     Wang Yi, who can't walk or even communicate normally, has written eight books with one movable finger. Wang was born with cerebral palsy (脑瘫) in Jiangsu Province in 1989. Restricted to a wheelchair as she began to grow up, she even has difficulty eating and bathing.

    However, Wang and her parents have stayed positive throughout. Since childhood, Wang's parents have been telling her to regard herself as a normal person even if she is physically disabled.

    She practiced performing daily activities repeatedly. With her parents' help, she learned to live with her physical disability and aimed to be an outstanding writer. Before the age of 17, Wang completed nine years of compulsory education and acquired much literary knowledge. With the encouragement of her teacher, she became more determined to pursue her dream of writing.

    Literature has become a medium for her to communicate with the world. Sitting in a wheelchair, Wang pursues her dream in her own way. Though she only has one movable finger on her right hand, she has managed to write eight books with a total of more than a million words. "For me, writing is not a tool to make a living, but my necessary life mode. Only when I am involved in writing can I feel complete," she stressed.

    Wang hopes that every disabled person can live without discrimination. "What I value most is the sense of value and dignity from the efforts of the disabled themselves, as well as from social recognition, acceptance and equal treatment." She also hopes that readers can experience the strength of life, the warmth of family and the beauty of the times when they are reading her works.

    Jidi Majia, Vice Chairman of the China Writers Association commented, "Although Wang Yi has a disability, the spirit shown in her works is positive. Besides, Wang's lyrics show a unique understanding about the value of life. "
