Today is the day

Well, great news!

Another article of mine has been accepted! I was contacted by the editor of the magazine awhile back for a 'rush' article she needed done. I got that done in a 'rush' and it will be published this month.

She sends me another message yesterday, asking if I'd be interested in writing another article she needs for next month. I ask her for a sample and she sends me one this morning.

I thought: What the heck? Why not? It's a great way to get tearsheets.

So, I start fooling around with an idea and an hour and a half later, I send her my first draft.

She emails me back so excited and happy. She loved my draft and said she'd be willing to publish it, as is! And says she's impressed how fast and great I am.

Now, I'm not trying to stroke my own ego here, because I know these are not major kick-ass articles. Actually, all three articles accepted by this magazine were non-fiction, life articles.

But I am feeling pretty damn good! And it inspired me to write another article which I want to send in to another magazine. Yes, a paying one.

I finished that article today, as well.

So I must admit, it's been a pretty productive day. I taught three classes, wrote two articles.

One has been accepted already and the other is now sitting patiently, while I do my Market Research Analysis and hopefully that will be out by the weekend.

Now, I have an inkling of what my life will feel like if I reach my goal of writing from home.

Today, I feel like a writer :)
