Nielsen wrote this poorly constructed sentence when she was eleven. And while she isn't exactly famous, she did predict her future. She got her start writing for the hit TV series┬аDegrassi Junior High┬аand went on to write for more than twenty Canadian shows. Susin is the author of five critically acclaimed and award-winning titles, including┬аOptimists Die First,┬аWe Are All Made of Molecules, and┬аThe Reluctant Journal of Henry K. Larsen.┬а
Nielsen lives in Vancouver with her family and two naughty cats.┬а
