I've been a writer since I was a little kid. Filling notebooks with hastily scrawled fantasy stories about dragons, elves and all that other fun stuff. As I grew up, my writing continued until here I am today.
It's 2 AM and I just received an email accepting one of my short stories to be published in an Australian magazine called "This Mutant Life." Honestly, half of me is dying to just scream and dance like a madwoman, and the other half of me is too stunned to believe it. :D The magazine is set to come out in January, and I'm hoping and praying nothing changes before then!!! So I just had to share my good news. I can't explain how much this means to me!!! |
Yaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

That is so exciting! I'm very happy for you.
All I've ever had published were research papers. I really would like to be a "published author", also. That is a real accomplishment. |
That is awesome! Go ahead and do some cyber screaming.
|
Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm happy for you, too! It's GREAT!

|
That is great! I hope it opens a whole new world for your creative writing. Congratulations!
|
Oh, go ahead and scream! Congratulations!
I've had poems published, photos published, but that's all. Would love for more, but don't write much anymore. You go girl! |
That is fantabulous!! The heck with the neighbors, it's happy dance time.
|
Congratulations! Let's hear you scream in California!

Wonderful news! Congrats. :thumbup:
|

|
Congrats! How awesome is that! Whoot-Whoot!
|
WooHoo!!!! I'm doing the happy dance for you!!! You go girl!!!
|
I so happy for you!! I am a newly retired teacher and I miss teaching writing. I am glad that your hard work finally paid off.

Congratulations!!! A friend of mine just had her second book published. She writes young adult fantasy kindof. We used to refer to her a STBFA Stef, but now she is our PUBLISHED Author Stef. Her second book just came out about two weeks ago, and it is as good as her first, but I think better. I have bought copies and had her sign them for me and I have put them away for someday. Someday when I have a granddaughter she might enjoy them. And with her talent they may be really worth something years down the road.
We were all laughing because of her covers. Both covers have young girls in their Renaissance underwear. But of course the people doing the photos, etc., don't know that. But Stef and her husband are really into the Ren Fairs. Se says that she can't sew - yeah right - but she makes all of their costumes without patterns. Including a corset with boning, lots of embellishments, leather work. I am just in awe of her skills - sewing and writing. |
Congratulations!!! How incredibly exciting!!!!!
|
WOW YOU GO GIRL. KICK AND SCREAM AND HAPPY DANCE ALL YOU WANT. well done
|
Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
Gosh that is great! I have 10 novels in various stages with two finished. I kind of woos out on getting them published. I think what you did is wonderful!
|
Congratulations, as someone else here said this moves you from being a writer to being an author, no small feat.
|
Yipee!! Congratulations
|
A BIG BIG BIG YIPPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE from Texas!!
Great Job!! |
Oh, go ahead, do the happy dance. Congratulations.
