I've written a fanfic about Knight Rider! I started it when the first movie was over... It is soo cool! I placed myself in there too. In there my name is Holly...

I'm really bad at writing about myself.

It's ok. I think that it's wuite easy if you just practice and know yourself a little...

I can write anything if I'm not a character. I'm a published writer.

REALLY??!!! That's actually one of my dreams to be. (sigh)
I have lots of completed stories for a lot of age groups. Mostly fantasy though...

I had an essay published in the magazine Teen Ink when I was a freshman in high school. I also wrote several articles for my HS yearbook, and press releases for various events that were put into the local paper.

I wish to be a published writer also. I also use myself in my fanfic. I have some overoganization problems...hehe.

No, when you're pitching something you've written, the more organized, the better. That's what publishers go for.

I put a table of contents in my writing binder. I organize what I put in my pockets- final copies (printed-of course) in the front, other stuff that I want to keep ahold of in the back. I wish my room were that organized.

If you're pitching something to an editor, they're more likely to pick you up if they don't have to go searching for stuff in your binder. I would also suggest backing up your computer files on a flash-drive (USB port external hard drive), a floppy disc (those are less reliable) or CD rom.

I guess. I just don't feel I do very good in the story category, I'm a big poetry person. But I still try.
