When did you write Ella enchanted?

Julia Bryant
Julia Bryant asked Gail Carson Levine:

Your books are all so amazing! I remember reading the Two Princesses of Barmarre when I was younger and relating so much with Addie. So thrilled for the prequel! Are there any tips you would give to an aspiring young writer? I find that I'll start a story and then have difficulty finding the drive to continue to make it into a book.
