YTBPA: Catherine WhiteRose

And our second YTBPA (in her own words)

Catherine WhiteRose

I enjoy writing because it lets me create my own world. I first started writing books when I was about nine.

The only books I am working on now is "The Autumn of The Fall".

It is about an elf who joins a clan (called ROWAN Clan) and strange things start happening since. Now they hear of news that the evil elf FeatherWing is on the move....and his destination? ROWAN Clan.

It is important to know you charaters like a friend. (examples: what is their favorite color? Who are their parents? Do they have any sibblings? If so, how many and what are their names?) This will make your charater more real to you, and though you, the reader.


The book was off of a game we made up in a creek, and based off of real people.

Authors I suggest:
Victoria Kasten
Brian Jacques
Christopher Paolini
Erin Hunter
Alex and Brett Harris

Our First "YTBPA", Black Jaguar

A "Yet-to-be-published Author (YTBPA)" already! So, without further ado...

Black Jaguar

Writing since he was nine, Black Jaguar does it "'cause it's fun". The books that he's working on now are The Assassin's Knife and The Monster in the Shower. He thinks that the second one mentioned will be published. Black Jaguar's summary of the book: "Something evil, something mysterious, something dangerous is lurking in the shower. And it's up to Wally and Mo, six year old twins, to kill it and protect their home."
The main characters in his book are Wally and Mo, and their older brother, Ryan. Wally is cautious and will probably grow up to be a rocket-scientist. Mo, a daredevil, is a future archeologist, lion tamer, or explorer, and Ryan..."He's a typical older brother," Black Jaguar says. "Gave Wally his first i-pod and gameboy!" None of the main characters are based on anybody in particular, just a mix of personalities Black Jaguar has encountered.
The authors Black Jaguar suggests to read are Brian Jacques, Bill Myers, and John Erickson.
His writing tip is: Don't write for the audience, and don't be dismayed if someone doesn't like your book. There's always going to be someone out there who doesn't like your book.

And there you have it. I might not do the layout like that next time, so they'll all look pretty different. Next time I might do it a lot like a chart.
