It took awhile to finish it and edit it. It's still not perfect, but I was eleven!" At fifteen, she began her second book, Going for the Mountain and other short stories, which came out earlier this year. In between books she wrote a piece called Chasing Dreams which should be out later in the year. Beth is currently writing her fourth book and is interviewing athletes for research, as well as writing short stories.
