Boys Of Blood And Bone by David Metzenthen

I really LOVE, LOVE, LLOOVVEE your book Finn and the Big Guy. I read it in two days. I am ten years old and I am willing to publish a book but I don't know how I go about getting an idea. I love horses and ride them every week. Any ideas? PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE! Email me back and give some ideas or ways to get ideas to publish a book. Write the subject to the email as 'Amber'. I am looking forward to your email.
