You could also look for writings by young chess players at article level, which would expand the scope somewhat.
James and myself invited Theo Slade to write for BCM when were both working for BCM.

Theo was twelve when he wrote his first BCM article. Now a resident of Orlando, Florida and doing very well for himself.
You have written previously of the financial challenges at BCM - but I had no idea that you reverted to child labour :shock:

More to the point. should we be reading publications by 12 year olds? In my opinion it just doesn't seem right but then its not so surprising that it has happened.
