How I did it: I was enlisted to be a part of a series of teen memoirs, an opportunity i was very thankful for, so the book is a reflection on my life so far and the circumstances i've overcome. it feels very good to have a positive outcome of some of the bad things that have happened in my life that will hopefully be of help to others in similar situations. Can't believe i'm getting published! Read how I did it…
So far i’ve been rejected by The Sun. Submitted to Narrative. Will re-submit to The Sun.
but i’m powering through. Slowly.
Each book/play entails two essays (except number seven); there is additional work for Atlas Shrugged.
