Question: How can I ever be an author!?
I love writing but I have so many things to do in my life I hardly ever have time and as most teens I go through "phases" well it's more like cycles!. "I love writing!" then "I like writing but I'd rather draw fashion designs", then it's " I want to write poetry" the something bout gymnastic, dancing, singing, song writing,this that and the other thing and then back to writing! I can never stay with one thing I always want to everything!. And I don't want to read certain book or practice writing because again I'm trying to do a million other things!. And when I do write something all I can think is "This dosen't even compare to some of the books I've read"!. I kind of want to get something published young (I'm still 13) It's kind of a family tradition lol!. But I can't do it becuase right now I'm on poetry and music and I can't think about my writing, and then I see all these people who are so ambishious about what they are doing that it makes me feel bad because I'm not even trying and IWww@QuestionHome@Com

You dnt neccesairy have to work ot to be an author!. Write whatever you want, if you're really men to be an author, it'll come naturlly!.
So!.!.!.take a deep breath!.
Relax!.
And maybe, if u really want to give writing a novel a shot, just start doing it!. Don't give up because u think you're not good enough!.
We always judge ourselves harder, so just because u think something u write is not good, doesn't mean it actually isn't!.

Don't give up and enjoy all the things your interested in!. When its time in your life, you'll be able (and want) to do more with your writing!.
I didn't start writing until I was 39!. Now I'm working on getting published and have a couple of manuscripts at publishing companies!. Sometimes I stop writing and I sculpt!.
So keep writing when you are in the mood!. When your not, don't force it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
