At 14, writing fanfic is a wonderful way to learn to write. I wrote fanfic til I was about 17. The next 12 years I spent practicing writing original stuff.

Does your daughter know about National Novel Writing Month? She should look into it (google NaNoWriMo), it’s a ton of fun. I’ve done it ten years running.

She has never heard of “National Novel Writing Month”.

Thanks for the info.
