Funny story, easy to read, interesting, witty... Will be fun seeing Louise Arnold books in the library in the future and know how it all started
Btw, look at all the fantastic comments by people! Not a negative one among them.

Just added my comments, but I forgot to mention that this part...
I love you, Lou. Marry me. I have a small annex-style cupboard in my room with your name on it.
edit:
... had me smiling yet welling up. How is that possible?

Great stuff Damini, I put a nice comment on there. Pity about the minority of intellectual gits on there. They should 'grow down' and remember what being a child is like.
I'd take comparisons to J K Rowling as a big compliment. I met her just before she really hit the big time, I didn't have a clue who she was, but she was very pleasant, unassuming, and very accommodating (it was a freezing cold day, and at Edinburgh castle!).
I want exclusive rights to film you when you become as famous

This is all a bit harsh really.
She's being thrown into the deep end when I'd imagine most writers would have months and years of preperation before worrying about things like public opinion and publishers.
I don't know how long you've been writing, maybe you do feel ready to make a profession of it. Just don't feel like you have to reach the big-time tomorrow, should take it easy and try and enjoy it.

it worries me at some of the comments the "This is just Harry Potter ripped off!!!111oneone"
*puzzles*
have these people even read Harry Potter?
it's a children's story - therefore it has some similar elements to other children's stories
It's a writing style, it's pretty hard not to write in a style dissimilar to every other writing style - or people just won't be able to read it I imagine surprised they're not complaining it's ripping off shakespeare because it's in prose..
OMG! it's got a boy in it! Harry Potter had a boy in it! that's such a rip off!
