This was actually quite good, as far as writing books go! Completely clean, and with great advice. My only quibble is that it's outdated, since it was updated in (I believe) 2006. I'm definitely rereading some parts, and trying all the links they provided (although I expect some of them may be broken, since it is an old book). Four stars!

Interesting with lots of practical, helpful advice. Also, it assumes that writing isn't all that you do or necessarily what you want to do with your life. The authors had numerous pieces published as teens, including this book, but went on to become chemical engineers.

Not exactly what I need for this writing class, but good to know this resource is out there.

Great resource for teens and teachers of teens! Very straightforward with lots of good advice.

What's really cool about this book is that it was written by two teen sisters.
