RED Hearts: Teen Writers Rule

RED Hearts, the first-ever national trendspotting service for teens by teens, launched last week on I Heart Daily.

RED Hearts will be published every Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday through February. Readers can subscribe to the I Heart Daily newsletter for regular delivery of these peer-to-peer style and culture recommendations.

Written by a dream team of 58 published teenage RED the Book authors, reporting from New York City to Nevada, Los Angeles to Louisiana, and everywhere in between, RED Hearts provides girls ages 13 and up with recommendations on everything from the original 1960s Agent 99’s “extreme level of awesome” to how you find just the right Bob the Builder-Gossip Girl balance when wearing flannel.

Check out some recent entries, and revel in these girls, who truly rule:

Saskia Boggs, 18, writes about an end-all acne treatment

Jessica Goodman, 19, writes about loving Katy Perry

Zulay Regalado, 20, writes about her new favorite fashion label

Hi....
Since 1964, publishing has changed drastically. As a result, it is now even easier to publish books written by children and adults. ... So, how old do you have to be to publish a book? You can be any age, as long as there is an adult ready to help.
