I'm an author, I am a published author and I'm 15 years old. I've been writing since I could write, since I knew how to write, I started out writing songs with a dream to be a rock star. Then I moved on to short stories, and within the same year that I started writing short stories, I began writing full fledged novels. After I wrote my first novel, I couldn't get enough of this writing, so I started writing more. Soon I started writing poetry, and then I found out that anyone can publish a book, you don't have to be the president's daugher, you don't have to be rich, you can do it. So, I researched, I edited and researched, and I found out how to publish a book. And I did it.
I'm sorry, I'm probably making this sound easy, it wasn't, it was the farthest thing from easy, it was the hardest thing I had ever done in my life. I published my book last March. I did the craziest thing, I entered a contest, NaNoWriMo, where you try to write a novel in one month, I did. That was the second novel that I had ever written. Three months later, I published my book, on my parent's anniversary, March 28th. The entire thing took me 4 months. But, then again, that was only because it took me four previous years of research. After I got published, I'm realizing, this is just the beginning.
