It is probably easier to find the energy and time to write a book now while your parents are supporting you than later when you are an adult trying to make a living and trying have time to write too.  Write from your heart and good luck to you.  Even if you don't finish it now you can save your ideas now, if they are written down.  It will be something valuable you can pick up years from now after you have more experience and knowlege to expand on the creative urge you have now.  Being a teenager is a special, perfect, human age, I think.  Make the most of your physical perfection, your idealism and egergy.  I am in my 50's and I just finished a novel about the expatriate experience under the title of Expatriate Heart.  You can look at it on Amazon.com.

You are so lucky, when I was your age, there were no word processors yet, typing on a typewriter was a painful laborious process teenagers only used for their school reports.  Writing a book is so much more doable now.  I sincerely encourage any young person to do anything that they want to do. Good luck but take breaks to keep yourself healthy by getting away from your keyboard to get some exercise and discover the outside world.

OMGosh. I just went on amazon.com and read the first couple of paragraphs and I am already astonished. I love the way you put it on a summer day. I have English class next and I'm going to encourage my teacher to read it. :thanks: when I become older and get out of high school I plan to travel to Italy and Japan. Besides writing my book I want to become a pastry chef and make a bakery in Italy. I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!:lol:
