Annabelle (Alex) Tready asked Brooke Nelson:

how old were you when you published your first book? what would you say to young readers and authors as advice?

Brooke Nelson Hi there, Alex! I was twenty-one when I published my first book. Looking back on 'The Half Theft,' I feel I have grown much in my writing, stylistically, but I am still so proud of what I accomplished at that age and in that stage of my life. My #1 bit of advice for young readers and authors is to just go for it! Everyone has a story worth telling. Whether that is a personal story, an epic fantasy, or something else entirely, each of us has a book inside of us. And that story, I promise you, is well worth telling.
