    Hello, my name is Sarah. I am 14 years old, and I know that I am young, but I understand that I have a talent in creativity. Anyways, I was wondering if I should publish a book. That is somthing that I very much want to do. Also, I was hoping if you can tell me about my grammar. What do you think of this so far? I saw a post before, where someone got posted about their grammar, and I thought maybe you can tell me how I could improve. Well first of all, I want to write a book on the following subjects:
    1) Just poetry.
    2) Growing up missunderstood.
    3) The mysteries of the soul.

    To be perfectly honest with you, I think you should change the wording in a sentence of yours from, "...I was wondering if I should publish a book," to, "...I was wondering if I can publish a book."  Problem is, getting published with a legitimate company is hard as hell these days, particularly for many younger writers who may not have proven themselves yet in the eyes of the professional writing world. 

    You've got plenty of time to work on and improve your craft; do that first, and maybe a few years down the road, take another look at possibly getting published.
