Support the Next Generation of Writers!

Post by Dawson Vosburg »

Hello. My name is Dawson Vosburg, and today I would like to tell you about two teen writers: a young man named Saul Marquez, and myself.

Saul Marquez is the author of "Space Dog and the Solar Stone Code," which is the first in the planned three books he is writing. He's a 17 year old from Arizona.

Here's a description for his book:
Space Dog doesn't know anything about his past. All he knows is that his earliest memories reflect his desire to keep the world safe from anyone who may threaten it. A dangerous enemy has emerged with a plan to steal the ancient Solar Stone, an item that is said to be able to destroy the sun and manipulate the very seams of the galaxy. What this foe doesn't know is that the Stone can't be used without cracking the Solar Stone Code. Now, Space Dog must crack the Code to put an end to this new threat. The fate of the galaxy depends upon this curious stone and the secrets that lie behind it.

I am Dawson Vosburg, and I'm a 14-year-old science fiction novelist from Indiana. My novel is called "Double Life" and is the first in the "Adventures of Josiah Jones" series. (The sequel is being revised right now.) Here's a quick description for my book:
What if you could leap into your own overactive imagination? And what if you met your imaginary friends there? What if it was real? This all happens to an intelligent, imaginative boy named Josiah Jones, who finds a portal into his own world. Now, stuck inside, he has to fight the battle of his life inside his own head. This remarkable piece of storytelling is fast, fresh, and fun, and keeps you engaged in this boy's strange double life between the imagined and the real.

These are both books that you can invest in to support the next generation of writers and young people's art in general. They are both science fiction, so if you enjoy that you will like these books.

You can find both of these on Amazon by searching for the authors' names.

Thank you for supporting young and independent artists like myself. If you have any links to works of young authors, feel free to post them here.

And hello to everyone on the forum! I'm new here, but I get the general idea...lol

Though the plots of the both of story books seem interested but to me personally second one looks more interesting. But I don’t mean disheartening your friend Saul Marquez. Writer’s job is to write on good topics, rest should be left upon the readers. So, concentrate more upon writing.

Not bad on the introduction. It's nice to meet some aspiring young generation of authors who share the same passion for writing. Good luck on your endeavor.

Nice work, I'm always impressed to see authors doing so well when they're so young. Age is never an indicator. Both sound rather intriguing, I too like the sound of the second. I shall indeed investigate further.

I will be looking for Double Life now, I am sure I'll love it. Looking forward to seeing more books by you as well.
