Thank you so much for this article, it really helped. I’m thirteen, and I’ve been writing for the last few years and I absolutaly love it. But a lot of the time I have trouble seeing a story through to the end, or doing anything with it. =P

Hi, i’m Elin
I’ve been writing since i was about five or six and absolutely love it. I’ve always dreamt of becoming a successful writer and this website has helped boost my confidence. Unfortunately none of my friends really enjoy writing much and i’m always too shy to show my stories to any-one, except my dad, who sometimes reads them as he used to write when he was younger. He says they’re good but your parents can hardly say they don’t like your stories so it’d be great to have an outside opinion. I would love to be able to send my stories to some-one and receive some advice on how to improve, and enter as many competitions as possible. It would also be great to contact other people who enjoy writing and maybe exchange work. I’m writing a novel at the moment which is 135 pages so far and have written a lot of other novels, (but unfortunately have not managed to end all of them yet!)
I attend a writing squad at the moment which has been a great help to my writing. But every-one there all ready has their friends there and none of my friends were picked to become a member and i feel kinnda shy reading out my work. I’d love to make proper friends with some-one who enjoys writing just like me, so we can both support each other.
I know the writing industry is a hard one and not many people get their novels published. But i am absolutely determined to get my writing published because it means everything to me.

I’m fifteen now, but I’ve been telling stories ever since I could write sentences.

I’ll blame Dr. Seuss for that. ^.^

Right now I’m writing several thousand different universes. My big thing is actually seeing a story through to the end, because a new idea always comes up eventually and tears me away. Short attention span, curse thee!

I hope one day to write a young adult novel, just to say I actually finished something.

Great article by the way, I could always do with encouragement.
