You could definitely get published in a junior anthology that recognises talent/prolificness for your age, but being frank, most young teenagers (and old teenagers, people in their 20s, etc) don't have the life experience to write compelling stories, and even if you're an exception, publishers are going to see your age and make assumptions.

Either your work is truly kick-ass and they'll stop caring, or they'll reject you. If they're nice, they're likely to refer you to junior anthologies as I alluded to above.

Don't let me discourage your passion, though; if you start young, you'll only grow more with time. You'll be publishable with time and self-awareness; once you become old and self-critical enough to find your flaws and what edges you need to hone, you'll grow to the point where publication isn't just on the cards, but highly likely.
