Hey everyone,

I'm new to this forum and really excited about getting some support for my writing. Do you guys know any good books about writing specifically for teens? The only one that I have really useful is 'Writing Advice for Teens' by Richard Morris (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01C372H4Y)

Do you guys know any others?

I really doubt there's a substancial difference in writing tips, whether you are a teen or not. If fact, I find it sort of add that this guy has written such a book specifically only for teens.

And how long are you going to be a teen? Are the writing tips in this book not going to help you much later on? I'm sure they are, and then to that end; why not read a bigger, more acclaimed book on writing?

We actually have a thread for books on writing:
Books on writing

Lots of good suggestions in that thread. I'd personally recommend Stephen King's 'On Writing', because rather than dealing with all the technicals, he talks a lot about what /makes/ him write. And how he does it.
