who have a whole different life in another

characters; I like characters who have
secrets and do the unexpected.
Teen: So how did you take the step to publish your
work?
Beth: Well I gave these stories to friends to read
and they loved them. My mum said I should
try and publish them, so I sent my work
to lots of different publishers but nobody
wanted it.
Teen: Nobody?
Beth: No Id been sending stories to publishers
for two years and theyd been sending
them back and one day I just thought, Ill
publish them myself.
Teen: How did you do that?
Beth: Well, basically you can publish anything as an
e-book. You have to do all the layout yourself,
so its quite a bit of work. Luckily I had a
friend who had already done this, so he
helped me a lot.
