Do you have any advice for teenagers who wants to write a book?



If so please answer!!!!!Does anyone know anyone know any good Publishing Companies?
First and best advice - avoid self publishing companies like the plague.



Second advice - spend the 30 dollars and buy yourself a copy of Writers Market and read it front to back and start learning to advocate for yourself by learning the world of publishing.



Third advice - Go to my profile.聽You will find many great Q and A regarding writing and publishing that I have starred for the help of novice writers. Go through them. Find a bunch you think will help you. Then print them out and study them. There is a lot of good information written by a lot of professional writers here to help you.

It can take a long time to write a book. I suggest you get it close to finished before looking for a publisher.



Publishing is a business. They don't care how old you are. The only thing that matters is the quality of your book.



If you don't have a lot of experience writing, maybe you could start small and practice with some short stories and essays.



I'm not trying to discourage you---I really hope you end up becoming a very successful writer---but it takes time just to learn how to do it. If you are meant to be a writer, you will enjoy every moment of writing, even if it's just practice.



Best wishes,

James
