Writing Sample:

Zhou Mi comes off the stage with his heart racing and his eyes a little too wide, smile fixed in place. It's getting easier than it used to be--he hasn't spotted one of those signs in a week and there are none of the chilling silences anymore when he steps forward. He still can't help the split-second reflex he's developed, the need to scan the crowd and look for it, but he's really, truly grateful for the voices that do call his name in a way that he couldn't have been, a year ago.

He can say the experience has taught him that appreciation, if nothing else. It was too easy, when he was the golden child, the driven perfectionist with a natural flair for success, to take it for granted. Out-perform the competition, and the audience will fall at your feet. But when there's no competition he can face down, no task he can succeed at, just formless hostility... what then? That's what he's learning, a step at a time.
