Answer 1

That's great you're wanting to plan ahead at a young age! People need more thoughts of their future.

For starters, it won't be easy. At all. You'll need to dedicate yourself to hard work, effort, and time. Five minutes a day isn't exactly going to cut it. If you're already good in English and/or writing, you have an advantage. If you don't, it's a good idea to start hitting those books (not literally)!

Still, even if you ARE a good writer it takes more than meets the eye. Good practice would be to write short stories to start off your goal. Share them with friends and family - your teacher, even! Ask them all what you can do to make your stories better and improve. You'll be surprised if you look at a story before you started working and after.

If you think you're getting better, then go on writing stories longer and longer! Go ahead and write a book. Of course you'll need to spread your horizons, be creative, and think of your own ORIGINAL plot/storyline. If you work hard enough and put yourself and dedication in your writing, it'll show.

People will read and love it - all you need is the right steps
