I am not sure if my sentences sound natural. Would you please correct my mistakes?

Anna got an invitation to visit her favourite writer.
She showed the letter to her mother and said, "Can you imagine the happiness of being able to talk to him and show him my own stories and poems?"
"Don't be too excited," her mother said. "He must be an awfully busy man. He'll not have time to read through all your texts."
