Success in six months!

Six months since my last post. Implemented my plan to write, revise, and send out short stories to publishers. Six months later I received an email from Fountain Magazine informing me I'd won "Honorable Mention" in their 2014 writing contest. Yippie! Not only will my story Twenty Forty-Six be published in Fountain Magazine's 100th issue this summer, a cash prize of $200 was awarded too! Publication and money. So excited. Now I can call myself an author, not simply a writer. Inspired I move forward writing, revising, and sending off my short stories to publishers.
