most of his time in court proceding. In 1983, he elected as a Democrat to the House of Representative where he served seven years. In 1984, the attorney became writer from the 12 year old girl rape case.

He started thinking about her father's emotion, and he sta

-rted to put his thoughts on the paper. It took him three years to write his first novel "A Time to Kill." This book rejected by many publishers, but ultimately Wynwood press bought the manuscript and printed 5000 copies of this book. After that, we all know. The day after he completed A Time to Kill, he started to write The Firm. John Grisham is my inspiration, that if you really want to do something, you just got a work hard on it to achieve your goals.
