Question

There are lots of popular writers in China, for example Han Han, FengJical, Tie Ning, Guo Jingming and so on. In my mind, Mo Yan is one of the most famous writers in China, because he is not only from Weifang but also good at writing.

Mo Yan was born in Gao Mi, Wei Fang. Now he is a 57-year-old writer. His real name is Guan Moye. Mo Yan is his pen name. It means “no speaking”. He began writing at the age of 26 and in 2011 his novel The Frog won the Mao Dun Prize in Literature. Since then, he has won lots of prizes.

In 2012, Mo Yan won the Nobel Prize in Literature. I’m proud of him, because I like writing. So I joined a writing workshop to improve my level of writing and I made lots of friends there.
