I always get confused on the difference between a novel and book. The one I self-published is about 154,000 words. It falls under the genre of science fiction.
I published my first one at 43. Had two miscarriages, followed by the most beautiful twins in the middle of writing my first book ? Needless to say, it took YEARS to finish ?? (it also ended up being a little more than the light YA I had expected. Motherhood will do that to you :)) Happy Thursday ♥️
Nine. I️ did it in school. If I️ liked a classmate, then she’d be a good guy. If I️ didn’t, then the evil witch. The weird thing is that some were both. I️ think my mom still has it.

I’ll be 61 when mine comes out in April. Never too late!
I wrote my first one at around age 41. And I published my first one at 47. I’ve published 20 since. 🙂 So yeah…it’s been a fun career change.
40 – First written book, 56- first published book
first book wrote at 38, published at 54
I started at 60. I’m 69 now and working on the 4th book, and I have 240 short stories.
I was 60 years old, never give up!
I was 13, but that first book actually turned out to be thinly veiled self-insert fanfiction. I had no idea what fanfiction was back then, though.
I️ also wrote fanfic without knowing it existed. I️ just wrote about a show I️ liked.
63
I wrote my first “book” when I was 9, but got serious about writing at 21 and published my first book with Scholastic when I was 25.
How many books do you have?
@Toni Between new and old and reprints, I think eleven individual stories that are both traditionally and Indie published. 🙂
