After playing Final Fantasy 9, I was inspired to write my own stories. Now, at 13, my chances of getting published are very silm, or are they?

No.

There is a service on the internet called E-Books, where you sell your books online. Say, you could sell a download for £5 each. You send a company your work and if they accept it, you will get cash coming in soon hopefully from royalties etc. I am currently working on my first novel, Chaos Crisis.

I'll keep you updated by my sig.

better idea:

Write songs... bear with me.

Ok, I write a song. I send it to a company, and they get, say, robbie williams to make it (don't ask me why I chose him!).

So, he goes on TOTP before the song comes out. he gets £0 for this- he is promoting his song! I get £600 for EVERY time this song is heard or shown on TV... live or in an ad or whatever!

Before song release, radios play the song. Robbie gets £0. I get £60 for every time it is played. Now, Radio 1 like the song, so it is played AT LEAST 4 times a day. £240. There are 10 major radio stations. £2400/day. It os shown on mtv a couple of times a day. £3600/day. =£25,200/week! Robbie has made nothing yet!

Then the song actually come out a week later. And then robbie gets money from royalties. As do you.

Song writer are LIGHT YEARS ahead of singers!
