I like writing about teenage or comedy epics, kids that get into severe 'street' trouble (poss. drugs, pregnancy). This would be for mature teens, and I thank anyone that answers, but please do it appropiately. All answers are appreciated. I know that writers use their own life expriences (sry spelling) and I plan on useing a huge part of it exactly like that (of course changing names, places, etc.) but for teh subjects I have not gone through, (drugs, teen pregnancy) I would like some insight. I'd like this to be a book like Smack by Melvin Burgess, or Crank like Ellen Hopkins. Thanks Again.

In her room at the prow of the house
Where light breaks, and the windows are tossed with linden,
My daughter is writing a story.

I pause in the stairwell, hearing
From her shut door a commotion of typewriter-keys
Like a chain hauled over a gunwale.

Young as she is, the stuff
Of her life is a great cargo, and some of it heavy:
I wish her a lucky passage.

But now it is she who pauses,
As if to reject my thought and its easy figure.
A stillness greatens, in which

The whole house seems to be thinking,
And then she is at it again with a bunched clamor
Of strokes, and again is silent.

I remember the dazed starling
Which was trapped in that very room, two years ago;
How we stole in, lifted a sash

And retreated, not to affright it;
And how for a helpless hour, through the crack of the door,
We watched the sleek, wild, dark

And iridescent creature
Batter against the brilliance, drop like a glove
To the hard floor, or the desk-top,
And wait then, humped and

It starts with a trader who sells his white horse to a knight of king Arthur's round table. He's taken to a room and allowed to pick any treasure to trade for his hourse. He picks a brimstone gem

Then two children a boy called Colin and a girl arrive at a town to stay with family (a town in Yorkshire-can't remember where)

Anyway, the two children discover the brimstone and start getting chased by these ugly evil creatures. I can't remember much else, sorry.

I hope someone can help as I'd love that book

My 9 year old recently wrote a 30 page story he is interested in having published. I don't wish to discourage him in this endeavor as I believe it is an admriable and constructive one. Does anyone know about resources for child authors? Are there laws regarding children having books published? Is self-publishing the only way to go? If anyone has any suggestions as to where to start, I, and my son would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!

I just finished re-reading the books and i think i have come to the conclusion that there will never be a series like this one again. These books are my childhood, and now 19 i am still in love with them. I think there is a bond between people and these books that cannot be broken. I will be very sad when the 7th book comes out and i finish that last page, but i think all good things must come to an end. Maybe someday i will find another series like it, so if you have any suggestions that would be great.

Thanks,
And to HP the greatest series i have ever known.
