CA British girl, Taryn Everdeen, has just finished writing a novel(小说)with her favorite writer, Carolyn
Meyer, even though she is 66 years younger than her.
Taryn was only 15 years old, when she first wrote a fan letter to a 81-year-old Carolyn Meyer, to give thanks
for her historical novels.
“Carolyn was one of my favorite writers. I grew up reading her books. When I was nine or ten, I would listen
to her stories every night…That made me fall in love with history,” says Taryn.
Taryn, who is from Norwich, England, was then surprised when Carolyn wrote back and suggested writing a
novel together.
Carolyn is an American writer who writes novels for children and young people. She has published(出版)
over 60 children books, but she has never wanted to work with another writer until she got Taryn's letter.
Three years ago, after Taryn wrote to her, Carolyn invited the young girl to stay with her in the US, so they
could write a novel together. They decided(决定)to write a time-traveling story. They sent ideas to each other by
email. Carolyn also visited Taryn last year, and Taryn flew to the US over the summer, after she finished her school
exams.
They now have a first draft(初稿)of "Mirror of Time". They decide to give it to some publishers and hope
they will be interested in it.
"This is my first try at writing a novel. We have been working on it for three years. It's amazing, " says Taryn.
And I have never met anyone like her. "She seems much younger than her age. I think she is a really powerful role
model(有影响力的榜样). She's my teacher, and my work partner, but I see her as a friend more than anything
else."
Taryn, now 18 years old, returns from the USA this week. She wants to have a gap year(间隔年)before
starting university next year.
“We worked hard, but we did other things together, too. While I was there, we went to a few theatre shows,
and we went on a journey to Taos, staying in a hotel overnight there."
"She's very open, and I can talk to her about pretty much all the things I talk to my other friends about,” shesays. "She has taught me how to be a better writer."
35. Taryn first wrote a fan letter to Carolyn to _______________·

and somehow that became very serious." says her mother, Rachel Johnson. Zoe missed a lot of school work but was
able to continue with her studies with the help of an online teacher. But "over the years her real-world friendships
disappeared(消失)because she's not well enough to see anybody, " says Ms Johnson.For the last three months, though, she has been taking classes with her former classmates using a
“telepresence" robot called AVI. The small, cute-looking robot, made by Oslo-based start-up No Isolation, sits in
the classroom and sends live streams video and audio(直播视频和音频)back to Zoe's ipad, phone or computer
at home. She can speak through the robot and take part in lessons, and also control(控制)where AVI is looking.
When she wants to ask a question, the robot's head starts blinking on and off to tell the teacher. And when she's
