Hope -
Lots of people would say the situation you described is unrealistic, but I've got the same problem. I'm only in seventh grade and I've written a novel. I have no idea how to get it published - who publishes stuff by a twelve-year-old? A couple of my friends have read my book, and they think it's pretty good, but I haven't shown it to any adults yet. What should I do?

What about young writers - young teens who are still in high school or middle school, who have manuscripts that are pretty good but don't know how to publish them? I mean, Andew Clements book about the sixth grader getting published seems pretty unrealistic. THeoretically, if the book's good enough, it gets published - but how do you even get it to the publisher?
