I’ve been writing books since I was 12, but my main issue was I would get so excited about the possibility of being published, that I would rush the writing process and not take the time to edit.
What’s your advice for other young writers like yourself?īe patient.
Growing up, all I wanted to do was write young adult books, but the market just got harder and harder, and it seemed impossible for a long time. Those are the books that, no matter what was happening in my life, would transport me away. I grew up in the golden age of YA with books like Twilight, Hunger Games, Matched, Shatter Me, Legend, and An Ember in the Ashes. Part of me believes no one will guess all of the plot twists. You don’t know who is lying, everyone has a secret, and there are a ton of betrayals. There’s a line that says, “There are lies and liars all around you…” And that’s exactly what I would tell readers about the book.
