I sold my story, too

Article Abstract:

People who sell their story to a tabloid newspaper often do so out of deep despair, according to Marion Smith, who was herself in this situation following a brief affair with a local doctor. She was widely condemned by neighbours, and sold her story in order to raise funds to allow her family to move to another location. She felt that the newspaper report debased her relationship with the doctor, and that she had been exploited by the journalists concerned.

So I'm 19 and I write. Big deal

Article Abstract:

There is a widespread belief that young people should not transcend their own experience, according to Jenn Crowell, who wrote her novel 'Necessary Madness' when she was only 17. She does not believe that the novel is the work of a 17-year-old, and it is certainly more interesting and complex than would be expected from a person of that age. She feels that she has always been a writer, and does not regard writing as a way of making sense of her life.
