Wow!

You seem to be quite the acclaimed author :) What would your advice be for young, aspiring writers? I am eighteen years old. I want to get involved in writing but I am not quite sure how to begin.

Do you have any pointers?

Tanya,

Thank you for your post. I wish I had pursued my writing when I was your age. My best advice is to take some classes to develop your technical skills, connect with a writing group in your area--a group that will critique your writing and give encouragement. Then write. One book I'd recommend is Escaping Into the Open: The Art of Writing True by Elizabeth Berg. That would be a good start. Best of luck with your writing.
