Laura Marano is signed to Big Machine Records, and she is ready to release her debut album in 2016. We were already SO excited to hear her new tunes, but now we're literally freaking out because it was just revealed that the Austin & Ally actress is writing her own songs!

Laura's mom shared a photo of Laura penning some new tracks, along with sharing, "Laura writing songs! Takes a lot of work! #proudoflaura"

How incredible is it that Laura is taking the time to write her own tracks so her fans can hear them next year?
