I'm Getting Published!

Hooray - I haven't had anything published in a while (I don't usually do that kind of writing anymore) but this one is particularly cool! I just found out that my college's literary mag is going to publish my essay. Isn't that nifty?

Very cool. I had a poem published once in a book years ago. Feels pretty good to get something published. Congratulations.

I was published in my college literary/arts publication: the story sucked, in retrospect, but I was pretty young. That's my excuse anyway.

Good job Juni!

Yep, it's Fogdog. Supposed to come out in June.

Next time, I need to get published somewhere that PAYS me.

I've already done that, but it's been quite a while. Most of the time I get paid to write for folks that don't give me a byline, you know, like sales brochures & stuff.
