How to be a teen author

This blog is all you need to know about How to be a teen author.

The world as us teenagers know it, is hard. With the publishers only truly focusing on the many competitive authors thriving for that spotlight. What about us? What about teenagers that have the talent and wish to have our work in a book, on that shelf, being a bestseller.

Talking from experience, becoming a teenage author is tricky yet soon after you'll find that it does pay off later on with the right marketing ideas and connections. The perks of writing a novel, you and others will find that your punctuations, grammar and layouts will improve. Because with practice, comes perfection. So start off by writing a few chapters (Or if you have already got passed that step and is half way with your fabulous novel, then go back to Chapter one and edit some bad usage of sentences.) I found multiple grammar and punctuation mark mistakes in the first few chapters as I re–read my work over. Because publishers look for well scripted manuscripts and they don't care if you're only a teen.

But anyways, the key to success is to push yourself further than you can ever imagine. You don't need to own the riches laptop or PC to write a book, nor do you need to have the money! All you really need is motivation (could also imply to Family & Friends Support), patience, and that passion for writing.

Now a days, the social media looks for fresh news to put out there to the public. This is great to start off with, because you're getting that exposure and slowly getting known. However, if you really want to get known, start with blogging. Yes, its hard to have school exams, plus still worry about your friends and younger siblings. If you really want this, then I'm sorry to say but you'll have to pay less attention to friends (not saying that you have to cut them off completely!) Just spend less time with them but still talk to them after you get your social interactions on the internet done.

Remember: You want to get yourself, and your work out there so make sure to join Blogging, make a Facebook Fan Page, ★Twitter yourself and your writing★, Make a YouTube video of yourself and your work explaining that you're a teenage writer. There are so many online writing websites that you can write out one of your stories and market that as a sample of your creative imagination.

If you take a look at my last blog on the right —> you'll see that I posted where you can write your fabulous stories in the meantime for FREE and get fans.

Remember this: Your fans is who makes you famous. Justin Bieber is only famous because of the millions of girls all loving his looks and catchy songs. So get known out there and before you know it, your fans will be doing the rest for you!

Hope this blog helped you. Will he giving more info in future blogs to help teenagers become famous!

Hi there, I'm Kimite Cancino. I'm 16 years old and published my first novel. After finishing my first book, new ideas formed in my head to write more stories. I didn't know where to write all the stories that were inside my head, and paper around the house wasn't good enough. So I was overly-joyed when I stumbled across Wattpad

Wattpad is an online website, offering writers a place to Upload and Writer their exciting stories for FREE.  Upon Uploading a chapter each day, I soon learnt to discover that there was many other people across the globe posting, uploading, giving their thoughts about your stories, as well as following you. Its a great way to connect with other writers and your growing fans.

You can write any category at any length. Upload thoughts of your stories, with the terms and conditions, serving you All the Rights and Reserves.

Here's an example of how a story that's been uploaded on Wattpad looks like:

Book signing Hirsch Milnerton Store

Kimite Cancino had a book signing on the 17 November 2012, at Hirsch's.

On arrival, Kimite went straight to the array of vintage cars in front of Hirsch's store. They were lining up to proceed on there long journey around Cape Town. It gave Kimite great pleasure of meeting some of the drivers and taking pictures with each vintage car in the parking lot.











After the vintage cars had left, Kimite set up her table and decorated it with colorful balloons, with the help of Hirsch's staff of course.
Kimite met lots of people, gave advice on where to get published and where to write online. She even met a nine year old girl that writes stories as well and inspired her to go for her dreams and not throw it away.

Thunder in Cape Town


On the 12 November at 19:42pm, the rain started to pour all over Cape Town.


Photo taken by: Kimite Cancino
Soon after the rain started, we all started to hear loud BOOM's and light flashes through the windows. Kimite was sitting on the couch talking with her family members when she saw a huge flash of lightning. She immediately grabbed her cannon camera and started to snap shots of the beautiful flash lights.


While in the progress of snapping shots, Kimite heard her sister, Sacha frantically call her from the other room. Knowing typical Kimite to be the drama queen she is, she thought the worst and thought maybe the lighting took its toll on her house. So she abandoned taking pictures and ran to see why her sister was calling her.




Kimite laughed at what she saw. Little Benjie (A family member and greatly beloved by owner Sacha) was nicely sleeping on a fluffy purple bean-bag chair looking so cute!

Then suddenly the loudest BANG corrupted causing little baby Benjie to awake, startled.  




 Kimite's family laughed at Benjie's cuteness and gave Benjie a good patting on he's tiny head, saying "Only Benjie."

Keep safe everyone.
"Only Benjie knows" By Kimite and Sacha Cancino
