Summary: Finally A Book Advising Teens On How To Get Published
Review: Ever wanted to get published? Well this is definitly the book for you. I have been writing stories for a while now and I have never gotten anything out of it besides my parents and friend praising me for my work. I read books for adults on how to get published I even got to the point where I was ready to send one of my books/stories to a publisher with barely any insight on what I was doing. Then my life, writing wise, changed.

I went to a local book shop with my mom for some apparent reason and she went to get her book and I went to get mine; however, I had no I idea of what I wanted to get so I searched for stupid things and then I typed out these exact words "how to get published" and you probably already know what I got. The Young Writer's Guide to Getting Published. I was amazed, a book for teens on getting published? So I went and found the book and my life has never been the same since. I got info on every thing, the cover letter, publishing (looking professional), and well just everything you needed to know. And the best part was in the back of the book there was a list with descrptions of publishers that accept young writers works. So stop reading this review and GET THIS BOOK!!!!!!
