This month I started life as a full time writer. I've had lots of jobs before: milkman, postman, bookseller, librarian, joy stick repairer - but now I'm a writer.
I wrote a book about a boy who loves football and wants to solve crimes.
Football Detective: Foul Play.
I tried several agents (you need to get an agent before you find a publisher, usually), but none of them liked it. Then I found out about an agent who supported the same team as me. Leeds United.
I sent it to the agent - and a month later he'd got me a book deal with Puffin.
And now I'm a full time writer. My dreams have come true.
Being a writer is not boring. Not if you write about football, anyway.
Today was not easy, though. I kept getting distracted.
For a start there's the internet. News about the football. We're still in the transfer window. There may be new players signed.
Also, it's the African Nations Cup - live on TV.
And then there's Sky Sports News.
Tomorrow I'm going out to write in the library.
