Published teen authors?

answers1: Three very famous ones: <br>
<br>
Mary Shelley - Frankenstein <br>
Françoise Sagan - Bonjour Tristesse <br>
S. E. Hinton - The Outsiders <br>
<br>
Take a look at the list on Wikipedia
answers2: Only ones I know of recently are Christopher Paolini at 15
and Amelia Atwater Rhodes at 14 (publishing agreement at 14, actual
publication at 15). <br>
<br>
However, Paolini's parents owned a publishing company. <br>
<br>
Atwater Rhodes showed her work to a teacher who was connected somehow
to the publishing industry and got very lucky.
answers3: Yashvardhan Shukla is one of them...
answers4: Commercially published teens I know of are: <br>
Christopher Paolini and Alexandra Adornetto. I haven't read the first
book, but many people say it's rubbish. I have read the second book
and it is atrocious! I'm purely judging on what I read, not her age.
<br>
Quite a few teens get self-published, which anyone with a bit of bob
to spare can do. Not to downgrade it or anything, since it's good if
you want a few copies for your friends and family, but honestly don't
expect many readers. <br>
You might see a few teens on this website that state they are an
author, but it's usually because they don't know the difference
between a writer and an author (or they got self-published). Those two
reasons are the most likely.

Thanks to Craig Edgman, Teacher-librarian, for compiling this list. <br>
There is one more who has been publishing independantly and who has
now been officially signed to a traditional print publisher. I'll add
her name and age to the list as well. I think it is Amanda Hocking.
answers6: Depends on what you mean by "published". <br>
<br>
Anyone can vanity publish provided they have a parent or guardian who
is prepared to sign the contracts and pay the bills. Anyone. There is
no quality control _at all_. <br>
<br>
Published teen authors who you might have heard of? S E Hinton,
Christopher Paolini...and now I'm struggling.
