Wow, I just so happen to have that exact same question.
Okay. Suppose YOU were fifteen. Suppose you wrote unbelievably well. I mean, better than some of that crap that gets published, to say the least. Is it even humanly possible for me (I mean, you) to get published? Huh? Is it? Huh? Okay, I'll stop now.

Well, Flavia Bujor got published at 14 and is a best selling author at 15. So yes, yes it is possible.

There's another thread about this? Hm, I really need to find some real time to spend on these forums again. Unfortunately, I do not think that will be happening anytime soon.

Most kids my age, with a few (okay, maybe a lot) of exceptions, dont write well. And some books I read and I think....this isnt good writing, and I could of done better---and if I of all people could of written it better then it isnt very good.

That should be "I could HAVE done better" and "if I of all people could HAVE done better . . . ".
