Here's one that has bothered me for a long time... I am writing (as I always am) a children's fantasy novel that I hope to submit to an agent this year. It's a fairly dark, spooky story in a magical setting, starring an ordinary girl. I only have one problem with it...
I'm only 21.
Is that enough life experience to be writing anything? Can a person's style be sufficiently mature by that age? Will an agent look at the DOB and dismiss the submission? I'd appreciate some thoughts on this!
I'm 21 and I've just started writing my first novel =] So I hope it's not too young, because I'm 20,000 words into it now. ha
Good luck with your novel!
well brotha, you aren't young, i am 19 and writing a very nice novel :)
profession depends upon work not age.
I am currently 27 I started writing and working to publish my own work when I was about your age and there is no time like the present. I must say that over the years, with the experience, your writing may mature, but I think it most depends on the individual, who is to say that your work is not already of great quality? I just think you need to write and enjoy your craft.
