A high school English, struggling to support his family, was also working at an industrial laundry, just to make ends meet. With three kids and growing frustration, he was writing his first novel, however, feeling disheartened, he threw it into the trash, convinced it wasn’t worth finishing. Luckily, his wife found the pages in the trash, and saw potential. She encouraged her husband Stephen King to finish the novel. Her belief in him gave him the motivation to finish writing Carrie! After several rejections, Doubleday gave King a chance. The hardcover sales were modest, but the paperback rights sold for $400,000, a life-changing sum that set King on the path to be one of the most prolific writers in the world.
