First of all i
have very strong feelings about this subject just thought you should know
before i get started. Second of all let's get down the basic facts right. We have
been told that Zoella got help writing her book. Let's start with what we know
Zoella says about this subject:
So know we know as a fact that she got help but that
does NOT mean that she had a ghostwriter! (this is also a fact Penguin have agreed on)
Am i the only one that would find it wired if she
hadn't gotten any help?! Like she has never written a book before like of cause
she needs help!
And let's not forget a very sad but true fact that
there will always be bitches trying to drag other people down!
And if you are trying to drag Zoella down because she sold
more books that the first Harry Potter then just think logical for a sec! No
one knew of Harry Potter back then like of cause it took a while for people to
find it!
But there was already about 3.000.000 that knew about
Girl Online and many of those people were waiting to buy it from the day they heard about it!
Another fact is that the book's acknowledgements
credit Siobhan Curham, an author, and Amy Alward, editorial director at
Penguin, for being "with me every step of the way".
The thing is i don't understand why poeple say that
Curham and Alward couldn't be with Zoella every step on the way WITOUT them
being ghostwriters!
Penguin has said:
"As publishers our role is, and always has been, to find the very best
talents and help them tell their story and connect them with readers. Talented
YouTube entrepreneurs such as Zoe are brilliant at understanding and
entertaining their audience. For her first novel, Girl Online, Zoe has worked
with an expert editorial team to help her bring to life her characters and
experiences in a heartwarming and compelling story. We are delighted that Girl
Online is engaging so many young people with the pleasure of reading. We are
proud to have been able to help Zoe tell her story..."'
By this statement from Penguin i believe that we can conclude
that yes she got help but it is entirely her story and her characters.
And if you look at any other book written by any other
authors then who has not said that their book couldn't have come to life if not
for certain people.
If you read it all i'm grateful and i would love to
hear your opinion on this subject!
