It was on her 14th birthday that her first book, In the Forests of the Night, was put into publication (出版). At 16, her second book, Demon in My View, also reached the bookstore. Several books later, the teenage writer still works away in her room, in which were shelves full of dark stories about vampires (吸血鬼)and witches (巫婆). Amelia Atwater-Rhodes is seen as America’s finest teen writer and was named one of Teen People’s “20 Teens Who will Change the World”.
Born in 1984, she began making up stories when she was three years old. Amelia said: “I love stories and can make up stories before I was told enough to know how to write them down.”
In her family, reading was great fun. “My parents encouraged me to read and to read anything I wanted, so long as I was reading,” she said. “They never stop what I read and never make me read the books I don’t enjoy. Later, when I started writing, they never told me that I was ‘too young to do that’. They never said it was impossible for me to get what I want. ”
In her short but successful career, Amelia has tried different stories. But vampires were the first characters to really come alive in her work. From then on, she has developed a whole world, one which she always enjoys learning more about.
Amelia’s advice to the teen writers is: just do it! “I believe anything is possible. Don’t give up on your dreams. Getting a book published is difficult but if I can do it, others can do it too. ”
