I Blog, Therefore I am

May. 31, 2005 - WA-HOO!!!

    Nothing beats the thrill of selling an article! Of course, I say "selling" in a general term - the piece I "sold" today will only get me a byline. BUT... it's a nice magazine with a glossy cover, and it was my first query to the editor. He said, quote, "The story is interesting and worthwhile, I like it." WA-HOO!!!!

    Gena, I promise this is not something you'd want to publish - it's a western magazine. Now, if you'll excuse me, I think I'll go do a little victory dance while I enjoy this wonderful feeling (and forget about the 100 and 1 other editors I have yet to hear back from!) Once more, a hearty WA-HOO!!!!

Post A Comment!

May. 31, 2005 - RIGHT ON!!!

Congratulations. It's a real affirmation from God when you finally get published, isn't it? I just got my first article published in a homeschool magazine this week and have just been elated. I'm rejoicing with you!!!
Blessings,
Nancy

You go girl! I am sure there are many more opportunities that will come your way.

I still can not believe I was published in our local parenting magazine. Seeing my name in bright lights (OK, just in black and white) was nothing less than thrilling so I know how you feel.

Let's keep in touch.

I have blogged about some freelance writing opportunities over at my other blog http://homeschoolmomblog.com.

I have also set up a category on my homeschoolblogger.com blog for freelance writing.

I will get it up, well, hopefully soon!

About Me

Here I am with Patrick Healy and Anthony Kearns (of Three Tenors fame), after an impromptu serenade. "Happy Birthday" sung by Anthony Kearns... it doesn't get much better than that!
