yes!!! i had a book published when i was 14 at booksurge!.com!. they are not a big company but once you have more than one book under your belt, you will get bigger!. good luck!. and great job in starting early!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Absolutely! If you have the talent and skill to pull off writing a book a publisher would accept, it doesn't matter what your age is!. You can be seven or a hundred and seven, all the publishers care about is a marketable manuscript!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

They have before!. The man who wrote the Eragon series (Christopher Paolini, I believe) was published as a teenager, as was Flavia Bujor (who was the author of The Prophecy of the Stones--such a good book!)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

No!. Good books don't get published, only the best!. No offense, I am 14, but I believe the quality a thirteen year old writes at is not nearly up to par with other authors!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

totally!. I'm thirteen and I've gotten two published, lookuing for a third!.!.!. by the way, do you know any new publishers!? my last one's are old to me now!.!. lol!. good luckWww@QuestionHome@Com

If it's good enough then yeah, why not!.!. it's been done before!.!. but it's rare!. Good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com
