It made me

So proud.

How I did it: I started when I was in 7th grade. Why? I don't know. Honestly, I drew a picture and thought: This could be a book! And I started writing in journals. All my time went into writing this book. I mean any possible chance, minute, second, whatever. I admit, I skipped homework to write these. I was that passionate.
Surprisingly this passion and commitment didn't fade. I found friends that could keep up with my wild ideas. I love them very much.
The one year turned into two and then into three. I started typing on my faithful laptop. I struggled with second thoughts and doubts. Oh, god, these were awful. But I realized that I loved my first ideas and I stuck with them.
And now I am actually done. And I'm only 15 and a half. This pride will stay with me for life.
Now I simply need to get an agent, and I'm hopefully on my way. Read how I did it… 9 months ago
