i am in the 8th grade and i am about to be a freshmen and i want to know how i can go about getting my book in print and how can i get it copyrighted?

here's a look at it (beware it is all done and i will sue anyone who thinks they can try to claim it as their own!!!!!!!!)

The two sister kingdoms were at war. they were both fighting to find one person, a girl by the name of Luna A. James.
I am Luna A. James.
 
This is a perennial question that crops up at least once a week.
First off it's unlikely (but not totally unknown) for some one of your age group to get into mainline print.
You can find all the information you need in the Writers' and Artists' Yearbook or Writer's Market.
Be careful with the internet as not all publishers or agents are honest.

Alternatively you can pay, or get your parents to pay, to have your book published. This is called vanity publishing and it doesn't have the best of reputations.

Finally you can have your book published by 'On Demand Print' where a book is printed only when it is ordered. You still have to pay for the set-up charges but it's a lot less expensive than vanity publishing.

It's your choice but if I were you I'd find an agent who will give you an honest appraisal of your work before you go to any expense.
